She Prays Like A Girl

The dirty little secret so many women feel but never express is that prayer is boring. More so than any other point in history, women today are busy, tired, and overworked, and they aren't fully convinced their prayers make a whole lot of difference anyway. The mythos of a contemporary prayer warrior has become like an Instagram model - we all think somebody else is doing it perfectly when the reality is we all have many of the same struggles, limitations, and doubts. In She Prays Like a Girl, award-winning authors Alana Terry and Jaime Hampton pull back the curtain to show that you're not alone in your feelings about prayer. Worrying that you always fall short of expectation doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. One of the biggest lies we've been led to believe is that there's some mysterious "right" way to pray and that unless you're doing it exactly like your pastor/sister/prayer partner, you're letting God and everyone around you down. She Prays Like a Girl brings up facets of life that are unique to women and shows how these beautiful and unique gifts can also give fuel and fire to our prayers. The secret is learning to embrace our individuality and stop trying to pray like everybody else. In a world where women are overworked, overlooked, and overwhelmed, She Prays Like a Girl's goal is to empower readers to remember that we have innate gifts that make us special and beloved of God, and that once we learn to embrace these gifts and pray according to the way God uniquely designed us, our prayers will change the world.
