minds and deepen our relationship with God. Each day is centred
around a different liturgical theme, and there are prayers for
morning, midday, afternoon and night, with stunning Celtic
illustrations throughout. This book offers an accessible framework

your prayer life.
The act of blessing is a powerful one in Christianity with deep
biblical roots, reaching back to the early chapters of Genesis. It
expresses a very basic human instinct - the longing for protection,
peace and happiness. So it is not surprising that the world is full
of blessings for that most basic of human provisions - a place to
call home. Peter Watkins has collected together over 100 house
blessings from widely differing cultures and sources - the Bible,
Celtic spirituality, Latin prayers (translated here!), prayers of
St Francis and other saints, poems of blessing from Robert Herrick
and other literary figures, contemporary liturgies for rites of
blessing for each room of a home - and much more.
Parents know that their children need their prayers. But sometimes,
they aren't sure where to start. For moms and dads who long to lift
their kids up in prayer, Powerful Prayers for Your Daughter and
Powerful Prayers for Your Son offer hope, encouragement, and
practical help. Rob and Joanna Teigen assure parents that just
because they don't always understand their son or daughter, that
doesn't mean that God doesn't. Collecting specific prayers parents
can use, along with stories from other parents about how God has
answered their prayers, Rob and Joanna give readers a strong
foundation to build a lifelong habit of praying for their kids.
They also explain what boys and girls need to learn as they grow
up, including character, courage, modesty, self-control,
forgiveness, and more, so parents can pray for every part of their
kids' lives.
In History Makers, Dutch Sheets and William Ford III reveal how God
wants us to connect with the powerful and timeless things He has
done in the past so that we can become empowered for the future. We
must look to our Christian forefathers and pray for the renewal of
the covenants God made with them, building on God's past work to
move closer to His ultimate goals for us as a nation and a planet.
Now is our chance to connect with the past, shaping the outcome of
the future, and turning it back in God's direction!
The Book of Hours was a 'best-seller' in medieval and early modern
Europe, the era's most commonly produced and owned book. This
interdisciplinary study explores its increasing popularity and
prestige, offering a full account of the Book of Hours as a book -
how it was acquired, how it was read to guide prayer and teach
literacy and what it meant to its owners as a personal possession.
Based on the study of over 500 manuscripts and printed books from
France, Virginia Reinburg combines a social history of the Book of
Hours with an ethnography of prayer. Approaching the practice of
prayer as both speech and ritual, she argues that a central part of
the Book of Hours' appeal for lay people was its role as a bridge
between the liturgy and the home. Reinburg describes how the Book
of Hours shaped religious practice through the ways in which it was
used.
