The Daily Reader for Contemplative Living
Continuum International Publishing Group Ltd. (Verlag)
978-0-8264-3354-1 (ISBN)
This work brings together for each day of the year three prayer practices for contemplative living: first, a brief "active prayer"; second, spiritual reading; and, third, Lectio Divina. The brief introductory prayer sentences are from various sources - the Bible and traditional prayers of the church or of well-known spiritual writers. The spiritual readings come from eleven of Father Keatings books and one audiotape, with a month's worth of readings derived from each work. Each day's entry concludes with a brief selection from the Bible, or Lectio Divina.
S. Stephanie Iachetta, who lives in Rye, NY, holds a B.A. and M.S.E. from the College of New Rochelle and an M.B.A. from Iona College Hagen School of Business. She previously coedited What is Healing Prayer All About? with Father Peter McCall and Maryanne Lacy. Father Thomas Keating was known throughout the world as an exponent, teacher, and writer on contemplative prayer. A Cistercian (Trappist) monk of St. Benedict's Monastery, Snowmass, Colorado, he was a founder of the Centering Prayer Movement and of Contemplative Outreach. He authored numerous books, particularly of the trilogy Open Mind, Open Heart; Invitation to Love; and The Mystery of Christ. Among his books is The Daily Reader for Contemplative Living, compiled by S. Stephanie Iachetta.
