COMPLETE COLLECTED INTERCESSIONS

Together in one book for the first time, here are all the intercessions Nick Fawcett has written over the years up to 2015, many of them revised and amplified. Covering not only the Christian seasons, Church year and other special services, but also a huge range of themes concerning society, the world and daily life, this is the perfect resource for all those charged with the demanding but vital responsibility of leading public intercession, bringing before God the needs of others, both near and far.

IN A WORLD OF TEARS AND SORROW: 100 INTERCESSORY POEMS TO GUIDE PRAYER AND INSPIRE REFLECTION

  

In this book of prayers with a difference, Nick Fawcett offers 100 poetic intercessions that speak in a way other prayers cannot quite capture. Encouraging further reflection, they leave the issues and concerns covered fresh in the mind long after the words have first been read or heard, helping to challenge, move and inspire. These prayers were written after the publication of Complete Collected Intercessions.

INTERCESSIONS FOR A HURTING WORLD: A HUNDRED JARGON-FREE PRAYERS FOR PUBLIC WORSHIP AND PERSONAL DEVOTION

In a hurting world that needs praying for more than ever, Nick Fawcett provides a new collection of a hundred jargon-free prayers to meet that need. Avoiding religious jargon and using instead, language that speaks to all, he provides an invaluable resource for those leading intercessions in public worship, so that they may pray meaningfully, thoughtfully and confidently. Intercessions for a Hurting World doesn’t simply remind us of matters we sometimes ignore or forget, it also brings home the reality of human need and prompts us into action. As Nick says: ‘we need to pray in the modern-day vernacular and, as far as possible, in words that speak to non-believers as much as believers. We need to include rather than exclude, to welcome in rather than shut out.’ Once again, these prayers were written after the publication of Complete Collected Intercessions.

RESPONDING TO A WORLD IN NEED: 100 PRAYERS OF INTERCESSION

A timely book in two parts – the first covers the Church Year and the second, specific situations, such as distress, deprivation, service and authority. As with all of Nick’s writing, adaptability is the key. The two indexes are a useful tool – a thematic index and a Common Worship index.
