Synopsis

Pray Your Way Through Your Day.

More than two thousand years ago Jesus taught about the importance of prayer and the apostle Paul urged Christians to “pray without ceasing.” Yet a rewarding prayer life seems almost impossible for those of us juggling busy schedules, family needs, friendships, home tasks, or a demanding job. We’d love to engage constantly with God: such as when we’re working, driving carpool, or folding socks. But how can we, when we spend so much of our days just racing from one thing to another?

The author of three other books on prayer, Janet Holm McHenry set out on a personal journey to learn how to draw even closer to God through this crucial spiritual discipline. Her findings led to PrayerStreaming, a life-changing guide to praying through the clutter and clatter of everyday life.

Tap into History’s Best Spiritual Wisdom Regarding Prayer.

Drawing from eight of the most respected and time-tested spiritual classics on the subject of prayer, as well as personal experiences of deepened intimacy with God, Janet Holm McHenry illustrates that incorporating prayer into the rhythms of life is in fact far easier than you think–and more beneficial than you could ever dream

Review

Praise for PrayerStreaming

“Janet McHenry not only writes about prayer, she pursues it as a lifestyle and makes me hungry for the same. PrayerStreaming is a collection of beautiful jewels, truths, and lessons gleaned by those who have walked the path of unceasing prayer. It is a resource to turn back to time and time again for inspiration and direction.”
– Joanna Weaver, author of Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World

“After reading Janet Holm McHenry’s book, PrayerStreaming, I see more clearly what it means to ‘pray without ceasing.’ It is not about certain words or spiritual tools or even a quiet place. It’s about laying our tasks and our lives before God each day, then asking for his presence and guidance. The book is an inspiring blend of Scripture, examples from real life, and teachings from the great prayer warriors of the past, including Brother Lawrence, Teresa of Avila, and Andrew Murray. Highly recommended.”

“If you want to stay connected to God throughout your day, there is no better book to instruct you than PrayerStreaming. I'm convinced that my moment-by-moment relationship with God will forever be different because of the time I spent with this engaging book.”
–Dr. Mell Winger, pastor of prayer at New Life Church, Colorado Springs, CO, editor of Fight on Your Knees, co-editor of The Transforming Power of Revival

“Walking in the presence of the Lord with every breath we take is what every Christian’s heart longs for, yet it seems unattainable. PrayerStreaming offers fresh insight and practical help for hungry souls seeking to spend time in God’s presence 24/7. Janet Holm McHenry has digested the prayer classics to bring us spiritual nuggets from those who best learned to walk closely with God. You’ll literally feel you’re sitting at the feet of praying saints of old as they share with you their secrets to a successful prayer life. Within the pages of this book, you’ll find the kindling wood to set your heart ablaze with a fire that never goes out.”
