Summary:
For thousands of years men and women found meaning and a deep sense
of belonging though faith in God. But today, traditional images of
God (as an all-powerful father figure) and much standard prayer and
worship language are no longer plausible for many believers. Yet the
hunger to know - and communicate with - the Sacred in some form
remains strong. In this unique prayer book John McQuiston,
best-selling author of Always We Begin Again, provides morning and
evening devotions for two weeks, plus complete Morning and Evening
Prayer services, along with a Service of Commemoration for Our Union.
All use a language for and about God that reflects contemporary
understandings of God and God's actions in the universe. This
pocket-sized devotional is an excellent resource for individuals and
congregations who are seeking to worship in a language that
acknowledges today's realities and theology.
