Reviews

Turner has written [these prayers] to introduce elements of risk, hope, challenge and creativity linked to the readings over the three-year lectionary cycle. Some are stunning prayers in the style of contemporary liturgical writing. They are less pithy than the psalm prayers, but with a similar bent towards social justice. -- Dana Delap * Praxis News of Worship *


Turner has written [these prayers] to introduce elements of risk, hope, challenge and creativity linked to the readings over the three-year lectionary cycle. Some are stunning prayers in the style of contemporary liturgical writing. They are less pithy than the psalm prayers, but with a similar bent towards social justice. -- Dana Delap * Praxis News of Worship * The collects in this book are short ... and yet you are transported into the prayer, you feel totally part of it, you want to believe the words in their entirety. They are readily usable as personal or corporate prayers on their own. In fact they are ready-made short homilies! This is one of the best books I have reviewed, and one which I will treasure for the depth of its content, clarity and relevance, and use regularly. -- Alan Rashleigh * Preach *
