Prayer fascinates us. Studies show that even atheists and agnostics sometimes pray. But what
precisely is prayer? How does it “work”? And what are some of the time-tested ways to practice
it?

An Introduction to Prayer offers a collection of rich yet brief reflections on prayer in the Catholic spiritual tradition from acclaimed author, speaker, and theologian Bishop Robert Barron. This book explores the answers to questions like:

• Why should I pray?
• What should I say or do when I’m praying?
• Who exactly am I praying to?
• Are there different types of prayer?
• What do the spiritual masters say about prayer?
• How can I establish a solid routine of prayer?

And many more.
Perfect for beginners but filled with profound insights for those looking to further their spiritual life, An Introduction to Prayer will inspire you to seek out more frequent conversation—and a deeper communion— with God.

Do you know the real story of the Bible?
What do Adam and Eve, Moses, David, Jesus, and the Apostles have to do with my life?

In The Real Story, Edward Sri and Curtis Martin break open the Word to examine how all these pieces fit together into one cohesive narrative—
a story of how, little by little, God has drawn His people into closer union with Himself, culminating in the coming of Jesus Christ
and the establishment of His Church.

Through a closer study of the key characters and events in the larger biblical narrative, Sri and Martin show that the Bible ultimately isn’t a collection of disjointed stories, but an epic saga of God’s infinite love for us and His perfect plan for our salvation since the beginning of time.
