Is prayer a struggle for you?

From time to time I offer online classes to help people deepen their prayer life, or to start it up from scratch. These draw on my books and research and years of teaching in Christian practices of prayer. The link below is to join the wait list. I'll notify you when classes are opening up.

Recently on my blog:

Need a new way to engage with the Bible?

Subscribe to my newsletter and I'll send you a free ebook copy of Love Your Bible: Finding Your Way to the Presence of God with a 12th Century Monk. It's a modern introduction to a classic spiritual discipline that brings prayer and Bible study together.

It's manageable. It's fun. And it's free, along with my (almost)weekly newsletter that brings you every new article and announcement.
