Tyler believes that justice is kinship, stories are a gift, and prayer is an invitation. Tyler is the author of Searching for Enough: The High-Wire Walk Between Doubt and Faith and Praying Like Monks, Living Like Fools: An Invitation to the Wonder and Mystery of Prayer. He lives in Portland with his wife Kirsten, and their sons Hank, Simon, and Amos.
This is a book for our desperate times. My friend Tyler Staton is a
world-class leader, a gifted pastor, an extraordinary writer, and,
above all, a man of prayer. By reading this book, you will be
learning from a master.

No book has ever left me wanting to pray more. In Praying Like
Monks, Living Like Fools, Tyler Staton opens our eyes and hearts to
the beauty, mystery, and value of prayer in the life of every
believer and skeptic.

To know Tyler Staton is to encounter a man who is consumed by what
it means to live like Jesus. And of course it is inconceivable to
live like Jesus without doing what he spent so much of his time
doing, which is prayer. Tyler has both given himself to this
life-giving practice and provided us with a compelling vision for
prayer in the life of the Christ follower. I emerged from this book
with my heart stirred to talk to God more.
*DR. BRYAN LORITTS, author of Saving the Saved*
Tyler Staton is one of America's most inspiring and gifted prayer
leaders today, and his brilliant new book flows from the deepest
place of his own personal life. At times it feels like holy ground.
I particularly appreciated the practical exercises at the end of
each chapter, as well as the closing section about the lost art of
praying for the lost. Tyler serves up the full menu of prayer-from
deep contemplative practices to teaching about the power and
necessity of intercessory prayer. There's something here for
everyone. It's both an on-ramp for those new to faith who are
seeking to grow in a conversational relationship with the Lord and
a master class for Christians who are seeking to be stretched and
inspired. This is a vital invitation into the highest calling of
every person on the planet, flowing straight from the heart of a
contemporary prayer warrior, a respected pastor, and a dear
friend.
