Publisher's Synopsis
"This book is a dialogue between two spiritual seekers-one a Trappist monk and the other a married professional woman. Brother Paul writes as one steeped in silence and the daily rhythms of the ancient prayer practices of monasticism. Judith Valente writes as a professional woman attempting to bring a sense of prayer and contemplation to a scattered life in the secular world. This is a window on the lives of two people, living their lives on purpose (or not) and struggling to come to terms with the big issues everyone faces: from faith to mortality to mystery to prayer to work. It is a book that provides insight and inspiration for those walking the spiritual path-particularly for those interested in the contemplative path"--.
