The phenomenology of prayer

He challenges traditional notions of prayer as petition or supplication, instead highlighting its role in cultivating attentiveness, responsibility, and a deeper relationship with the world.
The book explores the transformative power of prayer to shape our perception and our engagement with the divine and the created order.
It's a significant contribution to theological and philosophical discussions on prayer.
