FutureDay: “Full-Time Ministry”

By Dan Wilt

“This morning, we’d like to welcome all those, and only those, in full-time ministry to come to the middle for prayer. We’ll call just a few of you specifically:

Mothers, Television Producers, Graphic Designers, Fathers, Garbage Collectors, Neighbors, Country Songwriters, Fourth Grade Teachers, Roofers, Novelists, Journalists, Web Guru’s, Bloggers, Rugby Coaches and the guy who owns the skateboard shop down on Rupner Ave. — to name a few.

Thanks for regarding all ground as holy, if it’s underneath your feet. Let’s pray.”

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.
