With simple, down-to-earth language, Rolheiser illustrates the significance of prayer and offers techniques for how one can pray, the usage of examples from day-to-day life, Scripture, and latest writers. He delves into the places that we fear to head with our issues about prayer, encouraging us with gentle kindness and words of hope and inspiration.
This is a book for all manner of believers, whether your faith is solidly rooted, wavering between childhood religion and adult faith, or simply now not sure what you consider—or whether you consider at all. It addresses topics such as narcissism, pragmatism, efficiency, and self-gratification that work against a healthy spiritual life. Rolheiser takes us to a spot of contact and comfort, in relationship now not only with God but with our true selves as well.
