Summary: Excellent for guided daily prayer.
Review: I received this book the other day (just in time for February). I have used it daily from the moment I received it. For those searching for a method of guided daily prayer, I highly recommend. I have found that spending time in prayer with this book has helped me to center, ground, and reflect throughout the day.

Summary: Nurturing Our Human Best
Review: My wife is a psychotherapist and I am a pastoral counselor. In our concerns for those we counsel, our wholeness, grounded in our recognition of personal need, is nurtured by the spiritual. Early each morning we read aloud responsively to each other from her books, pray the prayers, meditate on the scriptural passage, sing the hymn and the gloria; afterwhich we journal our thought for the day. The book and practice has prompted our own coping through a
chronic dilemma, paradoxical adequacy, objective compassion and
effective relations. V. Coletta, D.M. - Loris Coletta, Ph.D.

Summary: A Literate Dialog With God
Review: This book of prayers (one of three volumes covering daily prayer for a year) taken in large measure from the Bible is a wonderful prompt in one's life-long conversation with God. It helps one come to words one didn't realize one meant or hadn't the aptitude to say before one began using it in one's daily devotions. In addition to Scripture, it employs prayers from "The Book of Common Prayer" and other standard resources. But one particularly delights in the additional readings taken from a wide range of meditative and inspirational literature. Examples are "Pied Beauty," by Gerard Manley Hopkins and "The Sacrament of the Present Moment," by Jean Pierre de Caussade. What a remarkable contribution to one's spiritual life!

Summary: Excellent work
Review: Tickle completes her trilogy of excellent prayer manuals with this volume. This is the best prayer book released in the past thirty years. Be assured that Tickle has chosen her selections and arrangements with great sensitivity to the time, day, and season of the year. For more info, see my reviews of the first two volumes.
