About the Book

These reflective prayers are the result of permitting a gentle reading of the lectionary texts for a given service to resonate in me and emerge as a searching engagement of the Word with my spirit in a mood of settled joy. The ninety samples given are the most recent in order at the time of publication.


About the Author

I am a retired minister from a Christian church (Disciples of Christ), and I living in the hills of the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia. Since 1983, I have used the form I call reflective prayers as one way into my sense of the lectionary texts for a given Sunday or other occasion. I quickly found the form useful, indeed powerful for me, both in terms of searching the text and searching me in resonance with the texts—spiritually, that is. The more mature of these have arrived through me over the last decade or so. I now live with my wife of forty-eight years, two dogs, and a handful of cats. Four ducks have recently been added to our mix on our five acres of reasonable solitude.
