Synopsis
With her usual courage and insight, Barbara Fiand explores "the appointed time for everything" in her latest work, Prayer and the Quest for Healing. The author describes prayer and the experience of prayer in all its power and intimacy, and delves into the relationship among prayer, personal healing, and cosmic redemption. In the probing of our unity with all of humankind in its brokenness and with the cosmos groaning for redemption, Fiand's unique voice joins the lively reflections of writers such as Diarmuid O'Murchu, Desmond Murphy, Fritjof Capra, and John O'Donohue. Reflection exercises at the end of each section offer the reader an opportunity to integrate the material and to enter into prayer for personal and familial healing. The result is a challenging, compassionate, clarion call to recognize the responsibility we each have for healing the universe.
