Living Prayer is the story of Robert Benson's quest across ecumenical and denominational lines in search of windows into the mystery of prayer. Weaving a narrative about his experiences while seeking a prayerful life, he demonstrates how prayer can enter the fabric of one's existence...

Drawing on his own quest for the power of prayer, the author traces the prayer traditions of the world's religions, offers an ecumenical understanding of prayer and its relation to grace, and shows readers how prayer can fill and transform their lives.
