The first part focuses on the necessity of public prayer, arguing that it is a means of expressing gratitude to God, seeking forgiveness for sins, and asking for divine guidance and protection. Beveridge also emphasizes the importance of praying together as a community, as it strengthens the bonds of fellowship and encourages mutual support and encouragement.The second part of the book focuses on the importance of frequent communion, or the regular participation in the sacrament of the Eucharist. Beveridge argues that communion is a means of receiving spiritual nourishment and strength, and that it is essential for the maintenance of a strong and vibrant faith. He also emphasizes the importance of approaching the sacrament with humility, reverence, and a deep sense of gratitude for God's grace and mercy.Throughout the book, Beveridge draws on biblical and historical examples to support his arguments, and he also provides practical advice for how to incorporate public prayer and frequent communion into one's daily life.
