Prayers Before a River

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“George Herbert called prayer ‘heaven in ordinarie.’ In this multifaceted little book John Maher helps us appreciate how that connection between God and daily life can be seen and experienced here and now. He shows prayer to be a dynamic, moving thing, with its own contours of assumption, questioning, and correction. With freshness and authenticity, Maher writes about prayer not just as a topic or subject, but as a landscape he travels and knows well.”
