MYSTICALLY WIRED ENDORSEMENTS
Smart, savvy, candid, credible, unafraid, first-hand-experience sure of itself, self-effacing and shot through with passionate love of Jesus…yes, hands-down, this is the best book on prayer that I have ever read.–Phyllis Tickle—Compiler, The Divine Hours: A Manual for Prayer
It began the day Jesus’ disciples came to him and asked, “Lord, teach us to pray.” Ever since, Christ-followers have been wanting to learn the ways of prayer. Ken Wilson’s “Mystically Wired” is an extraordinary contribution to that learning tradition. It’s a wonderful read that leaves you feeling, “Yes, this is for me. Yes, I can do this. Yes, it’s within reach.” – Brian McLaren, author/speaker/activist
Mystically Wired was a breath of fresh apologetic-air for me. I pray and I experience God, and I find fixed hour prayer deeply meaningful, but this book shows that God made us to do such things, and our brain is wired to communicate with God.–Scot McKnight, Karl A. Olsson Professor in Religious Studies North Park University
I confess, I don’t normally like books on prayer, but Mystically Wired is a big exception. While this book is incredibly practical, I was routinely blown away by the intuitive genius of Ken’s view and application of prayer. Page after page, thinking I knew what was next, I was surprised with fresh insight and unique perspectives on connecting with God. Being an evangelist, I was excited to realize I could also send this to spiritual friends who don’t follow Jesus as a way to introduce him.–R. York Moore, National Evangelist, InterVarsity Christian Fellowship USA
“Ken Wilson’s new book is fascinating intellectually and engaging spiritually. Its theme is a great discussion starter with Christians and non-Christians alike!” Dr. Joel C. Hunter, Senior Pastor Northland, A Church Distributed
In my library there are scores of books on prayer—by legends and modern guides as well. It is not easy to make a genuine contribution to this body of literature. But Ken Wilson has done so. Mysticism manages to bring together the best of the sciences and philosophies of mind, brain and consciousness with deep spirituality and candid personal reflection. While it will happily fit my on my shelf, it fits best in a heart yearning to pray. Todd Hunter, Anglican Bishop
Mystically Wired triumphs over the great heresy which has afflicted the church for the past 1800 years, namely Gnostic dualism which separates body and soul. This practical and wonderfully accessible book restores prayer to its biblical and Hebraic roots as an embodied practice involving whole people. I highly recommend this book for study groups and for anyone seeking to spiritually grow.–Rich Nathan, Senior Pastor of Vineyard Columbus
