Summary: "All the friends whom I have directed, who have shared their journey to God with me in the sixteen years since I was ordained a priest, have played a part in the writing of this book. So, too, have Mr. Segundiano Honorio, the secretary of San Jose Seminary, who cheerfully tackled the laborious task of deciphering my handwriting and typing the manuscript: also, two of my Jesuit brothers: Father Thomas O'Shaughnessy, whose careful reading eliminated many stylistic oddities and repetitions, and Father Bill Abbott, who kept my scriptural references honest and accurate and who often suggested apt references which I had not thought of; many of the San Jose diocesan seminarians, especially Ed Mercado and Willie Fab-ros, who, in their sharing of themselves and in their reading of the manuscript, have contributed immeasurably to my own understanding and my ability to explain the mystery of the "dry well"; and my own sister, Pidge James, who is still (as she was in Opening to God) my best and most constructive critic, despite the ocean now separating us. Two groups of friends served as willing "guinea pigs" for my airing of the ideas which were taking shape in this book, and contributed much by way of clarification and confirmation: the students in my course in Apostolic Prayer at Loyola School of Theology during the first semester of 1978; and the Ursuline Sisters who made a one-month "house of prayer" with me in Canberra, Australia, over Christmas of 1978." —Preface
