Rhythm of Prayer
A Collection of Meditations for Renewal
«Beyond her ability to make a breath-taking sentence, and to tell the truth about the dying and rising of faith, Sarah is . . . by her own definition, a dangerous woman, with wisdom to spare about learning to love the broken miracles God offers us once we're honest about where it hurts.»

«Beyond her ability to make a breath-taking sentence, and to tell the truth about the dying and rising of faith, Sarah is . . . by her own definition, a dangerous woman, with wisdom to spare about learning to love the broken miracles God offers us once we're honest about where it hurts.»
Barbara Brown Taylor on Miracles and Other Reasonable Things
«Wise and funny, Sarah Bessey writes with hard-won hope that the space between healed and sick can be sacred ground. [She's] a faithful companion to those of us on the losing side of life.»
Kate Bowler, New York Times bestselling author of Everything Happens For a Reason: And Other Lies I’
«This book—the fullness, depth, and beauty of Sarah Bessey’s faith and artistic genius—is a miracle. Sarah, a prophet who cries out with fury from the pulpit and who whispers tenderly from the page, is simply my favorite faith writer. With Miracles and Other Reasonable Things, she invites us to lives of wonder by opening our eyes to the ordinary, extraordinary miracles of our days.»
Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Love Warrior and founder of Together Rising o
«Sarah Bessey’s Miracles and Other Reasonable Things is immediately one of my favorite books. I can’t think of a single other work that brings together such raw, vulnerable pain with such a real sense of enchantment. Sarah is not too pious to tell us the truth about suffering, but not too cool to tell us the truth about the magic, either. In this trail-blazing, bush-burning book, anything can happen: the Pope shows up, and God does too . . . except of course, when God doesn’t.»
Jonathan Martin, author of How to Survive a Shipwreck and Prototype on Miracles and Other Reasonable
«Sarah Bessey writes with wit, wisdom and compassion about one of the major fault lines that runs through our churches and our world – the relationship between women and men . . . Bessey sees God’s action in the world as a redemptive movement for all people towards equality and freedom, leading her to joyful conviction that "There is more room! There is more room! There is room for all of us!"»
Christina Rees, campaigner, broadcaster and writer on Jesus Feminist
«One word at a time, Sarah liberates us from the agony of bearing our stories alone, so we can follow Jesus (my favorite feminist) with more freedom and joy. I am so grateful.»
Rachel Held Evans (1981-2019), author of A Year of Biblical Womanhood on Jesus Feminist
«An inspiring compendium of original prayers and essays written by progressive faith leaders. Each entry is a meditative gift offering a gateway for one to sit with the challenges of living . . .»
