How did the maestro advise the young violinist?
There is a story of a young violinist who had an audition at Carnegie Hall. As she hurriedly exited the subway, she was momentarily disoriented. To her relief, she saw an old man with a violin under his arm and thought that surely he would know.
“Sir, can you tell me how to get to Carnegie Hall?” she asked.
“Practice,” he said, with a grin.
It’s the same way with Catholic spirituality – growing in faith is all about practice.
This collection by today’s most respected Catholic writers offers a compendium of these practices, traditional and contemporary, that can enable us to sustain and grow a vibrant spiritual life. This must-have volume will quickly become a trusted companion for an entire lifetime of engagement with the beauty and richness of the Catholic faith.
Colleen M. Griffith and Thomas H. Groome both teach at Boston College’s School of Theology and Ministry. Thomas H. Groome is also the bestselling author of many books including Will There Be Faith? and What Makes Us Catholic.
