Download or read book Praying for Others written by Birrell Walsh and published by Crossroad. This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praying for others is something all people do. Whether you are a devout believer, an atheist, an agnostic, or somewhere in-between, at some point in your life you've prayed for another person, probably without even thinking about it. You may have used the formal "intercessory" prayers heard in churches, temples, mosques, and synagogues, or had a spontaneous moment hoping for someone in need to find health, spiritual comfort, or blessing. Praying for Others guides us through many dynamic prayerful ways we can help a friend, husband, child, business associate, or anyone else in need of support. Birrell Walsh draws us into the wisdom of prayer by showing us such diverse practices as energy work (practiced by Jesus), keeping company from far away, entering into unity with God, looking for guidance, learning from hard times and failure, and bringing joy. Dr. Walsh's compelling and insightful narrative inspires us, while it leads us into and teaches us about these spiritual practices. Finally, a book on intercessory prayer for everyone, no matter what our religious tradition. Book jacket.
