Help, Thanks, Wow (book)

Table of Contents

In Help, Thanks, Wow, Anne Lamott offers three simple prayers that can help anybody through trying times. These prayers focus on asking for God’s assistance, appreciating what God has given us, and seeing God’s majesty in the world today. Lamott shows how she and others use these ideas in life, and gives spiritual seekers advice on the way forward. She has said that her prayers focus on both “serenity AND taking the action.” Read this book with your young adult group, and ask young adults to reflect on the prayers and apply them in their own lives.
