The book is endorsed by Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers of EWTN along with many others.
"'Lord, Teach Us to Pray' is a wonderful compilation of reflections on prayer from one of the greatest religious figures of the twentieth century. Archbishop Sheen’s soul-stirring meditations during Eucharistic Adoration and his beautiful insights on Christ’s last words from the Cross provide spiritual food that will nourish and strengthen your personal prayer. Venerable Fulton Sheen plants the seeds of wisdom in the rich soil of human experience that, when watered by the gifts of the Holy Spirit in an open heart, will undoubtedly bring forth fruits of sacred joy in the life of the reader. An absolute must-read!"
