Beginning Contemplative Prayer: Out of Chaos, Into Quiet

Very good introduction to meditation and contemplation. I would recommended this book to anybody who tries to find better way to comunicate with God,who tries to find his own pathway to inner peace. Great summary of many different approaches to develop spiritual life.

Wide Range of Prayer Topics, Plus Simple and Light Tone

This book is, in my opinion, unique in comparison with the vast variety of other books on prayer - in that it covers a particularly wide range of topics, and yet manages to do this in a simple and light tone. It contains advice on how to quiet yourself and then continues with such topics as the practice of presence, lectio divina, the "dark night", the Cross, centering prayer, contemplation and other related topics. The author has included direction from Brother Lawrence, St. John of The Cross, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, Blessed Julian of Norwich, Thomas Merton and several others. There really is a great deal of information provided !This is a book that I'll, many times in the future, refer back to!
