What does it mean to pray without ceasing, especially in today's busy world of rapid change and the stress that accompanies it? Debra Farrington explains that praying constantly 'is as simple, and as difficult, as recalling God's presence often throughout the day, by connecting Scripture and daily activities.' In Unceasing Prayer: A Beginner's Guide, she provides concrete ways that you can begin to practice unceasing prayer. The first part of the book suggests prayers for specific times and activities of the day, and the second part provides prayers for times of need and times of celebration. Through practical, realistic examples, Farrington demonstrates how to make all action, or inaction, a time of prayer. Unceasing Prayer is ideal for all those whose schedules are not conducive to formal prayer. College students, parents of young children, caregivers, and those who are ill, will benefit from this new approach to daily prayer. All individuals engaged in a prayer life, both beginners and those who are more experienced, will find new meaning and renewed vision in this guide.
