Surrendering to God

by Keith Beasley-Topliffe

Do you ever feel that prayer has become rote repetition, or that the simple prayers of childhood have lost their meaning?

In this life-changing little book, Rev. Keith Beasley-Topliffe shares his experience of praying the Covenant Prayer - a classic prayer that calls us to surrender completely to God. Line by line, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe uses the wisdom of the prayer of surrender as a guide for those who want to learn to trust God more. With honesty and gentle humor, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe shows us how simple prayers not only express our heart's desires to God, but also open the doorway to deeper prayer and transformation.

After hearing the author speak about this book I had to read it. I was not disappointed. As a UM pastor the Wesleyan Covenant prayer is part of our tradition and spiritual formation but Keith looks at the prayer in new light.

Excellent thought provoking look at the covenant prayer in the Wesleyan tradition. Breaking it down in parts with reflection on each them.

Needed to refresh my memory for a retreat I'm leading next weekend. Think it holds up pretty well after 15 years.
