Morgan Derham - European Christian Bookstore Journal April 1994
"The title precisely describes the contents of the book. Noting the way in which 'lay' people are being encouraged to take a fuller part in church services of all types, as well as in leading different activities outside the traditional church services, John Gunstone has written a selection of prayers for almost all conceivable occasions. Under each heading he gives 14 different prayers for specific situations; and each major section begins with a helpful introduction. The language is simple and straightforward, there are relevant allusions to biblical reference points, and the prayers are helpfully sub-divided into short paragraphs. A useful tool which will enrich Christian ministry at every level."
Book Description
A collection of prayers which aims to support those serving in any capacity, from leadership to cleaning: prayers about leaders' loneliness, family responsibilities, but also for vision in, say, the drama group.
