Resource Reviews have two parts

Do a listing first. The listing that tells the facts about a resource – author/artist, title/name, features/contents and where to get it.

Do a review second. After the listing appears, add a review that tells what you liked about the product, what you learned or gained, how you used it and make recommendations about who would like it.

Each item is only listed once but may have an unlimited number of reviews.

Writing TipsStay positive. Recommend don’t critique. We’re looking for

good things you want to recommend.  We’re not looking for critiques.  Tell about a book that helped you and why.

We only list products on Christian prayer. Please do not list any books that deal with prayer methods of other religions.

Focus on prayer content. We include books that may be: a) on another subject, such as grief, but they have a chapter or

two relevant to prayer b) a personal life story where prayer played some role c) a devotional book that can be used for prayerful meditation d) a book on some part of prayer such as spiritual warfare,

confession, praise and thanksgiving.

List and review classics, old favorites from your bookshelf as well as new books and products.

Prayer books stay relevant. We have much to learn from books written in ages past by saints and theologians, books written by previous generations as well as the latest books dealing with prayer in modern life.
