About this ebook
Metanoia: A Catholic Book Series, Book Number Two: Prayer and the Tingling Grace is the author’s second publication in a series of Catholic books. In Prayer and the Tingling Grace, the author recounts his experience with a sensible consolation of actual grace that he calls the tingling grace. The tingling grace is a “grace of prayer,” according to one of the author’s past confessors, a Carmelite priest. As such, it is oftentimes experienced by novice monks, novice nuns, and young seminarians at the outset of their mystical journeys of sensible consolation, dark night of the soul, and contemplative union with God. However, according to the Carmelite priest, about five percent of lay Catholics also experience this sensible grace of prayer in their everyday lives. In this book, the author sets forth his experience with and understanding of the tingling grace. According to him, the tingling grace is as an actual grace of sensible consolation given by God to encourage the performance of salvific and salutary acts, such as vocal and mental prayer, frequenting the sacraments, spiritual reading, works of mercy, and the discernment of one's vocation in Christ. In addition, he contends that the tingling grace is also an inherited remnant of the preternatural gifts of Adam before The Fall. He is publishing the book to testify and/or witness to the participation in and guidance of God (i.e., The Good Shepherd) in the spiritual journeys of lay, religious, and clerical Catholics. Finally, this book is part of the author’s lay apostolate of Roman Catholic witness, as well as the author’s response to and promotion of the Church’s “universal call to holiness” (Lumen Gentium) and the “new evangelization” (Novo Millenio Ineunte), in the electronically and globally connected virtual world of the Internet. All of his books are also available in the Amazon Kindle Store, worldwide.
