New book for Mustard Seed Library - for discussion

Joyce has contributed a bag of books for us to consider putting in the Mustard Seed Library. The first book I've looked at is entitled "Breakaway: 28 Steps To A More Prayerful Life" by Mark Link, S.J. The book has many reflections from many theologians and people on prayer and perhaps it will be interesting to share thoughts about these reflections together, over the internet and conveniently as our own time might allow. One page of the book carries this quote "Prayer in the simplest definition is simply a wish turned Godward." Phillips Brooks
Joyce and I and maybe all of you are also desiring that the Mustard Seed Library at Emmanuel will be a source of inspiration and knowledge and truth and comfort and help for all who step through the door wanting to be closer to God and closer to all their fellow men, woman and children, closer to all of God's creation. That is our wish, that is our prayer. This is the first time I've ever attempted to blog--thanks for any help you can contribute.
God bless,
Sharon
