FRANCISCAN PRAYER
By ~ Ilia Delio, OSF
"Everyone, says Delio, sems to know about Francis' life, his miracles, his devotion to evangelization and his dedication to living a simple and humble life, yet few know about his prayer life, which seemed, over the centuries, to get lost in the paper shuffle between theologians, followers and historical biographer." "Delio also uses the insights of St. Bonaventure and St. Clare as well as St. Francis to fully show the meaning and purpose of prayer in the Franciscan tradition." Each chapter closes with a meditation and discussion questions for individual use or group sharing. Each chapter has extensive notes. Paper back, 198 pages ~ published by St. Anthony Press.
