This ((NEWLY UPDATED)) 12 month Catholic prayer journal is ideal for helping you stay on track with your prayer life every month and plan out how you want to grow deeper in your relationship with Jesus. The journal starts off with prompts to reflect on St. Joseph, your role as a son, your role as a husband, and your role as a father. These are all on separate pages so if you don't fall into one of these categories it is easy to skip over. Broken down in a monthly format, this journal helps you to set up attainable goals, keep track of your sacraments, devotions, and prayer requests & maintain a positive mindset for prayer and thanksgiving. After the monthly planning pages, there are journaling pages for each day of the month. Each day has space for reflection on the Examen (based off of St. Ignatius) and the Lectio Devina. The prayer journal will walk you through how to approach these reflections! This journal also provides inspirational Catholic saint quotes for everyday living, Catholic prayers to remember during certain liturgical seasons, and scripture and saint quotes to meditate on. Grow deeper in faith by creating attainable, holy goals and tracking your progress monthly! Also see our women's prayer journal "My Catholic Prayer Journal"

"I would like to write a beautiful prayer," writes the young Flannery O'Connor in this deeply spiritual journal, recently discovered among her papers in Georgia. "There is a whole sensible world around me that I should be able to turn to Your praise." Written between 1946 and 1947 while O'Connor was a student far from home at the University of Iowa, A Prayer Journal is a rare portal into the interior life of the great writer. Not only does it map O'Connor's singular relationship with the divine, but it shows how entwined her literary desire was with her yearning for God. "I must write down that I am to be an artist. Not in the sense of aesthetic frippery but in the sense of aesthetic craftsmanship; otherwise I will feel my loneliness continually . . . I do not want to be lonely all my life but people only make us lonelier by reminding us of God. Dear God please help me to be an artist, please let it lead to You." O'Connor could not be more plain about her literary ambition: "Please help me dear God to be a good writer and to get something else accepted," she writes. Yet she struggles with any trace of self-regard: "Don't let me ever think, dear God, that I was anything but the instrument for Your story." As W. A. Sessions, who knew O'Connor, writes in his introduction, it was no coincidence that she began writing the stories that would become her first novel, Wise Blood, during the years when she wrote these singularly imaginative Christian meditations. Including a facsimile of the entire journal in O'Connor's own hand, A Prayer Journal is the record of a brilliant young woman's coming-of-age, a cry from the heart for love, grace, and art.

It turns to the timeless wisdom of the Catholic Church to answer the important questions men are currently asking. In short, easy- to-read chapters, the author offers pithy insights on a variety of topics, including • How to know you are an authentic man • Why our bodies matter • The value of tradition • The purpose of courtesy • What real holiness is and how to achieve it • How to deal with failure in the spiritual life
