A Quiet Place Apart

Using meditations in daily life, in retreats, in planning, in meetings, and in liturgies is the perfect way for one to introduce some quiet time -- time for personal thought and reflection -- into the day. This peaceful series of guided meditations by Jane E. Ayer can be used by individuals, youth ministers, catechists, teachers, pastors, and retreat planners in various settings.Each set of four meditations has a leader's guide that includes directions for preparing the meditations, the meditation scripts, and suggestions for follow-up. Guided Meditations on God's Justice and Compassion contains four guided meditations on the key biblical themes of accountability, judgment, acknowledgment, and selfishness. Meditating on these themes can deepen trust in the justice and compassion of God and motivate listeners with God's call to justice and compassion for others.
