St Teresa’s commentary on the Our Father, contained within her work The Way of Perfection, is considered one of the most profound ever written. Approaching the Lord’s Prayer with an eye to the spiritual riches contained within it, she presents it to us as a guide for living in God’s kingdom, ‘on earth as in heaven’.From Teresa’s rich and varied chapters, Fr Aloysius has extracted the kernel of her message and given us a manual that is immediately clear, direct and inspiring. To read and ponder St Teresa and the Our Father is to be instructed, with gentleness and perceptiveness, in the way of prayer. A handbook to friendship with the God who dwells within us, this book is indeed a ‘catechism of prayer’.-------Aloysius Rego is a Discalced Carmelite friar at the Mount Carmel Retreat Centre in Sydney, Australia. He has taught theology at the Yarra Theological Union, Melbourne and is currently involved in retreat ministry. He is the author of Suffering andSalvation (published by Peeters), on the theology of Edward Schillebeeckx, and of the popular guide to the message of St Thérèse of Holiness For All (Teresian Press).
