The 50-odd chapters (extending only 4 to 15 pages each) cover arenas for using these forms of prayer, including "Dating," "The Trials of Toddlerhood," "Overbearing Relatives," "Terminal Illness," and "Buying a House." Each chapter offers a blend of practical and spiritual advice as well as a specific prayer. For instance, in the chapter "Changing Jobs," Hill suggests that readers prayerfully ask "what God wants for you" while also exploring options, such as returning to school or starting a business. Bear in mind that Hill's orientation is Judeo-Christian (he is currently completing divinity studies in a seminary), although he does offer spiritual gleanings from Native American wisdom as well as other traditions. --Gail Hudson
Spiritual Advice for All of Life's Challenges
More than ever in this frenetic world, we need support in all stages of life. So, like the old local pastor whom people called on in times of joy, crisis, or anxiety, this glorious book comes along to provide a wealth of spiritual and emotional nourishment. Open these pages and listen to an ensemble of respected spiritual authorities offer advice, wisdom, and prayers to address more than 60 of life's difficulties, from managing daily stress to coping with a terminal illness.
* On Being a Prayerful Citizen: Pray for change, stand up for what's right, and start pitching in.
* On Coping with Financial Crises: Change your spending habits and trust in God. If Job can find a way back, so can you.

* On Caring for an Aging Parent: Gently ask how you can help, then do what feels right for both of you.
With practical guidance on these and many more life situations, plus moving accounts of real-life prayer miracles, this precious volume will prepare you to face whatever tomorrow brings, in loving connection with God.
