Everything Starts from Prayer

More about the book

At the Home for the Dying in Calcutta, Mother Teresa often cared for the residents as they approached the end. As she was ministering to one illness-ravaged man, a visitor overheard her whisper a few words to him. "You say a prayer in your religion, and I will say a prayer as I know it," she said. "Together we will say this prayer and it will be something beautiful for God." These gentle words of solace and care provide us with a glimpse of a Mother Teresa often overlooked — the universal teacher of prayer. With this deeply profound collection of her writings on prayer, Mother Teresa offers guidance and inspiration for people of all faiths seeking to walk a spiritual path. The first and only book devoted to Mother Teresa's teachings on prayer, it is interfaith in orientation and appeals equally to Catholics, Protestants, disenchanted Christians, people of non-Christian faith traditions, and unaffiliated spiritual seekers.
