Inhaltsangabe

Part of the Question of Faith series, Exploring Prayer offers a gentle introduction to the subject of prayer for those on the edges of faith and for new Christians. Practical in focus, it helps readers to begin the adventure of prayer using all their senses, and blends teaching with practical exercises to introduce the multi-faceted world of prayer in an accessible way. Rather than providing all the answers, Exploring Prayer endeavours to guide the reader through their own personal journey, highlighting some of the wisdom of the Christian tradition along the way.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

'Prayer is a journey - a journey into God and a journey to the deepest, hidden levels of ourselves. To embark on a life of prayer is to begin a journey of discovery. As we grow and change, so our praying will grow and deepen too.' People of all backgrounds pray. Many are longing to make a spiritual connection with something or someone bigger than themselves. In this book Sue Mayfield introduces readers to the multi-faceted subject of prayer. Exploring Prayer is divided into two parts: the first half looks at the many aspects of prayer, such as celebration, encounter, penitence and listening; the second half explores different ways of praying, such as praying with the imagination, praying with music, praying with our senses and praying through creativity. Each chapter also has suggested exercises to help readers to discover what works for them. Using contemporary quotes and full-colour illustrations, this practical and accessible book will enable readers to explore the adventure of prayer for themselves. SUE MAYFIELD is an award-winning author of fiction for teenagers and has co-written the 'Youth Emmaus' nurture material and two Lent courses for adults - 'Life Attitudes' and 'Life Balance'. She has been writer-in-residence at a hospital, a musem and a parish church and currently facilitates expressive writing in a hospice. Sue has led workshops and retreat days exploring the use of creativity and the senses in prayer. She lives with her husband and their three sons in Cheltenham.
