Praying In The Messiness Of Life
$12.99Add to cartMany Christians think they can grow closer to God if they just try harder. They get up earlier to pray, join a prayer group, read the latest spiritual book, or go on a retreat. Rather than feeling closer to God, they find themselves unfulfilled, frustrated with traditional prayer methods, unable to relate to God in the midst of their busy lives.
Praying in the Messiness of Life suggests fresh ideas for weaving prayer into each day instead of simply making more time for prayer. Linda Douty helps readers become more aware of God’s presence even in the messy parts of life. She offers specific prayers and tools for integrating prayer into daily life so readers can have the intimate relationship with God they’ve always desired.
Each chapter includes reflection questions, and a group guide appears at the back of the book.

$23.95Add to cartLetting go isn’t just saying good-bye to people, places, and things-as important as they may be.

Letting go is crucial to our spiritual-and emotional-health.

With practical suggestions and updated versions of spiritual classics such as lectio divina, plus questions for study and reflection, this book is a rich resource for personal spiritual growth as well as for group study.
