God's love sets us free -- free from anxiety and fear, free to become our true selves. In a warm, personal style Fr. Max Oliva guides us on a journey that leads to our true selves, that part of us where we encounter the unconditional love of God.Oliva blends the spirituality of St. Ignatius, John of the Cross, and Teresa of Avila with the wisdom of the East as he describes various forms of prayer: meditation on the scriptures, prayer of the imagination, centering prayer, and quiet prayer. In addition, he shares a form of prayer developed out of his own experience which he calls the "Freedom Prayer", a way of rooting out the fears and compulsions that enslave us.Oliva, Max is the author of 'Free to Pray, Free to Love: Growing in Prayer and Compassion' with ISBN 9780877935216 and ISBN 0877935211.
