Editorial Review: Product Description: This work contains letters, ways and spiritual principles of Brother Lawrence, the 17th-century French monk who in his monastery kitchen discovered an overwhelming delight in God's presence. Average Rating:

He shows the reader in his humble, direct and powerful manner, how he or she can experience God's presence in the rough-and-tumble of everyday life. He writes, "The time of business does not with me differ from the time of prayer, ...

(Unfortunately, no hint of how this can be accomplished is given.) 2. Renounce the world and everything in it. (Larry Bro apparently had no family, career, or other extenuating circumstances, so he joined a monastery as a lay brother and cook.) 3. Pray ceaselessly, even while you're asleep.
