A Rhythm of Prayer: A collection of meditations for renewal

Edited by Sarah Bessey

Featuring writing by Amena Brown, Barbara Brown Taylor, Lisa Sharon Harper and more

In A Rhythm of Prayer, Sarah Bessey seeks to recapture the spirit of the prayer circles she experienced growing up, when women of all ages and backgrounds gathered to express joy and sorrrow, thanksgiving and anger, peace and joyful resistance.

Energized by God and one another, their prayers were as diverse as the individuals who spoke them.

As we negotiate difficult, unsettling times, here is a warm invitation to revitalize our relationship with prayer and celebrate who we are.

Sarah Bessey brilliantly curates original contributions from Barbara Brown Taylor, Amena Brown, Nadia Bolz-Weber and other faith leaders, offering not only an intimate look at the diverse language and shapes of prayer but also a vision of what can be restored and made new.
