Archbishop Alfred Hughes: What prayer is, and what it isn’t
Friday May 17, 2024

Most Catholics are aware, even if only in a vague way, of the many holy men and women who have come before us who wrote or preached on the spiritual life. We may have read about their lives; we may find their holiness and closeness to God inspiring. But do many of us look to them for concrete, specific spiritual guidance?
Archbishop Emeritus Alfred Hughes has written a book that presents the luminaries of the Catholic spiritual tradition not as distant, unapproachable models of spiritual perfection, but as flesh-and-blood mentors in the spiritual life whose wisdom and insight transcends the passage of centuries.
Archbishop Hughes joins host Andrew Petiprin to discuss that book, “Spiritual Masters: Living and Praying in the Catholic Tradition,” and how he hopes readers will come to a deeper appreciation of the spiritual treasures of the Church, and a fuller understanding of the nature of prayer itself.
