The Sarum Prayer is a remarkably accessible ancient prayer with contemporary appeal—memorable, physical, genderless, and mystical. It is suited for use throughout the day, invoking a God who inhabits all things, including our senses. Like the Serenity Prayer, it appeals to those relying on God to get through their day.
This book offers a step-by-step introduction to the prayer that fosters improved conscious contact with God. With forty short meditations, it draws the reader into the different aspects of the prayer each day and can serve as an easy access Lenten guide. These short essays are designed to mediate an enhanced experience through daily use.
Though field-tested as a Lenten prayer guide, it is a devotional suitable for any time of year, making connection with God possible even to those not steeped in a religious tradition.
KEN WILSON was a friend and prayer partner of Phyllis Tickle. He authored A Letter to My Congregation: An Evangelical Pastor's Path to Embracing People who are Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender, into the Company of Jesus (David Crumm Media). To practice full inclusion, he and Emily Swan co-founded Ann Arbor Blue Ocean Church and co-authored Solus Jesus: A Theology of Resistance. Ken has written in the field of spirituality, most notably Mystically Wired: Exploring New Realms in Prayer (Thomas Nelson, 2009) which Phyllis Tickle called "hands down ... the best book on prayer I have ever read."
