This was an inspirational, action provoking text on prayer. Intended as a 40 day journey to be read during Lent, or a similar meditation, it provided insight into many ways to draw yourself closer to God through prayer. In the text Jonah Soucy, after discussing the ins and outs of each mode or method of prayer, he provided a daily call to action. He also included many suggested texts to show us how to go further in each type of prayer. After reading the book, I will use this book more in the future for reference.
