To pray is to be in conversation and relationship with God. However, too often, prayer becomes routinized, ritualized, or even non-existent in the course of our daily lives.  How do we revitalize and reconnect our life in prayer to the core of our being? How do we return to the joyful and rejuvenating experience of true connection to God in prayer?  Where do we find time? Does an Orthodox Christian pray outside of the Liturgy? Can an Orthodox Christian pray personal prayers apart from the prayer book? What does it mean to stand in silent prayer in God’s presence? This talk reviews the Orthodox Christian concept of prayer and provides practical suggestions to renew your life in prayer.
