Divine Hours : Pocket Edition
$21.99Add to cartWhen Phyllis Tickle’s marvelous devotional trilogy The Divine Hours appeared, readers responded with gratitude, praise, and a great many requests for an edition of hourly prayers that they could easily carry with them–an edition that would make this ancient form of Christian worship compatible with the pace and mobility of modern life. Now, in The Divine Hours Pocket Edition, Tickle has gathered one full week of fixed-hour prayers, providing an ideal companion for travelers, office-workers, people on retreat or pilgrimage, as well as newcomers to this age-old spiritual practice. As Tickle writes in her introduction, “prayer is always a place as well as an action, and the daily offices are like small chapels or wayside stations within the day’s courses.” Seven of these daily offices are offered for each day of the week, and each office contains the Call to Prayer, the Request for Presence, the Greeting, the Reading, the Gloria, the Psalm, the Small Verse, the Lord’s Prayer, the Petition, and the Final Thanksgiving. Tickle draws her texts primarily from the Book of Common Prayer and the writings of the Church Fathers, and includes memorable devotional and meditative poems by Cleland McAfee, Charles Wesley, and others. Tickle also provides a chapter of “Traditional, Seasonal, and Occasional Prayers” in order to accommodate special dates like Advent, Christmas, Easter, and Thanksgiving; major life-changes such as marriage, birth, death, and illness; and moments of special petition or thanksgiving. For all those who want to carry a “small chapel” of prayers with them, The Divine Hours Pocket Edition offers a convenient, easy-to-use, and deeply spiritual guide to a devotional practice that extends all the way back to Christ and the twelve Apostles.

Better Way To Pray
$14.99Add to cartAndrew Wommack uncovers the traditions and misconceptions in prayer that often bring more suffering than good! In finding out how Jesus taught us to pray, we can bring joy back into our relationship with God.
Many people, who truly love God with all of their heart, find it difficult to pray as they have been taught. And their once-vibrant relationship with the Lord has become stifled, mechanical, and lifeless. What they don’t understand is that prayer is an opportunity to have communion with God – fellowship with the Father. Of course it includes requests because we need help from our Father every day, but it also includes a connection and friendship with God. Readers may find it amazing that God would talk with them just as a friend, but His greatest desire is for His children to know Him in much the same, intimate way as He knows them.
After 30 years of ministry, Andrew Wommack has discovered some important things about prayer including what prayer is and what it is not. Readers will uncover the traditions and misconceptions in prayer and discover true and meaningful communion with God through Jesus’ example of prayer. More importantly, they’ll come to know a new, profound joy and fulfillment in their relationship with God, receiving the answers they need.

Longing To Pray
$16.99Add to cartThe Psalms are much more than ancient poetry. They represent, in a moving, kaleidoscopic way, a vast catalog of very real humans with an unquenchable need to relate to their Creator. In spite of experiencing a wide array of troubles, inconsistencies, and questions, these writers were indeed sants who left behind the greatest collection of prayers in the possession of our human race. Best-selling author J. Ellsworth Kalas invites readers to study with ancient experts in prayer – the people who wrote the Book of Psalms. Kalas contends that is was the quality of their friendship with God that fueled them to begin the prayerful conversations that today’s readers across the globe admire and hold dear. The psalmists do not, however, offer any secret precept or a hard set of rules for effective praying. Still, if their prayers are read carefully, their secret of “the Ultimate Friendship” can truly be discovered. Kalas helps readers start down the path of an incredible journey of stimulating, challenging conversation with God. Also includes a study guide by John D. Schroeder.

Prayer : The Cry For The Kingdom (Revised)
$19.99Add to cartBringing our needs and desires to God has always stood at the heart of Christian prayer. But why is petitioning God so important? In Prayer: The Cry for the Kingdom noted theologian Stanley Grenz points to petitionary prayer as a crucial way for us to be involved with God’s work in history. At the center of such prayer, Grenz argues, is the cry to God that his kingdom might come into the world.
Grenz explores key questions that many Christians ask: What does it mean to pray “according to God’s will”? Should we persist in petitioning God for our needs? Does prayer really influence God? In the process of addressing these questions, Grenz offers practical guidance on praying effectively and challenges the contemporary church to recapture what it means to be a church that prays.
Revised and completely rewritten, with the inclusion of additional material, and now featuring an insightful foreword by Eugene Peterson, Grenz’s Prayer: The Cry for the Kingdom will help readers from every Christian tradition to foster a richer personal and communal life of prayer.

Prayz In The Garden
$13.49Add to cartPrayz in the Garden is not just a book. It is a call. This book was possible because my ex-wife was given a vision of me when I was dying from a drug overdose. I was literally prayed back to life-truly an Elijah story. Prayz in the Garden is a place: where we give back that hour in the garden where we can water the Lord where dreams come true where the cost has been counted where we belong as holy priests where there are divine prayers and agony in worship where deep spiritual healing and cleansing are found where there is unified freedom in diversity Best of all, it is a place in which we had always believed as children and as adults we have hoped. It is He who placed eternity in our hearts and gave light to all who came into the world. In the garden we shall find the heart and call of God. In deep union at the master’s table we shall find purpose, for it is only at His table that it can be found. It is a lamentation in which the Father is bestowing upon us. Your Shepherd in Christ, Li’l Drummer Boy

Surrendering To God
$17.99Add to cartDo 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.
“Abandonment to God is at the heart of Christian formation. Prayer is the means by which we surrender to God. Keith combines these two elements in a way that enables us to grow in grace through the regular use of this classic prayer.”
Dr. Steve Harper, Vice President
Asbury Theological SeminaryThe Covenant Prayer
I am no longer my own, but thine.
Put me to what thou wilt, rank me with whom thou wilt;
put me to doing, put me to suffering;
let me be employed for thee or laid aside for thee,
exalted for thee or brought low for thee;
let me be full, let me be empty;
let me have all things, let me have nothing;
I freely and heartily yield all things to thy pleasure and disposal.
And now, O glorious and blessed God,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
thou art mine, and I am thine.
So be it.
And the covenant which I have made on earth,
let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.Keith Beasley-Topliffe is the editor of The Upper Room Spiritual Classics and a major contributor to The Spiritual Formation Bible. He is the pastor of Fifth Street United Methodist Church in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Keith and his wife, Carola, who is also a United Methodist pastor, reside in Marysville, Pennsylvania.
“Surrendering to God is a rich spiritual resource. . . . These strikingly honest meditations offer both fresh challenge and encouragement in helping us examine our daily actions and attitudes toward work and possessions and how we deepen our trust in God’s guidance for all of life.”
