## What is Behold?

Start every day by spending time with God in prayer. 
Behold helps Christians center their lives and minds on God through daily guided prayers that invite listeners to hear God’s word, and meditate on its meaning. 

BEHOLD HELPS YOU: 
- Pray Lectio Divina style: daily guided prayer with a passage of scripture read three times followed by silent reflection. 
- Connect to the global church, by incorporating prayers from a diverse range of modern and ancient Christian voices. 
- Pray intentionally, with the ability to set daily reminders, save your favorite prayers and reflections, and track your prayer habits,
- Focus on God and minimize screen time distractions, with a simple and attractive interface 
- Develop deeper and more consistent prayer habits 
- Connect to God through scripture and silence.  

For Christians, meditation is part of the spiritual practice of prayer. Prayer is key to personal transformation and connection with God, but speaking to God is not the only way to pray. Meditation is another way of praying by listening to and reflecting on scripture, to increase our knowledge of Christ. God is everywhere and is speaking to us in many ways: through nature, through other people, through the activity of the Holy Spirit, directly and, of course, through the scriptures. 

Christian meditation also benefits our physical and mental health. Meditation is a form of mindfulness—focusing on one thing without distraction, which has been shown to have lots of health benefits. Studies have shown that even 10-15 minutes of mindfulness can improve our brain function. It enhances our mental health and reduces stress. For religious people, studies have found that meditation that integrates religious practice is even more effective than general mindfulness practice. 

Center your mind with silence and scripture, helping you reduce stress, find peace with God, and strengthen your spiritual connection with the Lord and the bible. 

****Making time for prayer and meditation is hard. But Behold will help you deepen your prayer life, practice stillness before God, and meditate on scripture every day—all in 15 minutes or less.

### 5/5 — Essential

*2021-08-24, version 1611329630 (1.0.1)*

This is the way I begin my day. The choice of Scripture, the gorgeous, sonorous reading voice, the time for meditation —. all of these elements allow me to start the day in the best way: with God.

### 5/5 — A great way to start the day!!

*2021-08-24, version 1611329630 (1.0.1)*

Behold has become a vital part of my daily meditation time. 
I would recommend it to anyone looking for a daily devotion, prayer and/or biblical insight.

### 5/5 — Just what I’ve been looking for!

*2021-02-22, version 1611329630 (1.0.1)*

I’ve been looking for an app like this that offers guided prayer and meditation and I’ve finally found it with Behold! Their prayers help provide enough structure to keep your mind from wandering but also enough space to allow you to have meaningful personal time with God. Really loving it!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much! This is so encouraging because that's exactly what we hoped to offer people. I'm so glad you're loving it!

### 5/5 — Lovely app for meditation

*2021-01-27, version 1611329630 (1.0.1)*

The recordings for guided meditation are great - especially for someone like me, who is fairly new to the idea of meditating on Scripture and has trouble shutting out distractions and focusing. The app is also simple and easy to use - I appreciate the design.

**Developer response:** So glad you're finding the meditations helpful! That's the goal. Thanks for praying with us!

### 5/5 — Short invitations to listen to God

*2021-01-26, version 1611329630 (1.0.1)*

Behold is a unique app that emphasizes listening to God’s word and building in silence to develop meditation on the Scripture that was read. Each meditation is about 10 minutes long, which makes it a manageable amount of time to do one over a lunch break or in the evening. The repetition of the Scripture has helped me notice different words and phrases in a specific passage that I may not have otherwise. Ultimately, this app is a huge help in my desire to grow in my listening to God, and building in God’s word to my daily experience.

**Developer response:** Thank you! We really wanted the brevity of the meditations to make them more accessible to people, so we're so glad to hear that it's working for you.

### 5/5 — Peaceful, accesible, centering

*2021-01-21, version 1610719333 (1.0)*

Behold prayer has created a space where I can rest, find peace, and just listen to ancient, beautiful, and wise words. I love starting the day with meditative invitations to breathe and rest. The format of each recording is very calming and creates space to open my heart to listen and then receive whatever wisdom, images, or insight the words might provide. For anyone who wants to create space for scripture and prayer but isn’t sure how to start or is just looking for something new, this is a truly refreshing way to enjoy the word! I also love doing yoga while listening. Really wonderful, accesible format and great app!

**Developer response:** We're so glad to hear that the app has been beneficial for you! Creating space for scripture and finding rest and peace is at the center of our goals.

### 5/5 — Sustainable spiritual practice & personal transformation

*2021-01-20, version 1610719333 (1.0)*

Behold Prayer and the practice of meditation on scripture has had a profound impact on my sense of peace in a year or change, transition, and uncertainty. I love the way this app and the guided meditation helps me experience a heightened sense of Gods presence and voice. The beautiful audio recordings and reflection prompts help me process, and the experience of listening in silence has truly been a gift in the midst of a lot of noise from external consumeristic culture, and my own internal criticism. Thank you to the Behold Prayer team for making mediation in scripture so accessible and contemporary!

**Developer response:** So glad this has made meditation accessible for you - that's what we hope to do!
