In reality, an extended advertisement for Roman Catholicism.
The author is an ex-Evangelical converted to Roman Catholicism, and it shows. He thinks he is attempting to be ecumenical, and as many ex-Evangelical Catholic converts, draws much from and has much good to say about the Orthodox tradition. Nevertheless, as he proceeds to discuss each word, the Roman Catholic advertising always gets to be a bit much.
The appendix has the kind of recommendations regarding the contemplative prayer life that I was hoping would be found throughout the whole book.
If you're Catholic, this is great. If you're not, there are much better introductions to the Jesus prayer and the contemplative tradition out there. ( )
