Preface by Pope Francis
‘When prayer is true, a river of love enters our heart and we become full of the Holy Spirit: full of the Love of God!’
Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi
In this second of eight booklets on prayer, Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi invites the reader to re-discover the Psalms, and in them the “immense horizon that spans our entire planet and extends across the centuries”. No matter the reason for prayer, the psalms give it voice, capturing the deepest yearnings of the human heart, and teaching it to sing to God.
Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi is one of the best-known writers internationally on biblical themes. Former President of the Pontifical Council for Culture. He heads up the Courtyard of the Gentiles project.
