Endless Grace helps us rediscover the rich treasures of the Psalms--through free-verse prayer renderings of their poems and hymns--as a guide to personal devotion and meditation. The church has always used the Psalms as part of its prayer life, and they have inspired countless other prayers. This book contains seventy-five prayers drawn from Psalms 76-150, providing lyrical sketches of what authors Ryan Whitaker Smith and Dan Wilt have seen, heard, and felt while sojourning in the Psalms. While each prayer corresponds to a particular psalm and touches on its themes and ideas, it is not a new translation of the Psalms or an attempt to modernize or contextualize their content or language. Rather, the prayers are responses to the Psalms written in harmony with Scripture. These prayers help us quiet our hearts before God and remember the Lord's daily mercies. This artful, poetic, and classic devotional book features compelling custom illustrations and beautiful hardcover binding, offering a fresh way to reflect on and pray the Psalms.

Every day that we wake up, each of us faces a world filled with the clutter of bad news, difficult relationships, and unwelcome surprises. Hope is the inner belief that "...in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose..." (Rom. 8:28 NIV). Hope, powered by the rocket fuel of Faith, needs to be renewed in us every single day. Stories can help do just that. As we learn how to forgive, to embrace second chances, to walk well through the loss of a job, to grieve, or to experience God's love, we start to become people of hope in the world. Thirty Stories Of Hope is meant to give you daily strength as you embrace God's promises for yourself - and become a Hope-Giver in your own world.
