Praying the Way Jesus Prayed
One of the main reasons why people don’t pray—or don’t pray more often—is because they don’t know how to pray. In Praying the Way Jesus Prayed, Mark Link, SJ, simplifies and clarifies for everyone the process of how to pray. By looking closely at the example of Jesus, Fr. Link shows readers uncomfortable with praying how to pray effectively, and he shows those who already routinely engage in prayer how to pray in ways that lead to an even richer, deeper communication with God.
