The 20th anniversary edition of a best-selling spiritual classic by one of the founders of the Centering Prayer movement.
Invitation to Love provides a road map for the journey that begins when Centering Prayer is seriously undertaken. A follow-up to Father Thomas Keating's best-selling Open Mind, Open Heart, this is a practical book, articulating the stages of the process of spiritual growth, and outlining how we might develop a deeper relationship with God and move from contemplation to action.
Pointing to some of the recognizable landmarks on this journey, as well as to its ultimate destination, Father Keating addresses common questions regarding contemplative practice: How will it affect my life? Where does it lead us spiritually? What obstacles will I encounter along the way? How does it work? Invitation to Love establishes a dialogue between the insights of contemporary psychology and the classic Christian spiritual masters, providing a solid conceptual background for the practice of Centering Prayer.
