Praying in the Dark

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Powerful, clear, poetic, and deeply relevant to our times, this book is distilled from a lifetime of faithful seeking. Beginning with a profound adolescent awareness of being fully loved by God, Dan invites us into the currents of this mystery fed by the tributaries of Quakerism, theology, nonviolence, biblical studies, philosophy, depth psychology, and jazz. In the multiple-sourced writing, he revives and rehabilitates the seriously endangered words in our day: God, prayer, truth, and Jesus.”

Theological Education in a New Key

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Richard Hester has distilled his decades of theological teaching into an understanding that upends our conventional thinking. He shifts the focus of transformative learning from the teacher to what he calls the inner ‘textbooks’ of his students. Teaching from his own inner ‘textbook,’ Hester, awakening to his own embedded Whiteness, rewrote the manuscript with this awareness in mind. This book will awaken your curiosity about another way to see education by recovering its Latin origin, ‘to bring forth.’”
