Customer Reviews
By Joyce Guris, director of religious education and youth ministry Catholic Church of the Transfiguration, Marietta, GA
An honest and heartfelt collection of prayers by teens expressing joys, struggles, concerns, and hope. This book of prayer will touch the lives of many teens, reassuring them that they are not alone in their journey of discipleship. A MUST HAVE for every youth ministry office and prayer table.
By Gary Meegan, EdD
The prayers in Minutes of Grace come from the heart, from a place of honesty and lived experience where we are truly ourselves. These short missives to God bring out what is most human and most divine in ourselves. Some are powerful, some elegant and insightful, and some make us aware of a suffering world, while others are full of laughter and joy, but each reflects the wonder of God’s grace. Sit with the words and let the Holy Spirit work through these prayers and into your heart.
