Prayer by Hans Urs von Balthasar
A theological and spiritual exploration of prayer that presents it as the primary human response to God’s initiative, rooted in the life of the Trinity and centered in Christ; it surveys forms of prayer—petition, praise, meditation, and contemplative silence—while warning against self-centered or manipulative approaches and urging humility, obedience, and attentive listening. The work places personal devotion alongside liturgy and communal prayer, portraying true prayer not as a technique but as a transformational participation in God’s life and love that shapes Christian maturity and action.
