In an age of noise and hyperconnectivity, Beholding invites readers to rediscover prayer as a welcoming space to simply be with God. \n \nThrough lyrical writing and biblical insig hts, Strahan helps readers move from having a transactional association with God based on work to having a transformational relationship with God based in love. Beholding calls readers to understand how … • Prayer is so much more than spoken conversation between us and God; it’s a way of existing together. • Beholding God in prayer is profoundly connected to beholding and dignifying others. • Embracing prayer practices from different Christian traditions digs a deep well of peace in the soul. • Our everyday, ordinary lives can become the meeting place for God through silence, solitude, community, creation, and hospitality. \n \nIn this tribute to God’s abundant love, Strahan shows readers that prayer can be more than a way of finding answers. When readers realize that prayer can be a way of learning God’s heart language, they see that they are already closer to God than they dare imagine. Show more
