Byrd explores the power of prayer, using as pretext a disciple’s request of Jesus to teach him how to pray (Luke 11:1-13). Byrd recounts her own journeys involving prayer, saying, “I find that my souls seeks the comforting presence of sacred love in the deep, raw spaces of this very human existence.”
