Set aside some time and learn how to bring a deep prayer life into what is often the chaos of this day-to-day world. Don't think you need to "run away" in order to find peace and time for prayer. God wants to enter your world and then make that world a peaceful and prayerful one, right where you are, right now. Will you permit Him to do so?

Our Lord longs for us to step away from the distractions of life and be with Him. This call is not just for those in the monastic life or the priesthood. He calls all men and women to a deep and intimate knowledge of Himself. This applies to the over-busy mother of many, to the stressed and time-crunched father of a family, and to the college graduate establishing himself in a career and readying himself for family life.

This book is designed to teach Christians in all states and stages of life the practical means of making time for prayer within the busy days that characterize this life. It also provides the reader with ways to make a "sneak-away retreat," as well as nine reflections, based on the writings of St. Alphonsus Liguori, to assist any times of meditation.

A deep and intimate prayer life is within our grasp. Sometimes, we just need someone to show us how to seize it, how to make the time, and how to use that time effectively. In this book, author Charles D. Fraune will show you how to seize those scattered moments in the day and use them to establish and maintain an intimate friendship with God.

Charles D. Fraune is a teacher, speaker, and author of the best-selling spiritual warfare book: Slaying Dragons: What Exorcists See & What We Should Know, endorsed by Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Bishop Joseph Strickland, and exorcist Msgr.
