Ways of Praying

Ways of Praying provides a thorough introduction to the many different methods of prayer in the Christian tradition, and allows the reader to understand their own prayer practice ¿ and go deeper. For over thirty years this little book has provided sure and helpful guidelines for developing a personal life of prayer.
"This book should prove a useful and easily available reminder to priests, religious and laity, and especially to young people, of the vital importance of prayer.
Personal prayer is possible for everyone and is an indispensable means of fostering a close relationship with Christ Our Lord. I am particularly pleased to see the emphasis given to the reception of the sacraments, especially the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and also the part played by sacramentals in prayer. I hope that Ways of Praying will be read and used regularly by all those who desire to grow in the spiritual life." Cardinal Basil Hume
