Synopsis: With more than two million copies of his books in print, Anthony de Mello remains one of the world’s most popular spiritual guides. In Contact with God, he draws upon his persuasive lectures and personal parables to guide readers through their own spiritual retreats.

Nowhere is Anthony de Mello’s characteristic warmth and insight more evident than in the series of talks he gave while guiding retreats. Known throughout the world as one of the foremost religious guides, de Mello offers here the transcripts from his beloved lectures, inspiring readers going on retreat and including suggestions for how to get the most out of the retreat experience. In Contact with God (reissued and available for the first time from Image), he intersperses his descriptions of various types of prayer with stories from his own life, as well as the thought-provoking parables for which he is best known.
