Here is a sample from our Advent/Christmas responsive reading for worshipping communities, called Incarnation.

The full version, and fully designed PDF can be purchased here for printing (small fee), but this is a sample below.

Hope my friends don’t mind if I ask for the price of a bagel and coffee for it. It’s an artist’s time and energy thing, and I have teenagers to raise. If you really can’t afford the $5, just let me know and I’ll email you one.

Sheltering Mercy: Prayers Inspired by the Psalms

Sheltering Mercy, along with its companion volume, 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 75 prayers drawn from Psalms 1-75, providing lyrical sketches of what authors Ryan Smith and Dan Wilt have seen, heard, and felt while sojourning in the Psalms. Each prayer is a response to the Psalms written in harmony with Scripture. These prayers help us quiet our hearts before God and welcome us into a safe place amid the storms of life.

This artful, poetic, and classic devotional book features compelling custom illustrations and foil-stamped hardcover binding, offering a fresh way to reflect on and pray the Psalms.
