Prayer of the HeART
by Kelly Schneider Conkling
$15.00 Paperback

Prayer of the HeArt is not about "art" in the sense of making pretty pictures, or even about expressing an experience of God. Rather it is about the role of creativity in the life of prayer and using art as a way to open up a deep conversation with God. Readers will find a variety of drawing techniques and media to create images – the visual result of an experience with God. Those who use this technique invite God to be the director, writer, and artist of their hearts as they are introduced to the concept of "heart spirituality."
