We would no doubt accomplish more each day that is of value if we remained in communion with the living God. Just imagine what an army of prayer warriors could do in this nation. What actions would they set off? What strings would they strum that would vibrate like a sweet melody into eternity? What souls would be in Heaven because of such mission-minded musicians? Prayer produces fruit to our account. Prayer goes behind the scenes and works internally. Prayer is our secret, invisible weapon by which we can penetrate the enemy’s territory and begin to reclaim it for God." “And it came to pass, that, as He was praying in a certain place when He ceased, one of His disciples said unto Him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.” Luke 11:1 Here, Jesus is shown to be engaged in prayer within earshot of his followers. When He ceases, they are absolutely astonished to have heard this soul-stirring conversation with the Father above. “Lord, teach us to pray!” This is the best request you and I can have when it comes to the prayer realm. For if we are to pray correctly, we must be taught correctly, and what higher place of learning is there than sitting at the feet of Jesus, the Master? What world-acclaimed bible seminary; what university; what religious guru can ever hope to touch the hem of Jesus’ garment? God must teach us to pray and avoid the pitfalls. Oh, you might know all there is to know about prayer - all the facts and figures - but there is another world in being taught to pray by the Son of God. May we sit at Jesus's feet and say: “LORD, teach us to pray!” Readers Feedback “What a book on prayer! Once taken up, it is hard to put down.

The classic of Russian spirituality--now with facing-page commentary that illuminates and explains the text. The Way of a Pilgrim is the timeless account of an anonymous wanderer who set out on a journey across nineteenth-century Russia with nothing but a backpack, some bread, and a Bible, with a burning desire to learn the true meaning of the words of St. Paul: "Pray without ceasing." In this completely accessible new abridgment, all the terms and references are explained for you--with intriguing insights into aspects of the text that are often not available to the general reader.

A unique collection of prayers on the theme of pilgrimage, helping you to see your whole life as a journey and to discover the sacred presence every step of the way.

The renowned author of eight books and abbess of the online retreat center Abbey of the Arts, Christine Valters Paintner takes readers on a new kind of pilgrimage: an inner journey to discover the heart of God. Eight stages of the pilgrim's way--from hearing the call to coming home--are accompanied by scripture stories of great biblical journeys and the author's unique and creative practices of prayer, writing, and photography. As she did in The Artist's Rule and Eyes of the Heart, Christine Valters Paintner once again helps readers travel to the frontiers of their souls to discover the hidden presence of God. In The Soul of a Pilgrim, Paintner identifies eight stages of the pilgrim's way and shows how to follow these steps to make an intentional, transformative journey to the reader's inner "wild edges." Each phase of the exploration requires a distinct practice such as packing lightly, being uncomfortable, or embracing the unknown. Paintner shows how to cultivate attentiveness to the divine through deep listening, patience, and opening oneself to the gifts that arise in the midst of discomfort. Each of the eight chapters offers reflections on the themes, a scripture story, an invitation to the practice of lectio divina, and a creative exploration through photography and writing.
