Helpful Insights into Prayer

William Barry's WHAT DO I WANT IN PRAYER was published nearly ten years ago, but his information is still very helpful for those who wish to grow spiritually. Fr. Barry is a well known Catholic writer and retreat director. His works flow from his Jesuit/Ignatian perspective and training. Fr. Barry believes that God can be experienced in daily life and prayer can help us become more aware of God's working in our lives.The book is not so much a "how to" pray book, but more of a book to help a person get more out of prayer. He invites his readers to view the book as a retreat and each chapter can be used as a mini retreat talk. The chapters contain prayer exercises which rely heavily on scripture and a person getting personally involved in the scripture passages. The chapters help a person get in touch with the deepest desires of the heart and aid a person in getting to know Jesus in a more personal manner. Readers will discover that Barry leads a person from the very basics to a desire to serve God in all things.This book is helpful to people who want to experience more from prayer and is written in a manner that is inviting. For people more mature in prayer and spiritual techniques, it will more than likely include new insights that will deepen the life of prayer. The book can be used by individuals, but it can also be interesting to use this book with a prayer group.
