"Hackenberg's words have a heartbeat–sometimes they are beautiful and otherworldly; other time they are simple and earthy. When I read her prayers, I'm sure I have just prayed. But she wants me to take up my pen and pray. With a prayer, a Scripture passage, and a task, she gives me a personal invitation and permission to enter the incarnational practice of writing my words to God." – Sybil MacBeth, author of Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God <br/> "For some, speaking to God comes naturally–for others, speaking to God feels awkward, especially when we can't find the words or begin to stumble in mid-sentence. Hackenberg offers an alternative way. Writing to God is an expression of deep humility–it seems to say, «If I can write to God, so can you.» – Donald capps, Professor of Pastoral Theology (Emeritus), Princeton Theological Seminary <br/> "Inspiration can come at any time or place, awakening the artist, writer, and creator in all of us just by picking up a pen and letting the words flow. Living with this book will make each day a holy adventure." – Bruce Epperly, author of Holy Adventure: 41 Days of Audacious Living <br/> Designed for use during any 40-day period, Writing to God relieves you of the self-conciousness of trying to pray «the right way.» Ideal for Lent, this innovative new addition to the «Active Prayer Series» includesa a special section of prayers and prompts for Holy Week and Easter, for anyone using the book during Lent to deepen a life with God.
