50 Ways to Pray

Autor Teresa A. Blythe
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2006

For individual or group use It is my hope that this book will provide at least fifty ways you may take steps in a lifelong walk with God. It is written for you, the seeker and sojourner, as well as you, the church leader, youth minister, retreat facilitator, or worship planner. It is for all of us who thought we only knew one way to pray.
--from the introduction

"" The explosion of interest today in Christian mystics, ancient prayer practices, and guided meditations speaks to a need for more hands-on tools that will help us pray in traditional as well as new and exciting ways. This book is intended to address that need.

Each of the exercises includes not only instructions on how to use it as a prayer practice, but also some background, an introduction, a statement of intention, and tips to help you become comfortable with the practice. For those of you wanting to lead these practices in a group, there are special instructions and information in the Leader s Guide at the end of the book.

Rich with wisdom drawn from the wellsprings of Western spirituality, this remarkable book is a sustained experience of spiritual direction offered by a seasoned spiritual guide.
-John S. Mogabgab, editor of "Weavings" journal "This book does more than point to ways of prayer; it serves as encouragement, guide, and partner for those who want to connect in prayer in ways that move beyond words." -Doug Pagitt, author of "BodyPrayer" and pastor of Solomon's Porch
This is a basic, balanced, and accessible guide to the variety, promise, and practice of prayer. "Read" it to deepen your understanding of prayer; "use" it to deepen your life in God.
-Frederick W. Schmidt, author of What God Wants for Your Life
