Father James Martin explains that prayer can be accessible to anyone, ‘from the doubtful seeker to the devout believer’. After exploring some of the common reasons that lead people to pray he identifies types of prayer, including those that occur without awareness, and looks in detail at topics such as discerning God’s voice, finding God in nature and praying with sacred texts.
