Description: The ecumenical Iona community worships in the ancient Celtic tradition, while imbuing their prayers with a contemporary commitment to peace, justice, and the rediscovery of an integrated spirituality. The Pattern of Our Days is a collection of Iona's actual liturgies, litanies, responses, and meditations. Like all their prayers, these are honest, earthy, and original. They can be used as is by both individuals or groups, adapted, or tapped for ideas for other acts of worship. Believing that no part of life is beyond the reach of faith, these prayers and liturgies emphasize the whole person praying with both intellect and senses. The material draws deeply from Celtic and Benedictine traditions, as well as the Liturgy of the Hours, but also seeks to actively include all as part of a worldwide church. The wide-ranging themes covered by the prayers and liturgies include pilgrimage, healing, witness, dissent, sanctuary, forgiveness, thanksgiving, cursings, blessings, and more. Designed to encourage creativity in worship, this book is a unique resource for parishes, liturgy-planning committees, small faith groups, and religious communities. It's also inspirational reading for the individual seeker, those interested in monasticism, and those drawn to Celtic spirituality--whether their own roots lie there or not.

Description: Prayer for the church is not a casual practice but communion between Christ and His body that is as intimate as communion between a husband and a wife. And for the church, corporate prayer is not an optional ritual but a commanded expectation. However, having an effective corporate experience of prayer-whether in a large congregational setting or a small group-depends on many factors. John Franklin highlights not only the theology behind powerful corporate prayer times but also the effective habits and practices of a praying church. Know why God especially requires corporate prayer. Know what motivates God to move in power. God wants to reveal Himself to His people, to move them onto His agenda, and to minister to His people particularly through His people. A God-centered prayer format is central to having a "God experience" in the corporate church setting.

Description: Pete Greig, the acclaimed author of Red Moon Rising, has written his most intensely personal and honest account yet in God on Mute, a book born out of his wife Samie s fight for her life and diagnosis of a debilitating brain tumor. Greig asks the timeless questions of what it means to suffer and to pray and to suffer through the silence because your prayers seem unanswered. This silence, Greig relates, is the hardest thing. The world collapses. Then all goes quiet. Words can t explain, don t fit, won t work. People avoid you and don t know what to say. So you turn to Him and you pray. You need Him more than ever before. But somehow...even God Himself seems on mute. In this heart-searching, honest and deeply profound book, Pete Greig looks at the hard side of prayer, how to respond when there seem to be no answers and how to cope with those who seek to interpret our experience for us. Here is a story of faith, hope and love beyond all understanding.

Description: This volume contains three works by Thomas Keating on centring prayer. "Open Mind, Open Heart" aims to lead the reader into a deep, living relationship with God. Keating gives an overview of the history of contemplative prayer in the Christian tradition, and step-by-step guidance in the method of centring prayer. Special attention is paid to the role of the sacred word, Christian growth and transformation, and active prayer. "Invitation to Love: The Way of Christian Contemplation" is the natural next step. In "Open Mind, Open Heart", Father Keating presents the beginning of a process of spiritual growth. In this book, he outlines and explains the actual stages of this process, tackling questions such as: How will it affect my life? Where does it lead us spiritually? What obstacles will I encounter along the way? Why is it necessary? How does it work? The third book, "Intimacy with God", offers practical advice on the way that centring prayer can deepen our intimacy with God.

Description: Every spiritual tradition has its share of renowned figures--the great saints, mystics, and visionaries who inform our own search for divine connection. Now, Sounds True presents a new series that brings to life some of history's most beloved spiritual beacons. Each book is a small "gem of devotion," dedicated to capturing the essential wisdom these innovators gave to us. Combining the writings and poetry of the masters and their devotees with beautiful artwork and historical context, these gift-sized books are perfect for anyone who wants to deepen their connection to these pioneers of human enlightenment. In Saint Teresa of Avila, the first book in the series, readers touch the supreme passion of one of Christianity's most inspiring saints. A tireless reformer and the mentor of Saint John of the Cross, Teresa is most famous for her revelation of ecstatic love for God and the empowerment it offers. Despite illness, hardship, and persecution by the Inquisition, the unshakable faith of this courageous mystic lit the way to an "interior castle," a place of unimaginable beauty where no darkness can touch us. Edited and compiled with meditative reflections by celebrated translator and author Mirabai Starr, Saint Teresa of Avila gives readers a direct link to the living presence of this brave and gentle woman, to draw upon her strength in our own times of need, and to experience the transformational power of embodied love for the divine.

Description: “A welcome remedy for the increasing number of lay Christians who have rediscovered the daily offices. Tickle puts each day’s prayers, psalms, readings, and refrains–everything you need–in one place. The rhythm that Tickle’s book establishes gives one a stronger sense of participating in an ancient, worldwide but very personal liturgy.”
–Nora Gallagher, beliefnet.com, and author of Things Seen and Unseen: A Year Lived in Faith
The third and final volume in a trilogy of prayer manuals compiled by Publishers Weekly religion editor Phyllis Tickle as a contemporary Book of Hours to guide Christians gently yet authoritatively through the daily offices.
The Divine Hours is the first major literary and liturgical reworking of the sixth-century Benedictine Rule of fixed-hour prayer. This beautifully conceived and thoroughly modern three-volume guide will appeal to the theological novice as well as to the ecclesiastical sophisticate. Making primary use of the Book of Common Prayer and the writings of the Church Fathers, The Divine Hours is also a companion to the New Jerusalem Bible, from which it draws its Scripture readings. The trilogy blends prayer and praise in a way that, while extraordinarily fresh, respects and builds upon the ancient wisdom of Christianity.
The third and final book in the set, Prayers for Springtime, provides prayers, psalms, and readings for this season associated with rebirth. Compact, with deluxe endpapers, it is perfect for those seeking greater spiritual depth. As a contemporary Book of Hours, The Divine Hours: Prayers for Springtime heralds a renewal of the tradition of disciplined daily prayer, and gives those already using the first two volumes the completion they are seeking. With this volume, the series culminates with three prayer manuals encompassing the liturgical and calendar year with the offices for every day.
