Inspired by Jesus' prayer, his disciples asked him, 'Lord, teach us to pray' (Luke 11.1).
This book gives many time-honoured answers to that request. James Martin offers a wealth of fresh ways to pray, such as using nature as inspiration, tapping into one's emotions and finding God in all things. He also shows how the Church's tradition, from the Our Father to the Eucharist, the saints and pilgrimages, provides a timeless resource for prayer and spiritual growth.
'God meets you where you are. And the fact that you are holding this book in your hand means you are already open to that encounter.'
