About this book

Today we find an abundance of ways to pray, but not many are grounded in Christian doctrine. Austin Farrer's classic work of spirituality--in its first American edition--returns us to the proper source of all prayer: the Apostles' Creed, the root of our faith. In brief chapters Farrer presents the breadth of Christian belief--from creation, through the person of Jesus, to life everlasting--and shows us how to pray, not as private people, but as the community which shares a common faith in God. Lord I Believe includes suggestions on praying the Rosary and provides an excellent introduction to the meaning of the Apostles' Creed for new church members.
