Rage Prayers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781640657489)

A transformative collection of prayers that shows a pathway to a place where rage and anger are not barriers but bridges to a more profound relationship with God

In this groundbreaking collection, priest and social media dynamo, Elizabeth Ashman Riley, carves out a sanctuary where unfiltered human emotions resonate with spiritual contemplation. Along with her extensive and diverse TikTok following, Riley destabilizes conventional norms of religious discourse, beckoning her audience to transcend superficial affirmations and engage profoundly and honestly with a higher power. Thematically organized, each section explores uncharted territories of one's spiritual journey, providing a haven for a comprehensive spectrum of human feelings in conversations with God--who, as Riley explains, is far more compassionate and understanding than often acknowledged. Addressing pressing contemporary issues ranging from racism and healthcare disparities to climate change and daily hurdles, Rage Prayers promotes a spirituality grounded in sincere dialog with a deity open to it all. Riley warmly encourages everyone to approach spirituality with their true selves, nurturing a deep connection that appreciates rather than stifles inherent human complexity. Regardless of one's level of faith, individuals will find a revitalized way to reach out to the divine through rage praying, a technique pioneered by a cleric who wants us all to question, express anger, harbor doubts, yet remain hope-filled in our spiritual endeavors.
