ILIA DELIO, O.S.F., is a Franciscan sister. She is associate professor of ecclesiastical history, director of Franciscan Studies and academic coordinator of spirituality studies at the Washington Theological Union in Washington, D.C.

"This is a book on Franciscan prayer written by a theologian who strives to define more clearly the path of Franciscan prayer and as one who seeks God in a complex world. It is my belief that an understanding of prayer in the Franciscan tradition, that is the spirituality of prayer, can offer new vitality to Christian life today because it is a path of relationship with God that strives to live in the fullness of the Incarnation."
