Thirty Days with Jesus: A Guide to Daily Prayer and Contemplation on the Life of Christ

Imagine spending thirty days, thirty weeks, or even a special period of time, year after year, listening to Jesus in prayer. Thirty Days with Jesus is a versatile prayer program that focuses on the life of Jesus and teaches you how to listen in prayer. The guide is loosely patterned after a retreat in the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius.Daily entries include: a prayer theme, orientation to prayer, a key Scripture and reflections on the passage, a guided approach to journal writing, and passages for additional days of prayer on the theme. Using the additional passages, you can expand your prayer experience into thirty weeks, or even repeat key themes each year, following the liturgical calendar, with the overarching goal of deepening your relationship with Jesus. Thirty Days with Jesus enables the participant to take a retreat in the privacy and comfort of their own home.Rosage, David E. is the author of 'Thirty Days with Jesus: A Guide to Daily Prayer and Contemplation on the Life of Christ' with ISBN 9781579108847 and ISBN 1579108849.
