Author: Fr. Gilbert Choondal, SDB –
The book has nothing to do with Facebook though the title, cover design and colour may find striking similarities. But, it has something to do with faith, one of the four pillars of faith, prayer. That part of the faith with a focus on meditation is this Faithbook.
The book contains 14 sections with a variety of praying methods and meditations. Each session is about specific type of meditation or a prayer method in the Church. They contain both principles and methods to practise them. The purpose of the book is given at the introduction. One of the objectives of the book is to help our Catholics appreciate and pray the several Christian traditions of meditations. Main audience of the book is formators, catechists and parents.
The subtitle to the book, “To pray always and all ways” indicates that this book is to help our Catholics to pray continuously and different ways. Basically, most of the Catholics confine to some prayers and Sunday mass to connect themselves to God. This book helps them to be connected to God continuously through the art of meditations.
The price is very affordable for a book of 150 pages today. It is a book needed for every catholic, especially formators, catechists, parents and every adult. We hope My Faithbook becomes Your Faithbook and Our Faith-book.
