Summary:
"A humble prayer calls down fire from above, and as we learn to live a life rooted in prayer, this heavenly fire grows into a profound awareness of the presence of God. This is the deepest purpose of prayer, and making this journey is essential for reaching the heights of holiness for which we were made. Dr. Anthony Lilles, Academic Dean at St. John's Seminary in California, shows you how to put your whole life in conversation with the Risen Lord within the Catholic tradition of spirituality. The wisdom of great saints and mystics will help you discover how to surrender your pride and appeal to God with humble trust, and how prayer addresses your deepest human needs. Dr. Lilles then shows you how the mystery of prayer unfolds, and how God provides heroic levels of courage and deep internal resolve through humble and persevering devotion. You'll examine how
spiritual
battles and dryness in prayer are essential to reaching communion with God, including the dark night of the soul. A Graduate of Franciscan University of Steubenville, Anthony Lilles holds a licentiate and doctorate in
spiritual
theology from the Angelicum and is specialized in the Carmelite Mystic of Dijon, Elisabeth of the Trinity"--Provided by publisher.
