Thomas Merton


Known for his mystical theology, Thomas Merton wrote many books on the topic of contemplation, meditation, and prayer.  One of the foremost Catholic writers in the last half of the 20th Century, I urge anyone interested in the inner life to read any or all of the following books by Merton:
  • "New Seeds of Contemplation"
  • "Contemplative Prayer"
  • "Thoughts in Solitude"
  • "No Man is an Island"
