Do you sometimes struggle with your faith? Have you ever felt as though no one else on the planet could relate to your trials? Have you ever wondered whether God was listening to you? Does talking to Him make you feel as though you are spewing words into thin air? You are not alone. During some of the most challenging times in my life, my conversations with God felt one-sided. That is until He began speaking to me through His Word about various situations in my life. James 5:16 says,"The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working." God has not forgotten you. Through the writings of this book, be encouraged, inspired, and assured that Heaven is listening. God adores the fervent divine dialogue between Himself and His children. He eagerly wants to divinely deposit all that He is on the inside of you!

This major new poetry collection from bestselling poet and priest Malcolm Guite features more than seventy new and previously unpublished works. At the heart of this collection is a sequence of twenty seven sonnets written in response to George Herbert’s exquisite sonnet 'Prayer', each one describing prayer in an arresting metaphor such as ‘the church's banquet’, ‘reversed thunder’, ‘the Milky Way’, ‘the bird of paradise’ and ‘something understood’. In conversation with each of these, Malcolm’s sonnets offer profound insights into the nature of communion with God in all circumstances and conditions. Recognising that all poetry is a pursuit of prayer, After Prayer also includes forty five more widely ranging new poems, including a sonnet sequence on the seven heavens.

Often we find it difficult to concentrate on the prayers we recite, due partly to a lack of understanding of the biblical poetry in the tefillot. This book aims to unlock the mystery of the various psalms which comprise the tefillah. The book begins with an introduction to prayer, Tehillim, and biblical poetry. Then, after an overview of the structure of the morning service, each chapter examines either a prayer adapted from a psalm or the entire psalm and explains the reason it was chosen as part of the liturgy. Let the words of my mouth praise God and all mankind will bless the holy name of God for eternity (Psalm 145:21).
