Overview

Designed both for personal use and community worship, these prayers are jumper cables from the pew to the world (Maren Tirabassi, co-author of Before the Amen: Creative Resources for Worship). With riveting use of images drawn from the Bible-imaginatively applied to a contemporary context-Sehested's exquisite poetry illustrates how faith is always personal but never merely private and affirms that redemption is for the world, not from the world. What others are saying: In the Land of the Living is the cry of a modern psalmist (Rose Marie Berger, poetry editor for Sojourners magazine). And readers will be led beyond themselves in this poetry (Walter Brueggemann, well-known author and biblical scholar). Sehested offers prophetic, mercy-filled, prayerful poetry that demands deep soul-work (Taylor Burton-Edwards, Director of Worship Resources, United Methodist Church).
