The spiritual readings come from 11 of Father Keatings' books and one audiotape, with a month's worth of readings derived from each work.

Cajetan da Bergamo's classic Humility of Heart and supplemented with writings from the saints and powerful scripture passages, Know Thyself will reinvigorate you each day in the struggle to be like Christ, to be “meek and humble of heart”.

Are you praying constricted prayers or disruptive ones? Most prayers are constricted ones. They are usually focused on self and envision God as a heavenly caretaker.

When we pray disruptive prayers, that's when the revolution begins. This book shows you how to equip leaders, fuel kingdom movements, and do real damage to the powers of darkness in the here and now.
