What others are saying about Prayerful Passages …
When we are faced with the daunting prospect of marital conflict, separation, or divorce, we often cannot find the words to express our deepest thoughts and feelings. Jack Emmott’s Prayerful Passages gives us the words we need—words that can open our hearts to the guidance and healing that is available through the grace of God. For those who are seeking reconciliation and those who are dealing with the loss of their marriage, these prayers will impart comfort and hope.
Gregory Schaefer, Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist
Going through my divorce was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. As a Christian, I struggled to find prayers to express what I felt. This book, Prayerful Passages, captures many of the difficult feelings I had and still have. This book helps me cry out to God in prayer rather than just wrestling with my feelings alone. I believe that God has blessed Jack Emmott, and that these blessings will continue to shower in the lives this book touches.
John D. Glaze Divorce Client
A compelling sharing of compassion—this book shows the impact a prayerful, Christ-centered life can have on the human spirit. What a powerful read . . . I was wowed by its wisdom.
Larry R. Cook, CPA Financial Advisor
Whether you are clergy, a counselor, or a spouse, Prayerful Passages guides you through each step of asking for God’s help in reconciliation, separation, and divorce.
Dr. Mary Anne Knolle, LFMT, LC
Through this simple book of prayers, Jack Emmott speaks personally, knowledgeably and soulfully to those who are facing crises in marriage, separation, or divorce. His thought-provoking prayers provide very practical and prayerful insights that help to encourage couples to sustain their commitment to marriage, or, if that is not possible, to honor and respect each other in future proceedings. The author’s wisdom and faith shine through the pages.
Mary Kay Kickels, Ed.D. Consultant, Higher Education
Whether you are trying to save your marriage or are facing divorce, the prayers to create your peaceful future lie within these pages.
Tracy Stewart, CPA Financial Advisor
All you have to do is open to the table of contents to see the brilliance of this wise voice that pushes us all to see the world as a more inclusive, loving place where we are all perfectly imperfect children of God. Jack offers his reader empathy, wisdom and redemption for the human spirit. Don’t miss the wisdom of a man who has lived into surrender at an early age as his polio left him trapped in an iron lung to survive. But, he didn’t just survive; he blossomed and thrives today, venerating the love of the Divine for all of us. This is a must-read for all of us who want to live more fully into our loving relationships.
Micki Grimland, LCSW Owner and Chief Psychotherapist Southwest Psychotherapy Associates (As seen on Oprah and Great Day Houston)
Life, for all of us, is filled with challenges. Many people need and want spiritual guidance during this time, but don’t know where, or how, to begin. This book offers many prayers, specific to the concern, for those who can’t seem to find their own words. Thank you, Jack, for your insight and wisdom shared in this book.
