Nobody Every Taught Me How to Pray: A 30-Day Guide Catholic Prayer for Beginners Silence, Scripture, and Finding God

Nobody ever taught you how to pray. That stops here. You came into the Church, or came back to it, and you fell in love. But then you knelt down, closed your eyes, and realized you had no idea what you were actually supposed to do. Everyone around you seemed to already know. You felt behind, unsure, maybe a little embarrassed to admit you were lost. You are not behind. You were just never shown. In this warm, simple 30-day guide, Caleb Ashwell walks you through Catholic prayer from the very beginning, one small step at a time. No jargon. No assumption that you already know the words. Just a few honest minutes a day, and someone finally showing you how. Over four gentle weeks, you will learn: - How to actually talk to God in your own words, without feeling fake or formal- How to pray with the Bible using Lectio Divina, an ancient practice made simple- The Examen, a five-minute prayer that helps you find God in your everyday life- The Jesus Prayer and silence, the deep, restful prayer the saints lived inside Each day is short. Each day ends with one small thing to actually do. And a rest day every week means falling behind never means giving up. By Day 30, you won't just understand prayer. You will have a real prayer life of your own, a daily rhythm that is yours, and you will never again have to wonder what to do when you close your eyes. If you have ever wished someone would just take you by the hand and show you how to pray, this is that book. Begin today.
