When we seek God's face,
we find God's grace. What does it mean to have intimacy with God? Why do so many of us avoid this intimacy at all costs? What examples from Scripture can guide us in developing a close, prayerful relationship with God? In Seek My Face, William A. Barry, SJ, provides thoughtful and easy-to-understand answers that help us draw closer to God and grasp the surprising breadth of ways in which we and God can become good friends.
Throughout the book, Fr. Barry introduces situations and personalities from both the Old and New Testaments to show us various ways in which people in the Bible expressed their friendship with God. Abraham, Moses, the psalmist, Peter, Jesus--these individuals and more help us see the many different ways we, too, can interact intimately and honestly with God. In his warm and gentle way, Fr. Barry turns us away from our ambivalence or even fear of a relationship with God and toward a desire to seek God's loving face--at all times and in all ways.

William A. Barry, SJ, is a veteran spiritual director who is currently serving as tertian director for the New England Province of the Society of Jesus. He has taught at the Weston Jesuit School of Theology and at Boston College. His many works include A Friendship Like No Other, God's Passionate Desire, and Here's My Heart, Here's My Hand (Loyola Press).
