Prayer At Nights Approaching

JIM COTTER, concerned to shape afresh some of the prayers of the Christian inheritance, has compiled books of prayers for morning, day, and night, and a new version of some of the Psalms. In a second series of books he aims to make connections between Christian faith and everyday life through an exploration of such issues as sexuality and healing.

Seekers and church members today are rediscovering the power of many of Christianity's ancient traditions, such as Evening Prayer. For many years now, in England, they have turned to the writing of Jim Cotter. In fact, the New Zealand Prayer Book's Evening Prayer section comes largely from Prayer at Night's Approaching. In this paperback volume, meant to be treasured for a lifetime, there are prayers for the seven days of the week plus additional readings for the various liturgical seasons. Combining the best of the ancient phrases of the Christian tradition with contemporary images and language, Cotter's words encourage the reader to pray more deeply and experience God more fully.

This revised, expanded edition of the Common Worship President’s Edition contains everything to celebrate Holy Communion Order One throughout the church year. It combines relevant material from the original President’s Edition with Eucharistic material from Times and Seasons, Festivals and Pastoral Services, and the Additional Collects.
