Praying Dangerously<br />

Radical Reliance on God<br />

10th Anniversary Edition<br />

By Regina Sara Ryan<br />

“...reveals its rewards of sacred passion and naked honesty,<br />

of surrender and of the capacity to celebrate fearlessly...”<br />

– Andrew Harvey, The Essential Mystics, The Direct Path<br />

“A brave book for brave people. It gives encouragement,<br />

guidelines, and wise advice...” – David Steindl-Rast, OSB,<br />

Gratefulness, The Heart of Prayer & The Listening Heart<br />

“Eschews prayer as mere self-help, by insisting on serious,<br />

daily commitment.” – James Redington, S.J.,<br />

Vallabhacharya on the Love Games of Krishna<br />

To grow up spiritually we must relinquish a<br />

childish relationship to prayer as a superstitious<br />

ritual or plea for favors.<br />

A PRAYER LIFE FOR GROWN-UPS<br />

15,000 COPIES SOLD<br />

Readers learn to recognize the difference<br />

between prayer that asks for reassurance, and<br />

prayer that asks for God and stands for<br />

transformation. The author invites us to<br />

assume greater responsibility for our inner lives<br />

by choosing not-knowing, insecurity, and<br />

difficult circumstances as potential blessings<br />

and means of purification and inspiration.<br />

Drawing its wisdom from a multitude of<br />

spiritual traditions, this 10th Anniversary<br />

Edition is fully-revised, with several new<br />

chapters, including:<br />

■ The High Cost of Forgiveness<br />

Praying Dangerously<br />

■ Praying on the Subway, about how public places can<br />

provide us with continuous inspiration for blessing others<br />
