Praying at Burger King | Richard J. Mouw

Richard J. Mouw. Praying at Burger King. Eerdmans, 2007. 144 pp.

Richard Mouw packs a lot of wisdom into a few dozen small packages. Writing in an easygoing, conversational style, Mouw here considers how the outward life of a Christian should reflect the inner workings of the Spirit.

Arranged in three sections—Living, Believing, and Church and World—the thirty-six short essays in Praying at Burger King explore simple moments in life from a spiritual viewpoint. Including columns from Mouw’s beliefnet.com work never before collected in book form, these pieces are alternately amusing, touching, and poignant. From chicken dignity to patriotism to a weeping Savior, Mouw reveals how an extraordinary God meets us in everyday life.

Ideal for group discussion or individual reflection, Praying at Burger King shows that “there is no place in all of creation that is outside the scope of God’s mercies—not even Burger King.”
