{"product_id":"pray-this-way-kevin-dudley-9781735807379","title":"Pray This Way","description":"\u003cp\u003ePray This Way: A Devotional Journey through the Disciples' Prayer offers a rich synthesis of biblical exegesis and the prophetic witness of the African American spiritual tradition. Dr. Kevin Dudley reclaims the prayer commonly known as the \"Lord's Prayer\" by presenting it as the \"Disciples' Prayer,\" a transformative pattern for Christian formation rather than a familiar liturgical recitation. More than words to be repeated, this prayer becomes a curriculum for faithful living and a gateway into God's redemptive work amid the complexities and tensions of everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRejecting a spirituality that seeks escape from suffering, this devotional grounds prayer at the intersection of personal struggle, communal brokenness, systemic injustice, and divine provision. It contends that authentic communion with God is discovered not by avoiding life's deepest wounds but by bringing them honestly into God's presence, entering the \"hush harbors\" where faith is refined and hope is renewed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing from the theological wisdom of both the enslaved and the free, from the contemplative vision of Howard Thurman to the prophetic courage of Ida B. Wells, Dudley celebrates a tradition in which prayer has never been passive withdrawal but a courageous act of spiritual resistance and faithful engagement. The devotional unfolds through five transformative movements: Acknowledgement, Alignment, Accompaniment, Assignment, and Agreement. Together, these movements guide readers beyond information toward spiritual transformation, shaping lives that reflect the values of God's Kingdom, prioritize the vulnerable, and challenge the assumptions of earthly power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth devotional and theological, Pray This Way invites readers to rediscover prayer as a way of life. It presents prayer as God's means of forming faithful disciples, restoring communities, and participating in the ongoing work of redemption in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Dudley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1735807370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781735807379\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Highly Recommended Int'l\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.53d","brand":"Kevin Dudley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49148653338879,"sku":"9781735807379","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pray-this-way-kevin-dudley-9781735807379","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
