True Prayer: An Invitation to Christian Spirituality

This book was an assigned reading in one of my theology classes as a religion major. I had no idea it would be such a good book. The title leads one to believe that it'll be good but I didn't know this good. Leech encourages his readers to seek a deeper understanding of God through a very old style of writing; the traditional religious research style. As a whole it's difficult to explain but if you're looking for a "how to pray" book and really want to know what it is to PRAY this is the book for you!I'd love to hear anyone's comments about what Leech has to say!

A truly wonderful book on the gift that forms the basis of the whole of the Christian faith. Kenneth Leech has written a comprehensive and exciting book full of history, spirit and practical advice.

They don't write them like this anymore. Gets a bit Anglocatholic/borderline RC in the last few chapters, but the rest is highly recommended.
