Prayers for a Pioneer is an invitation to prayer as a journey, whether life throws up change suddenly or transition is beckoning as a gentle transformation. Seasons shift inwardly and this leads to external shifts, but can often leave us feeling at a loss, looking to discern the unknown one step at a time.
Six themes of prayer have been crafted especially for these journeys: Awake, Heal, Tune in, Abide, Inner Journey, Opening. This book is written for Pioneers praying the road with God, searching for the way forward, healing the past, while living fully in the present.
