About this ebook

How can we find God? How can we pray? What can we learn about Jesus from the New Testament stories about his ministry around the Sea of Galilee? In this innovative e-book, Rev. James Martin, S.J. invites us on an actual retreat to answer those questions and to encounter God's presence in prayer and meditation.

Martin, an experienced spiritual guide, teaches you how to pray with Scriptures and answers your questions about prayer in ways that are accessible to both doubtful seekers and devout believers. This fresh, insightful and personal retreat experience is a must for anyone looking to explore this ancient practice in a contemporary way.

This enhanced digital edition includes reflection questions for personal study or reading groups, plus additional photos and video shot by Rev. James Martin during his trip to the Sea of Galilee for a full retreat experience.

"Together on Retreat" is an amazing gift from Fr. Jim. Under $10 and requiring only a few hours, it fit nicely into my busy, weekend routine. It will continue to be a reference for me in my prayer life, because it includes information about imaginative prayer and Lectio Divina side-by-side with photos and videos of Jesus' home by the Sea of Galilee. Then, there is Fr. Jim's guiding presence in words and video. I journalled by highlighting passages and adding notes; I know I'll return to this retreat again and again for renewal and reflection. Best retreat deal ever.
