Praying in the Wesleyan Spirit: 52 Prayers for Today

By Martha Rose Shulman and Jacquy Pfeiffer

Book Overview

Praying in the Wesleyan Spirit is a re-presentation of 52 sermons by John Wesley in the form of modern prayers. These sermons are a rich source of spiritual insight and wisdom that need to be reclaimed today in a form both faithful to Wesley and accessible to modern readers. Paul Chilcote has achieved this combination. Scripture and a hymn text by Charles Wesley further enhance each devotion. These devotional materials paint a portrait of discipleship in which both head and heart are important, and when held together as Wesley intended, lead us to get our hands involved as well. The purpose of this volume is to encounter anew the rich treasury of the Wesley brothers' Christian witness through praying it and then putting it into action.

Lovely to look at

Not much text but that was well made up for with beautiful pictures. The rooms are really beautiful and except for a few weird ones (fabulous but not achievable for the average person) the rest of the styles were achievable and mostly unique.
