12,5 x 19,5 cm / 159 pg In general terms, prayer is communication and therefore encounter. It exisis only through the medium of words consciously addressed to another attentive being or through their silent expression in an attitude of mind that is attentive, explains Père Daujat. Still introducing his subject, he goes on to explain how Christian prayer is characterized by an "interior ootpouring of the spirit in an intimate conversation with God whom we know and love as our Father and who loves us as his children". This book is designed to reveal to the reader this true character of Christian prayer and to explain and illustrate the various forms of personal prayer. Père Daujat shows how very different is true Christian prayer from the mere offering of certain verbal formulas in the hope of receiving favours. As one form or another of prayer is found in all religions the brief analysis in the first chapter of this evidence of a religious attitude intrinsic to human nature forms an interesting approach to the specifically Christian ide of prayer explained in the subsequent chapters. Communal prayer is not dealt with in this book since there is a whole section (X: The Worship of the Church) in the Faith and Fact series devoted to it.
