Reader Review:
 
This book is fantastic! The author, Jane Knuth is so down to earth and someone we can easily relate to. Jane is a wife, mother, daughter, sister etc. with the same daily challenges that we have. Most of us have a family member who seems to take care of something important (like in this case the "prayer list"). When that individual can no longer maintain that task (as in the case of Jane's aunt Kay dying), we come to the reality that "someone else" should take over. But Who? Our self doubt immediately comes into play. Can we do as good of a job carrying out the tradition like aunt Kay did?
Jane acknowledges very early on that family prayer, or finding time to consistently pray every day is not easy. Soooo many distractions tugging at us. Jane is brilliant in getting others involved in telling their prayer stories. Her suggestions on how to approach prayer and form a prayer list at the end of each chapter was very helpful to me. Not to go on and on, but the Epilogue sums up the book well. The general consensus by those who offered their prayer stories published in this book is "I knew it was going to be o.k.", "and what brought them that peace was prayer." Pray always! Not just when times are bad.
Again, thank you for this book choice. It was a great read.
