Practical books to help you pray more intentionally, regularly, and joyfully everyday in your work and personal life.
We’ve learned a thing or two about prayer over the last few years, however take our recommended resources with a grain of your own salty flavor. What has worked for us to grow in prayer may not work specifically for you, but we know God is working in all of us. We are not self-proclaimed prayer experts (and never will be), but we hope these books can enhance your prayer life and most importantly grow your relationship with God. We always love to hear about more prayer resources and skills that we can add to our list, so send us a note with any recommendations you have for us!
Our very own self-authored prayer guide for you to start praying everyday in your work. This book is a 20 to 30 minute read and a 6-month program, 7 minutes each day, to find out what God has planned for your business or team.
In the beginning, God created “work” and “worship” to be one. He never intended there be a divide between what we consider “sacred” and “secular” work. In this book, Patrick Lai walks us through biblical passages and concepts of God’s view of work and of worship—encouraging us to recalibrate our ideas and challenging us to do God-glorifying “workship” in our everyday life and work.
This book will help reignite your prayer life and deepen your daily prayer practices. It will carve out a path to prayer that’s honest, messy and utterly transformative. Prayer is a journey, and this book will help you transition your prayer life from a path littered with half-hearted requests to a treasured journey of ever-deepening, adventurous relationship with Jesus.
With all the distractions and busyness of everyday life, trying to remain connected to God can be a real challenge. Fortunately, a Carmelite monk named Brother Lawrence understood this problem and laid out a spiritual approach to living in God’s presence that is as practical today as it was almost four hundred years ago. It contains a collection of notes, letters, and interviews given by Brother Lawrence to his friends as a way of helping them turn ordinary daily life events into conversations with God.
We believe these books can be powerful tools to help you grow in prayer and deepen your relationship with God—especially in the context of your business.
