At worship last night, I encouraged everyone to spend more time in private prayer. Here are some online resources that might be helpful as you attempt to find a rhythm for engaging in conversation with God.
d365 A Daily online devotional: www.d365.org/todaysdevotion/
Daily Office-Daily scripture readings and prayers: www.dailyoffice.org
Divine Office-Traditional Bible readings, prayers, and hymns: www.divineoffice.org (There's also a Divine Office podcast that provides audio of daily prayer)
Common Prayer for Ordinary Radicals-A book used by Shane Claiborne and his community of faith: http://www.amazon.com/Common-Prayer-Pocket-Ordinary-Radicals/dp/031033506X (this is a book you can order on Amazon. It provides daily prayer and suggested scripture readings)
The Upper Room-A daily devotional reading found in many church parlors: http://devotional.upperroom.org/
Presbyterian Church USA Mission Yearbook-Daily readings about congregations, presbyteries, and missions of our denomination, complete with prayer and suggested scripture reading from the daily lectionary: http://www.presbyterianmission.org/ministries/missionyearbook/
Finally, the PCUSA has announced that they will soon release a Daily Prayer app for iPhone. When it becomes available, I'll put the link on the psfnahsville website and facebook page.

About Engaging The Word & World
Welcome to Engaging the Word and World, the weekly blog for UKIRK Nashville. Each week I'll be providing some reflection on the scripture passage for preaching at next week's worship service. I encourage you to break out your Bible to read the suggested passage, but the actual scripture text from the Common English Bible will be at the bottom of the post for those of us who are reading on mobile devices.
