What Is This Prayer Stuff Anyway?: An Exploration of How Prayer Is More Than Words

By Laura Marie Piotrowicz and Richard Pryce

What Is This Prayer Stuff Anyway? is a joyful proclamation that there are many different ways for Christians to pray.

This book describes over sixty different forms of prayer, providing gentle guidance for each one. Some are active and energetic, others are quiet and contemplative; some involve groups of people, while others are more individual in nature; some open us to receptivity, others release our creativity. Regardless of where the reader starts or ends, however, the authors assert that it is all prayer; it is all response to the abundant love that God gives us in every moment.

What Is This Prayer Stuff Anyway? will be a valuable and valued resource for clergy and lay people, prayer groups and individuals, those who have prayed all their lives, those who are just starting out, and those who have found their prayers have become a bit stale; anyone, in fact, who wishes to engage, or reengage, the practice of prayer.
