This all new collection of prayers will involve each member of your congregation in an informal, first-person personal style that demands individual accountability (which corporate prayer too often allows us to avoid), and encourages the sense of community upon which Christian worship is built -- affirming "that, as we gather for worship, we are both individual seekers and believers and also the Body of Christ."
Included are original Prayers of Confession for each Sunday, and special days, throughout the church year, developed as a result of the author's nearly twenty years in campus and parish ministries. Whether read aloud or contemplated silently, these tried and proven prayers will add a freshly honest, contemporary texture to your Sunday morning worship -- or provide meaningful insight for Bible study classes and personal devotions.
David L. Wade has served thirteen years as an ecumenical campus minister at Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana, and is currently a United Church of Christ pastor in Rock Spring, Wyoming.
