Present in Prayer

Still your soul and rest your mind as you cultivate a purposeful prayer life by focusing your thoughts on God's Word. Even when your body is still, your mind often races with anxiety, to-do lists, and negative thought patterns. In Present in Prayer, award-winning author Jennifer Tucker invites you to allow the Holy Spirit to speak through God's Word and renew your mind through the practice of Christian meditation. This beautifully illustrated book offers 30 meditations, each providing a gentle call to silence, an opening prayer, and thoughtful reflection on Scripture. Discover guided meditation using lectio divina—a centuries-old Christian practice that helps you slow down and linger on God's Word. Each meditation includes a prayer of surrender and prompts for living out the truths God speaks to you, alongside inspired art that draws you deeper into reflection. Perfect for anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, or overwhelming thoughts, those seeking a more regular prayer practice, and prayer groups or ministries. Cultivate greater intimacy with God and a more purposeful, peaceful prayer life. You're not in a hurry. You're on a journey.
