  Finding Our Way To God

  $32.99

  Finding Our Way to God offers an approach to spiritual direction using mental prayer that can be used to create healing and peace when conducting guidance sessions with seekers.Based on the teachings of St. Alphonsus Liguori, the founder of the Redemptorists, Fr. Dennis Billy’s approach examines the moral life in the context of spiritual direction. While thoroughly Catholic, St. Alphonsus was so pastoral – focusing on the poor and marginalized – that the approach can be easily learned and used by adherents of other religious, philosophical, and ethical traditions.

  In Finding Our Way to God, Fr. Dennis Billy:
  *Teaches active listening, which is essential for spiritual directors.
  *Emphasizes the continuity between a person’s spirituality and morality through growth in the virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit.
  *Provides an understanding of how the model of spiritual direction can be adapted to meet the needs of a wide variety of people.
  *Helps the reader use Alphonsian spirituality as a backdrop for conducting spiritual direction.

The Cloud directs the reader to know God better not through knowledge but through a contemplation driven by love and devoid of wordly thoughts and desires.In this modern translation Fr. Dennis Billy brings The Cloud into language easily accessible to the modern Christian and includes background information and his own reflections to assist the reader in contemplation. In a world where we have all the knowledge we could want at our fingertips, it is hard to sit back and contemplate on faith and love alone, but it is only through silence and love-driven contemplation that we can truly know God. The Cloud serves as a guide to lead us there.
