Items related to Praying with Body and Soul: A Way to Intimacy with...
Praying with Body and Soul involves the whole person: our senses, our bodies at rest or in motion, our imaginations, as well as our minds and emotions. By paying prayerful attention to the body people will not only recognize the ways in which they already pray, but will learn how to deepen their relationship with God. Each chapter includes questions for reflection, and practical exercises, such as drawing, walking meditation, fasting, making music, dancing, and praying in sickness and disability. This guide to prayer can be used by individuals, prayer partners, and small groups.

From the Back Cover:
"One of the most extraordinary helpful books I have ever read on the relationship of our deep bodily-emotional selves to our spiritual unfolding. The book combines practicality with personal sharing, wit, poignancy, and deep spiritual insightful wisdom." ---Flora Wuellner author of Prayer and Our Bodies
About the Author:
"Imaginatively and concretely, Jane Vennard leads us into praying through our bodies, through our emotions and relationships, through our work in the world. The result is an insightful, biblically grounded, practical, and---above all---richly incarnational exploration." ---James B. Nelson Professor Emeritus of Christian Ethics United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities
"Jane Vennard defines prayer as the ongoing practice of 'bringing all of who I have been, all of who I am, and all of who I am becoming into relationship with God.' I find this approach to be a challenging test against which to measure my own praying, and I heartily commend her book." ---Melvin Wheatley Retired Bishop, United Methodist Church
"Jane Vennard's Praying with Body and Soul invites the reader to livelier, more spontaneous, and varied forms of prayer. Drawing on her teaching experience, she skillfully opens the reader's eyes to a whole new range of possibilities. Best of all, she includes prayer experiences with clear directives to try out for oneself." ---Kathy Coffey author of Experiencing God with Your Children and Thresholds to Prayer
Rev. Jane E. Vennard teaches spirituality at the Iliff School of Theology in Denver. She leads workshops and retreats throughout the country and serves as a spiritual director. She is the author of the Augsburg book Praying for Friends and Enemies.
