Summary: Encouragement for the journey
Comment: Thomas Green has spent his life teaching and inspiring others, and this book is another that will help many. It emphasizes that both prayer and action are necessary to our inner growth, but without being dogmatic about any of it. As a feeble student of John of the Cross, I find Green's clarification of his teachings very illuminating, but he makes Ignatius of Loyola appealing, too. Green obviously lives what he is writing about, and makes it a personal, friendly lesson, one much easier to digest than either author alone.
Each of Thomas Green's books is on a different aspect of the spiritual journey, and most people will be able to find guidance in one or another of them. This one is for those farther along the path of prayer.

Summary: Excellent guide to advanced stages of the spiritual life.
Comment: Fr.Thomas Green eloquently explores the mystery of prayer and in particular the kind of difficulties the soul encounters as it advances farther into "the dark night of sense and spirit". Drawing on the contemplative theology of St. John of the Cross and the active theology of St. Ignatius of Loyola, Fr. Green helps the contemporary reader find practical ways of surviving and surmounting the inevitable dryness and loss of zeal which inevitably develop in advanced stages of the spiritual life. I find particularly reassuring Fr. Green's thesis that our inner transformation and spiritual development continue to occur, under God's loving guidance, even when we seem to experience nothing spiritually.
