How can we deepen our relationship with Christ? Father John Bartunek discusses what the key ideas, the three things we can do, that we need, in order to pursue in this. How much time should we spend in prayer? What are the different types of prayer and when do we use them? And, how do we go about praying? What is the idea behind mental prayer, or Christian meditation?
