Echoing the petition of the disciples, Lord, teach us to pray, this book guides the reader through the challenges of discipleship and the various stages of prayer. Fr. Kirby lovingly and expertly examines this crucial petition, shedding light on its three parts the call to follow the Lord, to live virtuously, and to pray while laying out a course for growing in discipleship and strengthening the interior life.

Praise for Lord, Teach Us to Pray:
Fr. Kirby has created a valuable tool in assisting people to develop and deepen their prayer life. This beautiful work on prayer is useful for all people serious about their faith journey, especially young adults seeking to discern the direction of their response to God. It offers a “roadmap” for developing a satisfying prayer life.
