By Michael Franics Pennock

St. John Berchmans once posed this question regarding daily happenings and occurrences: What is this from the viewpoint of eternity? Prayer requires that we take the time to see what is essential. What is essential is often visible only through faith-filled prayer.Why Pray? helps teenagers open their eyes to discover the extraordinary in the ordinary, and to find in Jesus a best friend who truly companions them on the journey of life. Why Pray? is a primer course on prayer, designed especially to help teens understand the meaning of prayer, various ways to pray, including meditation and contemplation, and how to pray with and for others. In developing this knowledge and practice, the teens grow in their understanding that it is their friendship with Jesus that is most essential.
