Theology of Prayer

Dominic Robinson SJ

This series of talks will address what the Church teaches on prayer and how this informs a distinctively Catholic spirituality. The first talk outlines the teaching on prayer in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. We then focus on some key dimensions of the Church’s prayer life which are distinctively Catholic: devotion to Our Lady and the saints; praying for the dead; and the devotion to the Sacred Heart in its Ignatian context.
