Before Amen Prayer Journal: With Inspirational Thoughts and Scriptures

Rate this book
We all pray . . . some.

We pray to stay sober, centered, or solvent. When the lump is deemed malignant. When the money runs out before the month does. When the marriage is falling apart. We pray.

But wouldn’t we like to pray more? Better? Stronger? With more fire, faith, and fervency?

This beautiful companion to Before Amen by best-selling author Max Lucado helps readers stoke that fire. It features quotes and scriptures to inspire both the prayer warriors and those who struggle to pray. An easy-to-follow outline of the key elements of the Pocket Prayer and daily format provides gentle guidance while maintaining a well-rounded, biblical approach to conversations with God.

These last few weeks at my church in the Thursday morning Women's Bible Study, we've been reading together through 'Before Amen' by Max Lucado. Let me tell you, I adore Max's writing, it always touches my heart and soul. Last year I endured through Ann Voskamp's 'One Thousand Gifts' and this year it was 'Before Amen'. Boy... Max and Ann really know how to grab your heart strings!

While I purchased the 'Before Amen' book from the church to go with the study, I was blessed to get my hands on the 'Before Amen Prayer Journal' from the publisher as well as a gift of some key fobs. What a wonderful gift! I gave out the key fobs to everyone in our class and it was a perfect number, God planned 'eh?

Max has come up with a miniature prayer to get the prayer rolling and the message is on the key fob so that it's always available to you if you need the inspiration. In much the same way the Prayer journal is written also with just enough prompting with lines in between to let your prayers flow on to the page.

Max Lucado has an incredible ministry of sharing in his books and while I'm not as in love with this one as say The Story or You'll Get Through This, Before Amen is a good book to read. So many times we cancel ourselves out of prayer, but why? In this little book (about nine chapter, I think off the top of my head...) you can travel through purposes, reasons, and ways to prayer.

What all do you have before your amen? Eucharisto, abba father.

I was given an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion. This book cover is on my Pinterest board and my blog, Michelle Dragalin’s Journey.
