Praying in Color by Sybil Macbeth

Praying in Color forever changed the way people pray--and will change your life, too.

Maybe you love color. Maybe you are a visual or kinesthetic learner, a distractible or impatient soul, or a word-weary pray-er. Perhaps you struggle with a short attention span, a restless body, or a tendency to live in your head. Maybe your prayers feel more like a list for Santa Claus than a love letter to God, or you're just bored with the same old prayers you've said since you were a toddler. Maybe you're not sure that anyone out there is listening, or you just feel deep in your bones a hunger to know God better.

The prayer practice Praying in Color(R) was born when Sybil's desperation to pray for family and friends intersected with her love of color and doodling. Praying in Color(R) invites the whole body into prayer and gives you a new way to be with God.

​It would not be an overstatement to say that Praying in Color rescued my devotional life from nonexistence. . . . I've given away more copies of this book than I can count. --Lauren F. Winner
Macbeth, Sybil: - Sybil MacBeth is the author of Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God (2007) and Praying in Color Kids' Edition (2009). Praying in Color uses doodling and coloring as a way to get still and listen to God. Sybil combines her lifelong love of prayer with her experience as a community college mathematics professor to offer workshops and retreats throughout the U.S. and Canada. Her workshops, both prayerful and playful, engage people of varied learning styles. Sybil is married to Andy MacBeth, an Episcopal priest, and is the mother of two adult sons.
