Overview

Daily meditation keeps your faith lively, supple, and relevant. It irrigates the soil of your soul, making your life more fruitful and continually opening up new vistas along the path to spiritual maturity. Let God change you from the inside out. St. Alphonsus Liguori, one of the Church's all-time great prayer masters, believed that sin could not survive in the soul of a person who practiced mental prayer. 'He will either give up meditation, ' wrote Alphonsus, 'or renounce sin.' And a strong aversion to committing offenses against God is just the beginning of the benefits that flow from even modest dedication to Christian meditation. Join Father John Bartunek 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.
