by P. Gregg Blanton Edd (Author)
A lively interaction between Centering Prayer, philosophy, theology, and psychology, this book poses three questions: What are the key practices of Centering Prayer? In what ways does Centering Prayer relate to virtues? How does Centering Prayer effect our relationships with others? In answering these three questions, Blanton identifies the key practices of Centering Prayer and then relates these key practices to fifteen traits of character. Finally, he proposes how Centering Prayer can help develop relationship skills that result in truer, deeper, human interaction.
