I'm inspired! I'm a walker, naturally (my daughter is right, running just isn't fun!), and I've been longing for a more intimate prayer life. So, Janet McHenry's book has inspired me to become a prayerwalker, too!
McHenry outlines a few basics for beginning walkers--safety, apparel, etc. She then spends a majority of the book providing insights into prayer--including biblical examples and instructions, as well as her own experiences with prayerwalking. She covers aspects from solo prayerwalking or partner prayerwalking all the way to ideas about who and what to pray about. While there are numerous books on the topic of prayer, this one is especially encouraging to me because it intimately combines something I need physically with something I desperately need spiritually (and emotionally, relationally, physically, etc.). The author also provides questions suitable for a group study at the end of the book.
This book was reprinted for its tenth anniversary and McHenry includes a special update about her own life and prayerwalking. I found her humble confessions convicting and inspiring for my own life!
Much thanks to waterbrookmultnomah's bloggingforbooks for the complimentary copy of this book for review purposes.
