The Prayer of Jesus explores the unique experience of the fatherhood of God, whom Jesus calls Abba — which in his native Aramaic language means "Dad." Throughout his earthly life, Jesus is in constant dialogue with Abba. From his Baptism in the Jordan through his public ministry and ultimately his crucifixion, this relationship will mark him forever, transforming his life and our lives, too.

The Psalter is the quintessential book of the Bible, meant for prayerful pause and contemplative silence. This little guide to the Psalms is divided into four sections: a general reflection on prayer; the breath of the soul, a panoramic look at the texts of the psalms; a portrait of the two protagonists, God and the worshiper, but also of the intrusion of the presence of evil; an anthology of brief commentaries on the psalms most dear to tradition and the liturgy.

When Mary has appeared anywhere in the world, the locations of her apparitions have points in common with the biblical places where she stayed and lived. This book reviews these places, examining what they reveal to us about Mary's identity and what the inner spaces are that Mary asks us to dwell in today. This book also explores the unique relationship Saint Catherine Labouré and Saint Bernadette each had with Mary, leading us toward a new, deep revelation of Mary's closeness to each of us.

What characterizes, in a singular way, Jesus's teaching on prayer is the recourse to parables. Jesus did not invent a new system for praying. Jesus was not a hermit, a Buddhist monk, or a yogi. He instead chose the daily life of his people to teach prayer with parables. This book explores the parables in the Gospels explicitly related to prayer, with Jesus as your guide.
