The Many Ways of Prayer in the Modern World

Prayer is our conversation with God, and there are countless ways to pray—some ancient, others adapted for modern life.

Here are a few ways to deepen your prayer:

• Lectio Divina: Slowly meditating on Scripture in four movements: read, reflect, respond, rest.

• The Rosary: A rhythmic, meditative form of prayer that leads us through the mysteries of Christ.

• Prayer journaling: Writing out thoughts, petitions, and gratitude to God.

• Centering prayer: A silent prayer of presence and trust in God’s nearness.

• Intercessory prayer: Praying for others with intention and love.

Whether whispered in traffic, written in a journal, or sung in community, prayer is always a homecoming.

“Pray without ceasing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
