David Torkington How to Pray- A Practical Guide A The Roman Catholic Church has a 2000 year history of prayer ranging from the solemn Eucharistic celebration of the Mass to the inaudible sigh of the lover of God. From the prayers learned by rote at one's mother's knee to the prayer of the heart that traces its origins back to the Fathers of the desert, there is something in the Church's arsenal of prayer for everyone. Lectio divina, meditation, contemplation, the recitation of the rosary and prayer in action are all covered in these forty brief reflections which encourage us to "pray as you can, not as you can't." Taking a quote from the Gospels or a thought from a saintly expert in the art of prayer as a springboard for the suggestions made in these pages the author draws on his own experience as a spiritual director and retreat master to show how the advice given can be put into practice in one's daily life. He concludes with a series of brief prayers with which one can begin and end each day in the presence of God, in whose Spirit we are called to pray.92 pp. Price:
