Four Homilies on Prayer
Theophan the Recluse
Four sermons containing the essence of his teaching: prayer is the first task of the Christian life and 'the rising in the heart of reverent feelings towards God'; how to prepare and recite prayers, how to train the spirit of prayer during the day through meditation, the offering of one's tasks and brief invocations, how unceasing prayer is reached and why it does not flourish without the other virtues.
