Friends, Pope Francis has designated 2025 as a Year of Jubilee, and in preparation for that celebration, he has, in turn, designated 2024 as a Year of Prayer.

It is in response to the pope’s call for renewed catechesis on prayer that Word on Fire presents “An Introduction to Prayer,” a small collection of texts from my writings and talks on the subject: http://wof.org/how-to-pray.

This book explores the answers to questions like:

• Why should I pray?
• What should I say or do when I’m praying?
• Who exactly am I praying to?
• Are there different types of prayer?
• What do the spiritual masters say about prayer?
• How can I establish a solid routine of prayer?

My hope for this little book is very simple: that it might lead you on the road to prayer; that it might teach you something about prayer; and that, most importantly, it might prompt you actually to pray.
