This revised and expanded version finishes the story of the final adoption of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer.

Download or read book God Moments written by Andy Otto and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where do you seek God? Are you waiting for him to appear in a monumental, life-altering event? In God Moments, Catholic blogger Andy Otto shows you how to discover the unexpected beauty of God’s presence in the story of ordinary things and in everyday routines like preparing breakfast or walking in the woods. Drawing on the Ignatian principles of awareness, prayer, and discernment, Otto will help you discover the transforming power of God’s presence in your life and better understand your place in the world. Andy Otto found God’s presence in surprising moments during his life—when, as a Jesuit scholastic, he taught children in Jamaica and also as he discerned the call to marriage with his wife. By combining elements of Ignatian spirituality with the lessons that came from his experiences, Otto identified three practices that helped him find God in all things: Awareness—Gain an understanding that God is present in the ordinary messiness of our lives such as battle with depression or sharing in the struggle of a friend. Prayer—Develop a prayer life using Ignatian practices such as asking for a morning grace and examining how your prayer was answered at the end of the day. That way you can focus on a personal relationship with God that finds everyday physical activities such as making a meal as an opportunity to talk to him. Discernment—The more you are aware of God’s presence and draw closer to him in prayer, the better you can learn how to plug into God’s narrative of the world in a way that enables you to participate in the divine story through the use of your gifts and talents. With God Moments as a guide, you’ll have a better understanding of how to seek personal wholeness in the reality of God’s presence in the ordinary and learn to accept his invitation to participate in his transformation of the world.

Download or read book Prayer 101 written by Elaine Helms and published by New Hope Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Church members today are presented with countless opportunities to become intercessors. Visit any church, and note that the weekly prayer list offers opportunities for believers to lift up the body of Christ through prayer related to healing, job situations, financial problems, family issues, and a variety of other life events. Often, however, members have a desire to participate in prayer but are intimidated by the commitment and feel they need help in knowing how to pray. That's where experienced author and prayer leader Elaine Helms can help. In Prayer 101, Elaine offers support for local church prayer ministry leaders looking for a tool to train and equip the body of Christ in the area of prayer. Elaine's passion is to help new believers--as well as any Christians who have a dry or nonexistent prayer life--grow in their knowledge of prayer. Readers will find simple principles they can put into action. These simple truths and opportunities for practice will help transform timid pray-ers into enthusiastic, active, praying Christians. Prayer 101 helps readers understand several prayer principles: priority and patterns of prayer; persistence in prayer; the difference between needs and wants; and how to pray for contentment, relationships, health and healing, and persons in positions of authority both within and outside the church. Readers will finish the book with an increased confidence in praying, both in private and in public.
