Falling in Love

Keating talks about a love relationship with God. What is important is your INTENTION. As one who has desired union with God more than anything else all my life, this is a welcome book. For those of you who have plunged into divers religions searching for God this is the direction to go. Keating though fails to mention the preamble to union with God, namely justification with God through Faith in Christ. It is assumed you have found an initial peace with God, and this is the GROWTH of that peace to envelope your whole being and merge you in God. For those in christainity who have had a lot of high experiences but no steady relationship this book is for you. DO it!!! as keating says, and it will do you!! Enough cannot be said about the book, an excellent combination of psychology, philosophy, christainity, and sociology. An introduction to the practice of forsaking all to be with your sweetheart, living in you.....God

Keating's statement of the THEORY of centering prayer

If you are familiar with Fr. Keating's OPEN MIND, OPEN HEART, you know his advice on the PRACTICE of centering prayer. INTIMACY WITH GOD offers a clear statement of his views on the theory behind this form of prayer. The two books together provide an in-depth introduction to centering prayer, a form of Christian meditation that can lead to the kind of prayer called "contemplative prayer" and can transform your life.
