How can we pray in tumultuous times?
Days after the 2025 US presidential inauguration, author Sarah L. Sanderson emailed her family and friends with an urgent invitation. Her idea was simple: to stand outside the White House once a month and pray for justice. Within days, responses poured in from across the United States and beyond. What began as a solitary act of intercession became a movement of hope.
Chronicling a year of prayer walks, Without Ceasing is a prayer guide for those longing to see God's kingdom break into our world. Sanderson draws from Scripture, contemporary social reformers, and a growing prayer community to invite readers to engage prayer as a bold act of prophetic imagination and collaboration with God.
For Christians burdened by the state of the world yet unsure how to respond, Without Ceasing offers a way to pray with hope, work with courage, and trust that prayer makes a difference. This testimony of communal courage helps readers turn grief, anger, and uncertainty into faithful intercession. Walk with Sanderson and learn new ways to seek the welfare of your community, whether in a protest march, a community organizing campaign, a prayer closet--or praying outside the White House.
