At Your Side
For many of us, Prayer tends to be a formal process.

This engaging collection of prayers for individuals or groups is deeply rooted in real life and covers a broad range of our human experience.

Each prayer is accompanied by Scripture quotes, thought-provoking insights from Christian authors, and questions to prompt deeper reflection. Book jacket.
