Thomas Keating was a Cistercian monk who founded the worldwide 'Contemplative Outreach', teaching people the art of meditation. This work brings together three prayer practices for each day of the year to enhance 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 11 of Father Keatings' 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.

Thomas Keating was a Cistercian monk who founded the worldwide 'Contemplative Outreach', teaching people the art of meditation. Father Keating's enlightening commentary on the contemplative meaning of the gospel, particularly the story of the siblings from Bethany, Martha, Mary, and Lazarus, fits into the great monastic tradition of Christian teaching. The talks on which this book was based were given at the John Main Seminar in 1998, the annual international event of the World Community for Christian Meditation. Previous presenters have included the Dalai Lama, Jean Vanier, Bede Griffiths, and William Johnston. A monk reflects on Scripture in the light of experience. He or she utters a word that startles his listeners into realizing that tradition is not a matter of second-hand experience but the living and human self-transmission of Christ to his disciples.

Collected here are the letters of a compassionate pastor to the people who ask her questions in the strangest of places?from airplanes to barnyards. ?Arising from a pastor's heart, these letters give voice to the struggles of the spirit and offer insight as well as compassion.

Helpful Reflections for Difficult Times examines the emotional and spiritual impact our earthly trials have on our hearts and points us to a prayerful and contemplative walk with God.

These reflections will lead you through steps of deeper communion with God through silent contemplation and prayer. Helpful Reflections for Difficult Times is for anyone experiencing suffering and longing to know the unfathomable love of God. The reflections focus on a specific Scripture each day and explore its meaning and application to a person's trial. Not only do they urge you toward a higher state of mind that strives to see God's bigger picture, but also, they encourage you through the mundane tasks of your everyday life. When we suffer, it is easy to become overwhelmed by the enormity of our circumstances. Helpful Reflections for Difficult Times declares that God is still in control, that God still loves you, that God has a plan and a purpose for your sorrow, and that God will bring joy to your life.
