- Notes
- Be Still and Know was first published by Fount Paperbacks, London, in 1982, and Seabury Press, new York, in 1983 -- verso of t.-p.
- "This book has a single theme, but its two parts are difference in form. The first is a study of the Prayer of Jesus and the understanding of prayer in St. Paul, St. John and the Letter to the Hebrews as well as in the story of the Transfiguration. The second part is more directly pastoral in form, and deals with some of the practical aspects of Christian praying, with a digression on some lessons from the English Mystics of the fourteenth century and the Spanish Mystics of the sixteenth, in the belief that they speak to our contemporary world" -- Preface.

- "Few of us are confident that we know how to pray as we ought. .... In recent decades many Christians have found in centering prayer one way to bring their sighing hearts to God. In this article I will use my own search for a deeper prayer life to explore the centering prayer movement, to answer questions about the method, and to suggest support when keeping the discipline becomes difficult" (p. 2).
