This thought-provoking work explores the intersection of spirituality and psychology through the lens of Centering Prayer, a contemplative practice rooted in the Christian tradition. Authored by Kess Frey and Fr. Carl J. Arico, “The Will of Divine Love” invites readers on a transformative journey, blending ancient wisdom with modern psychological insights.

Centering Prayer, a method of silent prayer that emphasizes resting in God’s presence, has gained popularity in recent decades as a means of cultivating inner peace and spiritual growth. Frey and Arico delve into the psychological benefits of this practice, drawing upon their respective expertise in spiritual direction and theology.

Beyond its practical guidance, the book offers a rich historical context, tracing the origins of Centering Prayer and its connection to the contemplative traditions of the Desert Fathers and Mothers. It also examines the profound influence of figures like Thomas Merton and Thomas Keating, who played pivotal roles in reviving and popularizing this ancient practice.

For collectors and readers alike, this gently used copy holds the promise of a thought-provoking exploration of the human psyche and its yearning for divine connection. While bearing the gentle marks of its previous readers, it invites you to embark on a transformative journey, discovering the timeless wisdom that lies at the heart of Centering Prayer.
