The ability to pray in partnership with brothers & sisters of the past was refreshing & enjoyable.
As someone who currently works 6 to 7 days a week at night, it was filling for my soul to be able to pray with another believer though it be through ink and paper.
Some of the prayers widened my horizon on different topics & people to pray for.
I found the author's prayers to be some of my most convicting and enjoyable prayers from the selection.

Soulful Journey with ‘Amen and Amen’
I’ve found that the combination of prayers and hymns in this book is a truly wonderful practice. I normally don’t sing in the mornings, but this book has inspired me to do so. Often after spending time with God, I’m reminded of Ephesians 5:18–20: “Instead, be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” This collection of prayers, songs, and hymns has embodied that passage for me. Reading prayers and songs from previous generations has guided and encouraged my own heart in my devotional times. These words have overflowed into my day, helping me meditate on God’s goodness, forgiveness, love, and sovereignty.
What I appreciate most about each prayer is the vulnerability and humility they express. They are honest and real, yet always filled with reverence and praise toward God.
As a singer, I’m especially delighted that this book includes both new and old songs and hymns. They always stir my heart and deepen my gratitude for Jesus.
Amen and Amen is a wonderful resource for everyone seeking to enrich their time with God!

Excellent compilation of assorted kinds of prayers! Just finished a 4-day solitude retreat and found it a valuable resource. Inspiring to be included in the prayers of saints through the ages!
