Jones, Mary
Books > Prayer > Prayer General
A little book of rapid-fire oneliners about life, the universe, God, Jesus, the Church and being a Christian from the award-winning comedian, and illustrated with his cartoons. It's refreshing, but not for the easily offended! 'Christianity is like a cornish pasty. There's something in it, but sometimes it's difficult to find out what it is.'

Wiederkehr, Macrina
Books > Prayer > Prayer General
In the Gospel of John Jesus directs us, “Abide in me, as I abide in you.” This book is an invitation to make the Word of God your home through the practice of lectio divina. Macrina Wiederkehr, OSB, encourages you to turn the words of Scripture over in your heart as a plough turns over the soil to welcome the seed.
In these scriptural meditations, the piercing reflective questions and personal prayers lead the reader into a deeper relationship with the Divine. Aware that drawing near the Word of God requires a special kind of presence, the author invites you to breathe in the Word, wait before the Word, walk through the pages of Scripture as a pilgrim, and, finally, abide in an intimate and transforming communion with God.
The format of the book lends itself not only to daily personal prayer and reflection, but to group faith sharing as well.
