A Guide to Christian Meditation: How to Engage More Deeply in Personal Prayer

Daily meditation keeps faith lively, supple, and relevant. It irrigates the soil of our soul, making life more fruitful, and continually opening up new vistas along the path to spiritual maturity. Join best-selling author, Father John Bartunek, LC on an exhilarating how-to journey into this time-tested method whose ultimate aim is intimacy with God, the Author not only of life but also of the life of the mind.

After a brief historical introduction to Christian meditation, Fr. Bartunek, provides both an elegant and memorable method for meditation along with very helpful examples of specifically how to put this method into practice. He manages to do this while keeping our sights on Christ, not the method. This emphasis helps the reader to avoid common and unfortunately popular errors that overemphasize the means and deemphasize the all-important end - a deeper relationship with Christ himself.
