In response to this search for peace, Trevor Hudson expounds on a simple prayer that most of us are familiar with:"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference." Trevor carefully explains the meaning of each part of the prayer and its application to our lives. Chapters include: Learning to live one day at a time; Surrendering to God’s will; Accepting hardships; Changing the things we can. The Serenity Prayer will help you develop those attitudes that will enable you to find peace even in difficult circumstances.

This special book, designed for weekly study, offers a prayer, a meditation, and related insights from the discussions that emerged during the "Hour of Power." Sought Through Prayer and Meditation brings the insights of the collective consciousness of the Wolfe Street groups to recovering people everywhere.
