My struggles in prayer? e artist taught by a skilled master is truly free to create beauty; the spiritual person, taught by a skilled master, is truly free to pray. Among these masters, St. Ignatius of Loyola excels in o ering wise, exible, and e ective teaching about prayer. 2 WWW.CROSSROADPUBLISHING.COM When your life is at a crossroads Timothy M.
