“Vinny Flynn has done it again! With his fun, accessible, and faith-filled style, he gives us yet another key to unlocking the mystery of Christ’s Eucharistic love. This time, he shares the secrets to “keeping it real” before the Lord’s Real Presence. This book is more than just another devotional; it actually teaches us how to pray, and it does so in a way that’s holy, humorous, and human. Enjoy the book. Enjoy the Lord.”

“21 Ways to Worship is brilliant! An adoration chapel is the ultimate classroom of silence — there you will find, peace, clarity, and the friendship of a lifetime!”

“The Church teaches that adoration is an extension of Mass, but many people are unsure about what to do once they enter the adoration chapel. Vinny Flynn offers a “how to” book for Eucharistic adoration, with many practical and simple spiritual exercises. His suggestions will help people through a variety of stages and personal moods during adoration, always with the double goal of deepening one’s personal relationship with Jesus Christ and maintaining personal authenticity in the relationship. He integrates a focus on Jesus Christ with a Trinitarian theology and with an important Marian component. His use of familiar Biblical images helps the one praying to vividly grasp the task of adoration and remain focused. The reader will return to this book many times in order to squeeze all the spiritual juice out of it.”

“How do we worship God? Scripture constantly reminds us to adore Him, but how? Help is on the way. 21 Ways to Worship opens Scripture and the rich tradition of the Church to reveal the secrets to profound and meaningful worship of God. This book not only provides the why but also the how.”

“You’re in for a treat! Author, Vinny Flynn takes us by the hand and guides us towards the Blessed Sacrament. ‘Don’t be afraid, come as you are,’ he seems to say, as he gently explains how to bare our souls to be truly present to Our Eucharistic Lord. You’ll surely be motivated by the author’s enthusiasm! This is a terrific book — a real gem —a brilliant tool to help deepen our prayer lives.”

“21 Ways to Worship is a delightful, practical, and profound read — a much-needed gift for the Church! Though I have been a daily worshiper of the Blessed Sacrament for twenty-two years, I learned new ways to deepen my holy hour. This book will bless every reader in a unique and personal way.

“I became so absorbed in reading 21 Ways of Worship that I had to finish it before retiring for the evening. It is an excellent book, not only for beginners, but for the more proficient as well. It has just the right balance of the informal, low-key approach with the traditional renditions of Scripture, tradition and doctrinal definitions. The author’s personal conviction and profound grasp of the subject comes through without any
sense of self-promotion. Congratulations on a work well done!”

“Many adoration chapels have small libraries where reading material is made available for those who come to worship and adore Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Vinny Flynn’s latest book 21 Ways to Worship deserves a spot on all those sacred shelves! It offers fresh insights into how to spend time with Jesus, and will greatly increase the reader’s love for our Eucharistic Lord.”

From journaling and surrender to visualization and the role of Mary, this short, easy read is a delight for those who, like me, need a little help in front of the Eucharist!
