We live at a time when our outer world dominates and diminishes our inner world to a destructive degree. This is because the outer, material world demands so much of our time, energy and resources that our inner world has to make do with what is left over. We neglect our potential to be fully human. To remedy this situation we need to pay more attention to the relationships that make up our inner world, rather than focusing so much on the outer world of what we have and what we do. It is only within the relationships basic to our inner world, that we find the acceptance and the affirmation or ""the care that makes and sustains us"". (Heidegger). This book seeks to provide a practical way to strike a better balance between our outer and inner worlds by establishing our relationships as the center of our concern. ""Offers a sense of being at home with oneself that must be part of any healthy religious experience.""--The Irish Catholic.

This book is based on the belief that the three persons of the Trinity want to reveal themselves to you. They can do this only if you learn to listen and respond to this revelation through prayer and reflection. The primary purpose of the exercises in this book, then, is to provide a school in which you can learn, by a step by step approach, to reflect and pray. ""A captivating training course in spiritual living - a well-designed handbook for exploration of the spiritual life. It is carefully set out as a workbook with twenty-two exercises and its innovative accomplishment is that the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius are skillfully woven into this work.""--The Furrow.

Rewritten and Revised 2nd edition. Each of us comes to this book with his or her own ingrained images of God. Some of these images are inherited and some are of our own making; some are true and some are false. Although we are not always aware of these false images, they are the main reason why we have difficulty relating with or believing in God. This is why the essential thing Jesus asks us to do is to rid ourselves of these false images of God and learn to believe in the good news of God's love for us. This book is based on the belief that God wants to reveal himself as love to each person. It takes nine aspects or 'faces' of this love portrayed for us in the Word of God, each of which we need for our journey through life. Some of these we need when we are children, some as adults and some if our love is to reach maturity. The book also suggests a way of absorbing this love so that we might live our lives in an environment created and sustained by it.
