94 - Prayer

Prayer According to the Orthodox Tradition
Fr. Thomas Hopko

This 13 part series was given to students at St. Vladimir's Seminary.  This series is very practical, powerful and expansive.  Fr. Thomas' generous use of Scripture, writings of the Church Fathers and his great sense of humor make this series both interesting and enjoyable.  Great for a 13 week study series with others.  You'll want to listen to these tapes over and over again.

Sound quality is fair to poor in spots.

HT-94-21     How To Pray
HT-94-22     How To Pray (continued)
    This two-tape set on prayer is a practical look at prayer.  This would be a good set to listen to instead of the 19 tape series above if you want a good introduction and basis for more study on prayer.  As always on any of Fr. Thomas' presentations, there a lots of questions and answers.

†Bishop KALLISTOS (Ware)

WK-94-01     Prayer of the Heart: "See Christ Everywhere"
    How can we enter into prayer of the heart?  How can we use the Jesus Prayer to build a deeper personal relationship with all persons and with all things?

WK-94-02     Prayer of the Heart: "Create Silence"
    True listening is waiting on God.  How am I to stop talking and truly listen?  †Bishop KALLISTOS describes various ways to actually use the Jesus Prayer.  He discusses the prayer rope, the speed of recitation, and gives practical advise on techniques, and attitudes.
