"This book written by God, through Lesa Day is a significant reminder to us all. Within the pages of this magnificent book is a profound message of listening and walking in love. This great love will guide us around every obstacle in life as long as we listen and hold on to it." Anthony Goulet author of God Help Me Tie My Shoes & The Four "This book is a beautiful writing of one woman's journey of an intimacy with God; growing deeper in trust of the ONE she loves, her Lord, her Creator! The one who she has given her life to out of love for Him and a heart for others. It was a blessing to be able to take the journey with Lesa Day, as God calls her from a place of brokenness, from complacency - into an even deeper walk of surrender...to a place she had never known before... as it should be as we grow in a life given over to Him to have His way. Thank you Lesa! Through the sharing of your own journey and then the Spirit led questions at the end of each chapter designed for us to consider some things in our own walk with God...you are allowing us to grab His hand and have our own unique walk with Him to NEXT!" Theresa Robbins youth group leader "I must say this book caused me to take a good look at my attitude toward prayer and what God has been trying to tell me. The stories and their connection to God's word really rang true for me. The chapter on forgiveness was so on point and spoke to me directly, causing me to miss boarding my plane because I was focused on what God was saying to me. This book was worth missing my flight, so I could finish it. Great reading, great testimony Lesa Day...thank you for sharing your story." Mark Wiggins, The Speaker Man, author of Permission to Succeed & Mapping Your Journey to Success A life changing book with a life changing message.

Lesa takes the reader along with her on a spiritual journey as she shares priceless lessons that can only be learned when a child of God talks less and and prays more.

Book Description
After the publication of her best-selling book To Begin Again, Naomi Levy received a flood of feedback from readers telling her how much the prayers in it had helped and moved them. Many urged her to publish a collection of her prayers—and now she has. In a time when we all need inspiration, comfort, and connection, Talking to God will help us reclaim prayer as an integral part of our lives, making it as natural and uninhibited as talking to our loved ones. Prayer is essential to the lives of millions, but many of us are searching for ways to supplement traditional prayers with ones that are less formal and more intimate. Written in a simple and direct style, the prayers in this book—and the wonderful stories that accompany them—are for people of all faiths, and for all occasions large and small. Naomi Levy’s personal prayers address the anxieties and roadblocks we all face in contemporary life. There are prayers for facing a new day, realizing one’s potential at work, celebrating an anniversary or birthday, and going to sleep at night. And there are prayers for the more profound occurrences in life—love and marriage, pregnancy and childbirth, illness, loss, and death. Rabbi Levy’s words, imbued with grace and empathy, touch on the entire range of human experience. Many of us will recognize ourselves in her prayers and stories and will be comforted by them, as well as challenged and uplifted. Perhaps most important, they are stepping-stones for us to go on and create our own prayers, to find meaning in our own lives, and to begin or renew our own relationships with God.

Book Description
Unity minister Linda Martella-Whitsett provides a new framework for thinking about prayer that will revolutionize the lives of readers everywhere. The good news here is that you can pray without believing in God; that you can have a rich and fulfilling spiritual practice without adhering to a set of creeds or dogmas. Martella-Whitsett encourages seekers to look within rather than outside themselves for a God in the sky, for the spark of the divine that is at the core of their being. How to Pray Without Talking to God shows how to develop a true spiritual practice by: re-forming the words of traditional prayers; cultivating a habit of daily prayer and meditation; learning how to pray with others. How To Pray Without Talking To God is filled with the author’s stories of her own evolving understanding of God. Each chapter includes a section called “Talk to Yourself” that poses questions for readers to write about or share in a study circle.

Book Description
More than 300,000 copies sold "This book will be like having the breath of God at your back. Let it lift you to new hope." --Dan B. Allender, PhD, author of Bold Love This new edition includes an expanded chapter on using the practical "prayer cards"--a hallmark of the teaching found in A Praying Life--and a chapter on the need and use of prayers of lament. Prayer is so hard that unless circumstances demand it--an illness, or saying grace at a meal--most of us simply do not pray. We prize accomplishments and productivity over time in prayer. Even Christians experience this prayerlessness--a kind of practical unbelief that leaves us marked by fear, anxiety, joylessness, and spiritual lethargy. Prayer is all about relationship. Based on the popular seminar by the same name, A Praying Life has discipled thousands of Christians to a vibrant prayer life full of joy and power. When Jesus describes the intimacy He seeks with us, He talks about joining us for dinner (Revelation 3:20). A Praying Life feels like having dinner with good friends. It is the way we experience and connect to God. In A Praying Life, author Paul Miller lays out a pattern for living in relationship with God and includes helpful habits and approaches to prayer that enable us to return to a childlike faith.

Book Description
It's easy to pray for others' needs. If God takes a long time in answering--or answers with a no--it's easier to take. Far more difficult is focusing on your own needs, when sometimes you don't get the answers you want. What do you pray when life gets hard or even unbearable? When you lose a spouse or a child? When your health deteriorates? When your spiritual life seems barren? Linda Evans Shepherd knows what it's like to pray in the most dire of circumstances. She shows readers the how, what, and when of praying for themselves. As she takes readers through her own prayer journey and the stories of others, they will be encouraged and equipped to pray for themselves in any circumstance. They'll also find that whether or not God changes their circumstances, he will use prayer to change them.

Book Description
New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
