Beautifully illustrated, the book is organized in an intuitive manner that would make the book a wonderful guide for small group study or for individual practice. What struck me is how the author expands the notion of prayer and offers the reader a prayer guide that is borne out of his own deep longing for a more real and meaningful connection with God. Just as a good meal will offer a full range to the palate from light to heavy, from savory to sweet, Pray Like a Gourmet encourages the reader to experience a wide range of prayer practices. Brazzeal offers a number of "prayer recipes" from his own experiences. He describes many simple prayer activities designed to help one break out of his or her prayer-time rut. Throughout the process, the author encourages the reader to live with gratitude and to take note of the world in which we live.... Brazzeal advocates a number of different ways to practice prayer and meditation such as walking through the park and taking note of the people you see, doing a "museum meditation" at the local museum of art, or a "forest walk" to nurture a sense of wonder, praise, and gratitude. A quick glance at the Table of Contents will show the reader something of the range of prayer practices that the author presents: praising, thanking, confessing, blessing, observing, meditating, asking, interceding, etc. He even includes an important section on lamenting. Here the author very skillfully guides the reader in how to bring our sorrows and losses before God. The lament is a form of prayer we can find in scripture, but it is often not covered in your typical religious instruction.  It is certainly not addressed enough within the context of prayer and it is one more indication of the book's authenticity - that it is not just the "nice and lovely" that we include in our prayers to God. Moreover, as the author points out very early on in the book, prayer is not just a matter of asking for things. Having been to one of David Brazzeal's Prayer Tastings, and now having read his book, I can heartily recommend Pray Like a Gourmet for individual or group study. --Charles Kinnaird, "Pray like a gourmet--I love the metaphor. I know what it means to have been preoccupied by excellent food and wine. I have also learned to apply that strong desire to my personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to be nourished and sustained, even to the point of resilience. I shall keep this series of "tasteful disciplines" close at hand and consume them daily as I hunger and thirst after his righteousness."--Graham Kerr,  The Galloping Gourmet, "Pray like a gourmet--I love the metaphor. I know what it means to have been preoccupied by excellent food and wine. I have also learned to apply that strong desire to my personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to be nourished and sustained, even to the point of resilience. I shall keep this series of "tasteful disciplines" close at hand and consume them daily as I hunger and thirst after his righteousness."  --Graham Kerr,  The Galloping Gourmet, LIKE A GOURMET is the gentlest, most readable, kindest guide to prayer one could ever hope to explore. Reading through its storied pages, one goes from "I never thought of that before" to "I could do that" to "I want to do that" and back again. This one is an adventure for the believing heart. --Phyllis Tickle, My first heart in the margin (shorthand for "love this") is on the second page. My first exclamation point (good point/review note) is on the fifth, and it just never stopped: I loved this book. Brazzeal expertly uses his meal metaphor, drawing lines between lingering over or rushing through food or prayer, repetition versus exploration, alone or with friends, simple or elaborate. (It bears mentioning, he also knows when the metaphor doesn't stretch, and doesn't force it.) "Does your prayer life feel like you're eating the same food over and over every day--mixing the same ingredients but hoping for a new, more enticing dish? ... We, too, can push back and engage in seeking authentic, calm, and refreshing nourishment for our soul--each one of us, of course, with our own flair" -- Chandra We all get bored with the same old fare, eating the same meal everyday. How many days of leftovers can you handle? Brazzeal's book is an invitation to a richer and more varied spiritual diet.  He is a Creative, and sees the intimate link between creativity and spirituality. I absolutely love the 'recipes' and am eager to make more and taste more. There is a nice balance between form and improvisation (he gives you a structure but doesn't expect you to follow it woodenly) Brazzeal also has a rare gift of cutting through the ethereal and offering a practical approach to prayer. For example, his exploration of confession exhorts us to acknowledge sin and screw-ups, but he sets this in the wider category of a 'reality check' and taking an honest assessment of our life and circumstances (see chapter eight). He offers practical suggestions and clarifications on every aspect of prayer listed. I give this book five stars and recommend it to anyone feeling stuck, hungry, or bored in their prayer life. --James Matichuk, Beautifully illustrated, the book is organized in an intuitive manner that would make the book a wonderful guide for small group study or for individual practice.

Having been to one of David Brazzeal's Prayer Tastings, and now having read his book, I can heartily recommend Pray Like a Gourmet for individual or group study. --Charles Kinnaird, Brazzeal (Now Paul, He was a Servant) has written a cookbook for prayer--literally. After a first section that likens learning to pray to learning to cook and also notes the importance of food in the Bible, the author, who lives in Paris, divides the book into sections. Instead of soups, salads, sides, main courses, and desserts, these sections cover different types of prayer, such as thanksgiving, confessing, and asking, complete with "recipes." Thus "praising" prayers, which are likened to hors d'oeuvre, contain "recipes" that call for praying by writing down all the verbs in Psalm 147 or by creating a physical movement that opens you to God. Likewise, recipes for "blessing" prayers include visualizing a friend in a setting that represents well-being and joy. The book's voice is exuberant and the cookbook idea clever and appealing. Rather than a tome to be read and forgotten, the volume is formatted as a resource to keep handy, maybe even among cookbooks. The book might benefit from less autobiography and even more recipes, but it's still a delectable read, supplemented by tasty quotes from Christian sages.

Reading through its storied pages, one goes from 'I never thought of that before' to 'I could do that' to 'I want to do that' and back again. This one is an adventure for the believing heart." --Phyllis Tickle "In Pray Like a Gourmet , influenced by his rich culinary experience in Paris, I learn about new tools and tantalizing ingredients to add to the shelves of my prayer closet, ones I have never sampled before. Brazzeal describes traditional prayer forms like Praise, Gratitude, and Confession but adds some newcomers for me like Blessing, Observing, and Joining. For each prayer form, he provides creative, embodied ways to practice them. He is both a playful host and a serious chef at this delicious prayer banquet. Pray Like a Gourmet whets my appetite to expand and to enrich my prayer life. It is a book to use over and over again. With highlights, notes and turned-down pages, I might just want to make a space for it in the kitchen, right next to my favorite cookbook." -- Sybil MacBeth , author of Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God, LIKE A GOURMET is the gentlest, most readable, kindest guide to prayer one could ever hope to explore. Reading through its storied pages, one goes from "I never thought of that before" to "I could do that" to "I want to do that" and back again.

We, too, can push back and engage in seeking authentic, calm, and refreshing nourishment for our soul--each one of us, of course, with our own flair" -- Chandra, "Simply beautiful! David Brazzeal takes the hospitality traditions of the French and the Brazilians and stirs in spiritual disciplines and alternative worship practices for a book on prayer unlike anything you've read before. He reminds us that time with God is a rich and delicious banquet that we share together, and not a drive-thru fast food meal we eat alone. Nourishing and indulgent."
