The Soul at Rest
Finding Enduring Rest and Peace in God
Many Christians today are discovering another side of prayer. Those who have learned that prayer consists of confession, making requests, and offering thanks are recovering quieter forms of prayer. They are finding the spiritual benefits of being still before God through Scripture praying, meditation, and listening prayer--forms rooted in Scripture and practiced by faithful believers throughout history.The Soul at Rest is a quiet-time companion that introduces these "inward disciplines" to those who hunger for greater intimacy with God. An understandable, step-by-step journey into the practice of inner prayer, The Soul at Rest brings both inspirational teaching and practical exercises that facilitate learning-by-doing.

Are you longing for a deeper relationship with God? Are you struggling to find balance between work and worship? This book by Tricia McCaary Rhodes is exactly what you are looking for. It’s a book to help you find a spiritual practice that calms your soul, helps you focus, and guides you on how to deepen your prayer life with God. For forty days you journey each day practicing prayer and pressing in by reading, reflecting and journaling. The balance quickly restores between life and prayer. You will grow in your faith as well as opening up your heart and letting everything inside go to God. He is there, He is listening.
I loved working through this book. I have always prayed, but didn’t feel the closeness that one can feel with God. It’s a practice that I need to carry forward. I can definitely see picking this book up again during Lent for a refreshing forty day journey with God, Thank you to Tyndale House for an advanced copy of this book to review.
