It's not often that we think about silence or its importance in living healthy, balanced, and productive lives. We especially need silence if we are to deepen our spiritual lives. This book understands the sacredness of practicing silence and explores how we can learn to incorporate it into both our prayer and everyday lives.
Much more than a commentary on silence, this book invites readers throughout the text to stop, ponder, and be silent. It includes both reflection content and practice exercises for exploring how silence might become an everyday habit.
Silence: Everyday Living and Praying is the perfect resource for:

“In our fast-paced world, this book invites us to put down the cell phone, turn off the MP3 player, and still our bodies, minds, and souls to experience silence. Take the time to pray and reflect your way through this book – even in small increments. In the end you will know the need for and crave the inner silence in your life.”
-Jill Maria Murdy, Director of Liturgy and Music, St. Frances Cabrini Roman Catholic Church, West Bend, Wisconsin
