At the heart of all prayer is a deeper inner desire for conversion of heart. This classic text by the well-known Dominican, Fr Wilberforce, establishes the importance of prayer in daily life, and systematically overcomes all the objections and difficulties people have in trying to establish a meaningful relationship with God through prayer. The booklet's great strength is the simple and practical steps it invites the reader to follow to reach a point where daily mental prayer becomes an integral and important part of everyday living.
