<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In Being in Love, William Johnston addresses the question of the purpose of prayer. He shares with the reader the discovery of new ways to a prayerful life that is both meditative and active. <p/>His message is to surrender in love to God, to love God with one's own being, through prayer. Here Being in Love shows us how to pray--with heart, mind, intellect and body--as a form of communicating with God, one another, and the world around us. Johnston reveals, using his relationship with the Eastern traditions as a backdrop, the need and importance of finding stillness in our inner lives. He demonstrates in a clear and practical way, how we can make prayer a place for meditation and personal growth.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An inspiring and instructive overview of Christian prayer."-- "--Spiritual Book News"<br><br>"Clearly show[s] what Eastern spirituality has to offer to deepen our spirituality whilst keeping Jesus at the heart of it all. . . . a book to be read slowly and to be used as a handbook alongside one's daily prayer life."-- "--Reform"<br><br>"May well become a classic. . . .
