Summary
Prayer was written by Fox when he was a radical young priest fresh from the experience of the sixties and Vatican II. Originally published in 1972, it is one of the first works to herald the revolution of liberal theology that was just beginning to sweep the nation.
Originally published under the title On Becoming a Musical, Mystical Bear: Spirituality American Style, the book now has a more accessible title and appearance and is as vital today as when it first appeared.
First line
In pursuing a generic meaning for prayer it is first necessary to dismiss those popularized specific definitions of prayer with which catechism and uncritical texts have too long burdened us.
