?This is the most invigorating and enabling book about prayer that I have seen in years! Wry, funny, accessible, wise beyond all appearances, and deeply spiritual, MacBeth warms the soul as well as the heart. So will praying in color.? - Phyllis Tickle, compiler, The Divine Hours
Maybe you love color. Maybe you hunger to know God better. Maybe you are a visual or kinesthetic learner, a distractable or impatient soul, or a word-weary pray-er. Perhaps you struggle with a short attention span, a restless body, or a tendency to live in your head.
This new prayer form can take as little or as much time as you have or want to commit, from 15 minutes to a weekend retreat. "A new prayer form gives God an invitation and a new door to penetrate the locked cells of our hearts and minds," explains Sybil MacBeth. "For many of us, using only words to pray reduces God by the limits of our finite words."

 | Praying in Color Dec 22, 2008 |
| A great investment for under $20 that makes you smile, lowers your blood pressure, gets your artistic juices flowing, and gently guides you into prayer. This book is especially for those of us whose busy lives may leave us "prayer-challenged." The author talks about Prayer Frustration and Prayer Popping, and encourages her readers to "draw a new path to God." For novice pray-ers and those of us who've been at it for a long time; all of us who want to pray, and need something to do with our hands (other than keeping them folded) while we do so! | | |  | Praying in Color Oct 14, 2008 |
| This was a great new idea. I thot that more kinds of pictures, art etc. could have been discussed. | | |  | Praying in Color May 27, 2008 |
| This book presents a way to combine prayer and meditation with simple art production. I have been using ideas gleaned from it for over two months and find myself eager to pray each day. I have also bought three other copies to use as gifts -- a good indication of how valuable I have found it to be. | | | | Praying in Color Apr 20, 2008 |
| This book offers a very creative way to use simple drawing materials and doodling as a form of prayer. Using color, shape, and lines makes it easy to stay engaged in prayer, whether on behalf of others or for oneself. The finished product is a visual reminder of the prayer. | | | | No More Prayer Blues Apr 7, 2008 |
| In meetings or in church I doodle constantly. It helps keep me focused. This book has bought a new dimension to prayer and doodling. As soon as I received this book I started to put it into practice. I spent over 15 minutes colour praying for my 29yr old son and it was a time of great joy and rejoicing. I've found that these visual prayers stay with me through the day so that I'm beginning to understand more what it is to pray without ceasing. | | | Write your own review about Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God (Active Prayer Series)
