How To Pray Class 1 (of 3)
This 1st of a 3 part class is based on a pet project of mine that blends together the Church's rich tradition of mental prayer (meditation) with acting methodologies to bring the scripture and your prayer to life. I hope it helps you contemplate, imagine and come closer to the Lord (and, hopefully, makes it that prayer will never be boring again).
