Becoming Prayer

A Franciscan Guide
  • By Simon Cocksedge, Nicholas Alan Worssam
$20.99
Product Description
Inspired by a vivid account of St. Francis at prayer - where he didn't merely pray but became prayer - Becoming Prayer introduces readers to the heart of Franciscan spirituality. Drawing on the enduring wisdom of Francis, Clare, and generations of Franciscans, including voices like Richard Rohr and Ilia Delio, it offers a rich and accessible introduction to prayer as a way of life. From moments of thanksgiving and praise to silent contemplation, readers will learn how to pray not just in church, but in every moment. Simon Cocksedge and Nicholas Worssam explore communal practices such as the Daily Office, liturgy, and online gatherings, and delve into prayer rooted in Scripture--through the Passion, the Stations of the Cross, and the Rosary. They also embrace the stillness of solitude: night time reflection, silence, and the Jesus Prayer. Inspired by The Canticle of the Sun, Becoming Prayer invites readers to experience prayer through a deep connection with creation. It shows how prayer transcends words and rituals, becoming a lived reality through simplicity, perseverance, and the pursuit of peace and reconciliation. Sacred spaces - both physical and spiritual - are honoured as places of encounter with the divine. Rooted in a tradition that speaks powerfully to today's world, and published in a milestone year for Franciscans globally, this is an invitation to an ancient yet ever-renewing journey of prayer.
