Pray As You Go

August 21st, 2008 · 1 Comment

I haven’t been much of a consumer of podcasts. Usually I’ll load a series onto my iPod and listen for a bit, and never finish an entire episode. Most of my listening so far has amounted to business or productivity-oriented podcasts. Some are nicely produced, some not so much. Regardless, I haven’t really found a podcast that can hold my interest. Until now.

The Pray-As-You-Go podcast (iTunes) is a very nicely produced series made by British Jesuits that focuses on a daily discipline of contemplative prayer. Each episode is about 10 minutes long, and follows a fixed format. The podcast format combines music and the spoken word to guide you into a mental stance of prayerful reflection and contemplation.

If you sometimes have difficulty with prayer longer than 60 seconds, you might try this out. It’s a really wonderful podcast, and I highly recommend it.

    I agree Bren. I have been using this podcast as part of my morning routine/commute for a few years now. It has been a great part of my prayer time.
