Praying the Psalms with Beads

PRAISE FOR NAN LEWIS DOERR’S PREVIOUS BOOK, PRAYING WITH BEADS

Phyllis Tickle –author of The Divine Hours “This is an important book in the original sense of that adjective: it is a book that ‘imports’ to the church something that was lost in the Reformation and has been sorely missed during the centuries since. Protestant Christians, whether liturgical or not, will find here not only a missing part of their heritage, but also much counsel and instruction for their future practice of the faith.”

Lauren F. Winner –author of Girl Meets God “Praying with beads has been a terrifically important practice to me over the last few years. How thrilled I am to discover Nan Doerr and Virginia Stem Owens’s wonderful introduction to this age-old practice. I know this book will shape my own devotional life, and I am excited about the many people who will discover prayer beads through these pages.”

Nan Lewis Doerr is an Episcopal priest who has served in six parishes, on two university campuses, and in one mission in the diocese of Texas. She is also the coauthor, with Virginia Stem Owens, of Praying with Beads.
