‘Opening to God - a guide to prayer’ Thomas H. Green.

This is a very helpful book on prayer, the irrelevance and relevance of prayer ie.- discernment, techniques of prayer, purification of the soul, the ways of prayer for beginners and prayer beyond the beginnings. Thomas Green is the author of 8 books on the spiritual life and is an internationally recognised writer, teacher & mentor. He has served for 35 yrs at San Jose Seminary in Manila where he is spiritual director and professor of Philosophy & Pastoral theology. Many people ask “What is prayer”, ‘WIll it help me, how do you pray’ & this book makes the exercises, techniques & reflections of the great spiritual writers like Ignatius, Teresa & John of the Cross - attractive & intelligible to people who need God, seek God and are asking how to communicate with him”.
Thank you Thomas Green, thank you Peninsula library for shelving this useful book.
