Darleen Herriman San Diego, California. Dear Dr. Gray,
During Lent I arrived at weekday Mass early and grabbed a booklet from the vesibule
On the back cover was an advertisement for “Praying Scripture, for a Change.” I went home and ordered it immediately.
I have been reading it slowly…re-reading it….highlighting, underlining…
I must tell you – this has been a huge blessing in my prayer life. Thank you so much for “Speaking’ so understandably and
yet so intensely to the average person.
One night – I woke up – too sleepy to read – but since I play and teach music…at a secular school as well as the Mass…
I have memorized many of the scriptures – especially Psalms
thru song. As I laid in bed I decided to meditate on Psalm
23 – as I know it through the song….I went line by line…
slowly….and stopped at “heal my weary soul”…now…I know
that my body and mind can be ‘weary’….but could you please
give me some insight into the ‘soul’?
Thank you again for your book…and – I am again reading it
slowly (as I chew carefully to experience the rich the flavor) and putting each part into personal practice.
My Catholic/Christian faith is not a religion but a relationship and I thank you for enriching this as you share
the insights God has given you.

I am a gradate of a small Christian University (BIOLA)
and I have always loved the bible studies etc..but YOUR
book has made an extreme impact on my prayer life -
and I thank you for writing it.
