Trees of Life: The Prayer of Intercession and Its Cost Una Kroll
Doctor, contemplative, grandmother and priest, Una Kroll offers her experience of intercessory prayer. Showing how intercessory prayer can become a central part of life, she suggests ways which Christians can develop to pray to God. Thoughts about trees are interwoven in the text: real trees, mythical trees, and trees which carry the symbolism of life and death, and good and evil. Una Kroll relates her own story to these trees of life, to the word of God in the Bibe, and to the teachings of the Christian Church. Theses reflections are followed by practical suggestions not only for intercessors, but for those who accompany others in their spiritual journeys: soul friends, spiritual directors and companions.
