- Embracing prayer practices from different Christian traditions digs a deep well of peace in the soul.
- Our everyday ordinary lives can become the meeting place for God through silence, solitude, community, creation, and hospitality.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5As a reformed “Pharisee” I found this book deeply refreshing with beliefs exposed that I didn’t even know I had. God redeems it all! He really does love me more than I can grasp. Thankful for the truths shared in this book.
