Extraordinary advance praise for Praying for Strangers
“Praying for Strangers will bless you and alter the way you see those seemingly random people that God places daily in your path.”—Ron Hall, New York Times Bestselling co-author of Same Kind of Different As Me
“— River Jordan resolves to pray for a stranger every single day for a year. And it’s the beginning of something extraordinary. Praying for Strangers reminds us (through the power of this tiny, seemingly insignificant act) that we can never assume we know the vast universe that exists inside the person next to us — or the one we are yet to discover inside ourselves. I have my next year’s resolution.”—Neil White, author of In the Sanctuary of Outcasts
“By means of story, anecdote and calm persuasion, River Jordan suggests an unexpected remedy for both our cultural malaise and our sense of spiritual powerlessness: that we make a habit of praying, not for people we know, but for strangers, in an unheralded, untrumpeted gift of Grace. The very act is compelling and quietly subversive in a culture where strangers equal threat and gifts demand notice. And in the end, the gift you might be giving is one to yourself.”—Janis Owens, author of The Schooling of Claybird Catts
