Manifesting God

A book published by Lantern in April 2005 (152 pages). It takes its starting point from the "inner room" of Matthew 6:6, where Jesus tells his disciples to pray in secret, and describes that silent space as the place where God acts as a divine therapist, healing the false self and showing the barriers we put up against an authentic relationship with God. The book explains the guidelines of centering prayer and gives advice on deepening the relationship it opens. It also treats three parables, the Great Banquet, the Leaven, and the Publican and the Pharisee, in relation to contemplative prayer. Lantern later issued sections of it as the ebooks On Prayer, On Parables and On Divine Therapy.
