Tricia Rhodes


Tricia Rhodes is an author and teacher who has served in full time Christian ministry for over 28 years. Since her teenage years, her life has reflected a passionate pursuit of intimacy with Christ through prayer, and she delights in helping others come to know Him through writing, speaking and personal ministry. Tricia's first book, The Soul at Rest, which was a Gold Medallion Finalist, has helped thousands develop their relationship with God by giving them the tools they need for quiet meditation and reflection.

Contemplating the Cross , Tricia's second book was a bestseller which has been expanded and updated and was recently released in a beautiful new format by 'W' publishers. These devotionals appeared on this website last year under the title, "Making the Passion Personal".

Her latest book, Intimate Intercession: the Sacred Joy of Praying for Others provides us with some tools and a refreshing perspective on praying for other people.

Tricia writes and ministers from her heart as a pastor's wife, mother and grandmother whom God has deeply touched with His grace. Her primary ministry is with her husband, Joe, senior pastor of New Hope Church, which they started together almost 24 years ago in San Diego, California. They have two sons, one of whom is married, and has blessed them with a wonderful daughter-in-law and two grandchildren.

Contemplating the Cross

Few times of year lend themselves to pilgrimage and contemplation like Easter. For forty days, Christians have before them the opportunity to examine their own path and compare it with the incredible journey undertaken by Christ, from the agony of the garden to the glory of the resurrection. By sharing her journey, Tricia Rhodes provides the tools to cultivate the cross within and the inspiration to accept the Father's summons to kneel in its shadow. Scripture and daily exercises gently nourish the spiritual traveler, while journal pages wait to hold the story of personal reflection.

More encompassing than a devotional, more intimate than a mere yardstick of faith, Contemplating the Cross will become a treasured keepsake.

The Soul at Rest

Many Christians today are discovering another side of prayer. Those who have learned that prayer consists of confession, making requests, and offering thanks are recovering quieter forms of prayer. They are finding the spiritual benefits of being still before God through Scripture praying, meditation, and listening prayer--forms rooted in Scripture and practiced by faithful believers throughout history.

The Soul at Rest is a quiet-time companion that introduces these "inward disciplines" to those who hunger for greater intimacy with God. An understandable, step-by-step journey into the practice of inner prayer, The Soul at Rest brings both inspirational teaching and practical exercises that facilitate learning-by-doing.
