Dominican Sister of Hope Mary Schneiders, OP explores Dominic's relationship with God, and encourages listeners develop their own prayer practice that best facilitates growth and love and communion with God and all that exists. In Sister Mary's words: "The strongest indication that my prayer is right and true is not feelings of success or failure, or of having no distractions while praying, or having a felt sense of God's presence. It's all about surrendering to God's all-embracing, unconditional, transforming love so that we gradually become God's love present and active in this world. Whatever forms of prayer I feel drawn to, the only thing that counts is the extent to which I am growing in love, the extent to which my every decision and action is motivated by and expressive of the Love that God is."
