Salt City Prayers is a collection of Sunday morning prayers offered between 1985 and 1995 at Erwin United Methodist Church in Syracuse, New York. The prayers include themes such as comfort, deliverance, faith, grace, growth, meaning, presence, and restoration.
“Though I did not know Robert Hill in the decade when he wrote and delivered these prayers, I have come to value his friendship and borrow (steal) his work ever since. These prayers are honest, warm, connective, and surprisingly timely. More often than not, they give voice to what I am, at that very moment, thinking or seeking. But while speaking for me, Hill is not speaking to me. Clearly, the man knows God.”
—William A. Ritter, retired United Methodist pastor
“Blending the voices of prophet, priest, and poet, Robert Hill’s collection of pastoral prayers mine the depths of the Christian faith in ways that will move and inspire the reader. The prayers in this volume will touch the heart as well as the mind, serving as a useful resource for those involved in numerous facets of Christian ministry.”
