The Better Part

by Fr. Thomas Keating

The Better Part begins with a reflection on the New Testament family of Martha, Mary, and Lazarus as "a household of persons at various stages of the spiritual life."

The stages of the spiritual life are then related to Centering Prayer as "a series of movements into the presence of God at ever-deeper levels."

You can obtain a copy by visiting the Contemplative Outreach Bookstore.
