There is a restlessness that marks our generation — a deep, unspoken longing beneath the schedules, the noise, and the self-imposed pace of modern life. Many Christians feel it every day: the subtle disconnect between their faith and their lived experience, the hunger for a deeper intimacy with God that everyday distractions seem determined to smother.
For decades, Ken McCann watched this longing unfold in the lives of ordinary believers. As a long-time lay leader in a small Vineyard Christian church in rural central Illinois, he has walked alongside people from all seasons of life — young parents overwhelmed by responsibility, older adults navigating transition, men searching for purpose, and everyday believers simply trying to sustain a meaningful prayer life.
He knew their struggle because he shared it.
In the midst of family life, church responsibilities, and his own spiritual hunger, Ken began to realize that the deeper communion Jesus promised was not found through striving but through yielding — through creating space, embracing silence, and learning to respond to what he calls the gentle, persistent, steady invitation of God: His constant call.
A Journey That Became a Book
What began as a personal pursuit soon grew into a communal one. Ken’s church embarked on a collective journey to rediscover contemplative prayer — not as a rigid technique, but as a lifestyle of attentive intimacy with God. They studied Scripture. They listened to the testimonies of earlier generations of believers. They practiced stillness, solitude, and interior silence. They stumbled and learned. They grew.
And in that journey, something beautiful happened: ordinary men and women began experiencing God in transformative ways. Hearts softened. Lives slowed. Relationships deepened. Prayer shifted from obligation to encounter.
His Constant Call: A Primer on Contemplative Prayer was born out of that lived experience — a humble offering to believers everywhere who long to hear God again in the quiet.
A Guide to Returning to the Ancient Paths
This book is not academic or abstract. It is warm, practical, and deeply rooted in real life. Ken introduces readers to:
- the ancient paths and traditions of contemplative prayer
- the “secret place” where God meets His people
- the value of solitude in a world addicted to noise
- how interior silence prepares the heart for God’s presence
- postures that open the soul to receive
- the process of nurturing a lasting, life-giving prayer life
Ken writes as a guide, not a lecturer — someone who has walked the journey, made the mistakes, felt the breakthroughs, and witnessed transformation firsthand in his community.
Wisdom from the Great Tradition
Well-respected author and minister John Crowder affirms the power of this work:
“In a world of noise that penetrates us from without and within, divine silence is the most vital spiritual praxis we must recover. Contemplation is the truest vocation of our humanity… In this rich volume, Ken McCann helps reintroduce us to contemplative practice, offering valuable, accessible insights to help along the way.”
A Book for the Hungry, the Weary, and the Searching
Whether you are newly exploring contemplative prayer or longing to return to it, whether your spirit feels dry or deeply stirred, Ken’s message remains the same:
God is already calling. He always has been. And He is inviting you back into communion with Him.
This book is your gentle companion in answering that call.
