A genuine Christian guide on how to meditate - and the many practical fruits. This is an excellently written, thoughtful guide on contemplative meditation - on how to do it, and on how important it is for a disciple of Christ to carry an attentive spirit in a practical way into daily life. Fr Matthew's famous little text has become a classic, and has helped countless numbers to secure a simple and straightforward marriage between everyday living and, as he puts it, focusing our will, our heart, on God our loving Father. Far from escapism, genuine Christian meditation equips the disciple to live in the truth, and without fear.
