Beyond Words: 15 Ways to Do Prayer (Explorefaith.Org Book)

by Kristin J. Johnson

Beyond Words: 15 Ways to Do Prayer (Explorefaith.Org Book) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Prayer can go far beyond words, and Johnson shows how to do prayer while sitting, walking, listening, and more.

Synopsis:

Author Kristen Johnson Ingram was photographing Native American dancers at an Oregon powwow when an official tapped her on the shoulder and asked her to stop taking pictures. "This is the prayer the dancer is doing," he explained. For people of faith, Ingram realized, there are many forms of prayer besides the ones we speak with our lips: devout Jews bow while reading Torah; Episcopalians stand, sit, or kneel in church; exuberant Christians raise their arms; and mystics of all denominations walk while murmuring the Jesus Prayer. As Christians, we can use our entire bodies to praise God, transforming simple acts like hearing music, looking at shafts of sunlight, or walking in the woods into acts of prayer that celebrate God's presence in everyday life. Beyond Words is a book for spiritual adventurers who seek new ways to pray. Readers can put into practice the concepts they find here, making the book not just a source of inspiration but a springboard to action that deepens their prayer lives and draws them closer to God.

Synopsis:

An introduction and guide to active forms of prayer and contemplation.
