Drawing on the vast riches of early monastic writers, Roberta Bondi's book on prayer is real, salty, loving and wise. She invites us to keep such company with early Christian sources as to illuminate a way of praying, living, and thinking about life in mutuality with God. Amid the welter of books on prayer and Christian sprituality, this one shines like Epiphany and will empower like Pentecost.
