"Teach us to Pray." The disciples’ cry to
Jesus has never been more topical. In a fast-moving,
hyperactive, technology-oriented world, more and more
people are trying to find meaning in their lives and to
develop a living relationship with the Lord in prayer.
However, they often find themselves at a loss to discover
reliable guides point to sure pathways to the art of
prayer.
In this book Fr. Jerome Bertram answers the plea
of so many of his contemporaries. Drawing on his own
experience and his vast knowledge of trusted spiritual
authors, he leads his readers into the various ways of
prayer. After a few introductory chapters stressing the
importance of prayer, Fr. Jerome takes us through the Our
Father, the very prayer which the Lord himself left with
us.
Along the way, he tackles common difficulties
such as distraction and detachment, thus providing valuable
advice for all who seek to deepen their life of prayer, be
they beginners or more advanced in the spiritual life.
Building on the insights of Pope Benedict’s
Jesus of Nazareth, the author provides an account
of prayer that is easy to read, accessible, and clearly
centered on Jesus Christ and the Church.
