An international best-seller, this volume of Prayers answers the longing for a book that helps us pray as relevantly as we live. With simplicity and awe, this collection of dialogues with God is drawn from the world we know-the subway, a drunken man in the middle of the street, a football game, the mushroom cloud. Offering more than a traditional collection of prayers, this is a compelling introduction to the life of prayer. Each prayer reminds us that we meet Christ everyday, not only in the liturgy and the Scriptures but also in what Quoist calls the 'Gospel of daily life.' Simple, strong, and heartfelt, this book presents the full range of human experience with the Divine-from mystical interior journeys to small acts of service and compassion.
