Book Description
This work brings together for each day of the year three prayer practices for contemplative living: first, a brief "active prayer"; second, spiritual reading; and, third, Lectio Divina. The brief introductory prayer sentences are from various sources - the Bible and traditional prayers of the church or of well-known spiritual writers. The spiritual readings come from eleven of Father Keating?s books and one audiotape, with a month?s worth of readings derived from each work. Each day?s entry concludes with a brief selection from the Bible, or Lectio Divina.

 Contemplation April 14, 2008
This is very helpful for quiet time contemplation. Each day has a different quote and reflective paragrah to use.
Transforming Us Into Christ June 9, 2007

Centering prayer has one primary goal: to transform us into the image of Christ. This day-by-day reinforcement of the means of that transformation is invaluable. I use it every day.

The words from sacred scripture chosen for daily consumption are selected from many sources and reach through the page to inspiration.

This book gives you a short devotional thought each day that gives you a lot to chew on. I am finding this helpful in conjucntion with some other resources from the Contemplative Outreach Center. It is supplementing my spiritual discipline practices and helping me connect with God.

Excellent opportunity for short contemplative prayer time or for expanded prayer time utilizing centering prayer and lectio divina with provided selections. Like the notion of themes. Excellent.
