"Prayers for Hope and Comfort: Reflections, Meditations, and Inspirations" is a collection of prayers and sage wisdom from a great span of sources. From Martin Luther King Jr. to Confucius, "Prayers for Hope and Comfort" is an impressive and memorable compendium of great religious wisdom in the form of prayers ranging from Christianity to Buddhism. As thoughtful and thought-provoking as it is inspired and inspiring, "Prayers for Hope and Comfort" is very highly recommended addition to personal, community Religious Studies reference collections and supplemental reading lists.

Each poem was clearly chosen with the reader in mind, as an act of generosity- a kind of "here, this may offer what you need." My favorite way of using the book is to open it at random and see what treasure I find within. Along with old favorites, I also appreciate being introduced to new authors and have looked many of them up for further reference. I highly recommend this book if you are in need of "hope and comfort" and who isn't these days?
