Rating:  - Finally
This is a very helpful book on spiritual direction and it does get into specifics. I've looked for a long time for a book with some meat and this is it.

Rating:  - Useful for those extremely serious about their spiritual progress
"Seeking Spiritual Direction: How to Grow the Divine Life Within" is a difficult book in the sense that it calls the reader to a full accounting of his or her life. Fr.

Rating: - Much Needed Book
I have dealt with so man horrible issues in my life and have been in search of a book that could show me the way out of the darn hole I have myself in. This inspirational read does just that, lending me the shoulder I needed to begin to heal. Other books that have helped pave the way for this remarkable book were "Nightmares Echo", "A Child Called It" and "Lost Boy". Giving me the courage I needed to realize I needed help to begin with.
