A celebration of men's voices in prayer―through the ages from many faiths, cultures and traditions.
"If men like us don't pray, where will emerging generations get a window into the soul of a good man, an image of the kind of man they can aspire to be―or be with―when they grow up? If men don’t pray, who will model for them the practices of soul care―of gratitude, confession, compassion, humility, petition, repentance, grief, faith, hope and love? If men don’t pray, what will men become, and what will become of our world and our future?"
