Description

In this book Father William Barry, an experienced spiritual guide, has given names to some of the desires people bring to prayer. All of them in some way have to do with relationship. People say 'I want to know God better, ' or 'I want to be certain God loves me.' In short chapters that follow a sequential pattern, Barry explores fifteen such desires.
