NOTES

Join the 150,000+ people who have discovered a way to pray with the right side of the brain! Praying in Color forever changed the way people pray-and will change your life, too. Maybe you love color. Maybe you are a visual or kinesthetic learner, a distractible or impatient soul, or a word-weary pray-er. Perhaps you struggle with a short attention span, a restless body, or a tendency to live in your head. Maybe your prayers feel more like a list for Santa Claus than a love letter to God, or you're just bored with the same old prayers you've said since you were a toddler. Maybe you're not sure that anyone out there is listening, or you just feel deep in your bones a hunger to know God better. The prayer practice Praying in Color® was born when Sybil's desperation to pray for family and friends intersected with her love of color and doodling. Praying in Color® invites the whole body into prayer and gives you a new way to be with God. This revised, expanded edition of the bestselling, groundbreaking book: - Presents double the wisdom and insight from Sybil MacBeth, from fifteen years of experience praying, teaching, and leading workshops - Includes a foreword by Lauren F. Winner, author of Girl Meets God - Brings a sense of fun and delight into prayer time - Gathers our mind, body, emotions, thoughts, and spirit into the same space for a while - Is ideal for praying on your own or in small groups, church fellowships, hospital rooms, university classrooms, prison ministry, elementary schools, and so much more. Sections of the book include: - Disgruntled Prayers - Praying Your To-Do List - Praying for Our Enemies - Hodgepodge Prayers - Twelve-Step Prayers - Praying with Scripture - Praying the Liturgical Year - Praying in Community - ​Sending and Sharing Prayers And so much more ​"It would not be an overstatement to say that Praying in Color rescued my devotional life from nonexistence. . . . I've given away more copies of this book than I can count." -Lauren F. Winner
