When life has been traumatic it is too easy to listen only to the crashing sounds - the pains that have been inflicted on us and we which have inflicted on others. We can listen to these for eternity and allow them to continue to build up our resentments of sense of victimisation. . . OR. . . we can listen beneath those loud aggressive soundsto the deeper sound of God trying to be heard above the din. This book is an exploration of the practice and power of prayer. Using examples from his own life, Ivan Mann acknowledges how difficult prayer can be, and offer encouragement to persevere. He includes chapters on some of the better known ways of praying such as Lectio Divina and the Jesus Prayer, as well as exploring poetry and music, human relationship, scripture, the role of imagination and creativity and the place of silence as all means by which God speaks to us. We are reminded of the essential life-giving nature of prayer, and helpful ways to approach the deepening of our prayer life and relationship with God.
