Father Jonathan Morris is a well-known Catholic priest, author, contributor for Fox News, and radio personality at Sirius XM, whose books have helped many people understand better how God works to bring us hope and healing in our pain and suffering (The Promise) and how the gospel is really the best self-help advice you will ever find for discovering deep happiness (God Wants You Happy).
In The Way of Serenity, Morris focuses on one of the most powerful prayers used today, though often overlooked in the church: The Serenity Prayer. Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference. This prayer has become a centerpiece to those going through addiction recovery programs like Alcoholics Anonymous, discovering a rich spiritual resource for being restored to health and wholeness. Morris believes everyone could benefit from this spiritual treasure and so goes phrase by phrase to show what wisdom and spiritual help become available by praying and practicing the wisdom this prayer contains.
Morris includes moving narratives, historical anecdotes, and biblical passages to demonstrate the healing power of this prayer and why it promises all of us the hope of living better, richer lives.
