[Donna]

Kind, gentle encouragement with practical advice on prayer.

[Amy]

A beautiful small book about prayer. More like poetry than prose. Very helpful and supportive. Read while on retreat in 2025.

This was a re-read for me. As the holidays were coming I needed a book that would center me for these days of busy-ness and to remind me of the things that are truly important in our lives. I liked it even more this time. It is one of a handful of books I like to keep on my night stand to pull out to read and to inspire or relax my busy mind.

[Karen]

Gentle book discussing prayer, the how, the why, and the what.
