Product Description

Prayer is the key to tapping into the healing energy of the Divine. Yet for many people, prayer has been reduced to a rote practice that has lost its basic meaning and efficacy.

In his long-awaited book for an ecumenical readership, internationally renowned spiritual healer Ron Roth teaches his unique approach to prayer as energy medicine. The Healing Path of Prayer explains in detail the connection between healing, faith, and prayer. Roth shows you how to find your own path to prayer in a way that connects with God's healing energy. As Roth explains, you can use this energy for physical healing, and perhaps more significantly, for healing emotional and spiritual wounds that may be the root of physical maladies.

The Healing Path of Prayer offers specific guidance in setting up a daily prayer practice that is rewarding and meaningful. Through a series of simple but effective exercises and rituals, Roth shows you how to celebrate your own sacraments and become a mystic in the course of your everyday life. As Roth revitalizes many tired, traditional prayers with his fresh and inspiring reinterpretations from original scripture, he also recounts the dramatic story of when he discovered his healing abilities, as well as true case studies of healing in which he has participated.

The Healing Path of Prayer is a blueprint for a truly democratic spirituality. Each chapter offers a new, higher level of prayer, enabling you to acquire more advanced techniques of focus, intention, and insight. Roth's instruction on how to pray and establish a daily practice of meditation will lead you into a vital path of everyday mysticism and personal power.

5.0 out of 5 stars Healing Path of Prayer tops my list of meaningful books!, May 18, 2000

By	D.D. - See all my reviews

With a prominently Christian perspective, Ron Roth weaves together wisdom from all the world religions, to teach how you can build a meaningful spiritual practice and prayer life.

This book opened up a whole new world to me regarding prayer and healing. I highly recommend it if you want to learn how to make prayer a more vital and tangible part of your life.

I really like how inclusive he is of all religions and also how progressive he is in his relating Jesus' teaching about prayer.

This book is very easy and enjoyable to read. I have already given it as a gift to several people who also really enjoyed it. If you like this one, I also strongly recommend Agnes Sandford's book, The Healing Light.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ron Roth's work completes the healing circle, September 6, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Healing Path of Prayer: A Modern Mystic's Guide to Spiritual Power (Audio Cassette)

Ron Roth's teachings complete the healing circle. Where other leaders in the energy medicine field focus primarily on what causes disease, Ron teaches us how to move from disease to health. His beautiful voice and loving energy guide you to a communion with the love of God that is healing in itself. His meditations and practices are tangible tools that assist us in reclaiming our divinity.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true healer teaches us to connect with God in daily life, March 7, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Healing Path of Prayer: A Modern Mystic's Guide to Spiritual Power (Audio Cassette)

The book is wonderful, but I can't wait to listen to the tapes. Ron Roth's natural healing energy flows through his voice. This is practical, useful information for the truly devotional and the newly devotional.
