Change the way you pray
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
"Praying the Parables" is a creative workshop on Christian prayer. Our communication with God should be lively and active, yet too often it is a drudgery. Joyce Huggett uses "Praying the Parables" to introduce readers to new (or merely often forgotten) methods of prayer. Instead of merely tell God about your requests Joyce Huggett suggests specific ways of contemplating on the parables of Jesus that lead to prayers of honesty. These prayers are more aboutknowing God better than they are about lifting requests to God. She suggests many different methods of prayer. These vary from assuming the parts of certain parables, to spiritual stock-taking, to journalling, and many other methods. These methods may be new to some and old hat to others, but Joyce Huggett's application of them is refreshing.
