520    "A collection of timely, stirring, and witty short-form 
       prayers (aka collects) that give language to the full 
       breadth of our everyday experiences-from joy to sorrow, 
       and everything in between. In his debut collection of 
       prayers, Terry Stokes names all the things we didn't know 
       we could pray for: student loan cancellation; strength 
       when we're about to make small talk; restraint when we 
       have the opportunity to be petty. The collection features 
       an impressive range of humor and inspiration, but also 
       spans prayers of lament and solidarity. These tender, 
       convicting, and entertaining prayers invite readers to see
       the wonders, joys, and access to God available in any 
       scenario we may encounter. By putting words to the 
       emotions and needs that lay beneath our petitions, our 
       celebrations, and our resistance, Stokes's prayers make 
       for an engaging and heartfelt read that will delight and 
       encourage any person of faith in the modern age"--
