The manner in which the text is performed, beautifully assists the listener in understanding the meaning of the divinely inspired words within their context. The background music and sound effects helps the listener to imagine the setting of each particular text of the Holy Bible. I am happy to give my wholehearted endorsement to the audio New Testament.” --Cardinal Raymond L. Burke, Perfect of the Apostolic Signature of the Holy See “This is the way Scripture is supposed to sound. Revealing and passionate performances from world class actors, a lyrical translation, and sound effects that put you in the middle of the action. Whether you’ve read the Bible a hundred times or are making the first contact, this is an experience you will not forget and one you will want to repeat often.” --Laura Ingraham, Radio Talk Show Host, New York Times Bestselling Author “We learn by hearing as well as reading. Those who desire to become true disciples of Jesus will want to learn from His words in every way. For anyone interested in beginning or continuing their adventure of faith, I highly recommend this faithful and powerful presentation of the Word of God.” --The Most Reverend Charles Chaput, Archbishop of Philadelphia, PA

The Jesus Prayer is one of the oldest and most profound forms of Christian prayer — Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner — prayed continuously, breath by breath, until it becomes as natural as breathing itself. This app exists for one purpose: to help you build a daily rule of the Jesus Prayer and keep it. You begin with thirty seconds. That's enough. Pray once, every day, and your rule grows — gently, naturally — as your capacity deepens. Miss a day, and the app responds with the same mercy the prayer itself asks for. This app is not your prayer life. It is its bedrock — the quiet discipline beneath your liturgy, your Psalter, your fasting, and all else. The ultimate aim is not to pray at a scheduled time, but to become a person who prays without ceasing. Features: A simple, distraction-free prayer screen with a breathing animation and optional timer A daily rule that grows after seven consecutive days of faithful prayer Gentle reminders at the canonical hours or any custom time you choose A brief introduction to the tradition and theology of the Jesus Prayer A word by word breakdown including Greek and Hebrew references The Jesus Prayer has been prayed for sixteen centuries. This app asks only that you pray it once today.
