Book give away-A Praying Life-a book blog


Hi all,

A few quotes:
"If I get an answer to prayer, sometimes I'll think, it would have happened anyway."

"It didn't take me long to realize that I did my best parenting by prayer. I began to speak less to the kids and more to God. It was actually quite relaxing."

"Come overwhelmed with life. Come with a wandering mind. Come messy."

"I am loving pages 122+ as well" --my quote!

"If you are going to enter this divine dance we call prayer, you have to surrender your desire to be in control, to figure out how prayer works."

---------------------------------
I am LOVING this book! We are reading it for book club and I am being immensely challenged by it, as well as encouraged. :)

A year ago or so I loved Heaven at Home by Ginger Plowman and gave a few copies away.
I would like to do that again with A Praying Life by Paul Miller.

I will send you a copy if you truly desire to read it. Really, it is worth it! Then all I would like in return is a few of your comments after you finish it.

A few of my friends are reading it too...so I think it is a good one to recommend and pass along. It is making the top 10 lists on a lot of neat blogs...

Leave me a comment and the book is yours for free!

Here is a review on the book

Gi I would love to read this book, but have a few other ones on the waiting list. So can I get it from you later and then let someone else that can read it now get the copy?? Either way I would LOVE to read it, maybe this summer I can get it read :)

Love you! Miss You!
