Centering Prayer

Description

“God’s first word is silence.”
-Thomas Keating

Centering Prayer is a method of silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer, prayer in which we experience God's presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself. This method of prayer is both a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship. Centering Prayer is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer; rather it casts a new light and depth of meaning on them. Centering Prayer is an ancient method of Christian prayer adapted for modern times by Fathers Thomas Keating, William Meninger and Basil Pennington.

The Centering Prayer application will support your daily prayer practice commitment. Beautiful and peaceful, the app includes an adjustable timer, as well as opening and closing prayer options that you may read before and after your silent prayer time. An assortment of sounds and backgrounds allow you to choose the type of environment you want to create for your prayer time. Brief instructions for learning Centering Prayer are also included.

It is recommended you practice being in relationship with God through Centering Prayer twice a day for 20 minutes to begin with.

Centering Prayer

If this is your first or hundredth time doing centering prayer, you’ll find this easy to use app indispensable. It has a beautiful timer, some great reflective Scriptures and easy to follow guidelines.

Centering Prayer application is central to my drawing closer to God

Using this application I'm developing a deeper sense of God's presence in all things- Grace & Peace

Great tool

I use this App everyday. It's great! If you want to improve it could you change the 3 gongs to have the first one the quietest so that it is a gentler entry back to the thinking noisy world. I've recommended the app to others who follow the path of Christian meditation. Thank you indeed!!

Beginning

Thank you for this simple tool. As a beginner, I find it most useful and not distracting. May it benefit many.

Excellent

No frills, does what it says on the packet, which is exactly what I wanted. Easy to navigate, doesn't seem to have any annoying "features". Great job

Thank you for this wonderful app to be closer to God

This app helps me in my commitment to devote time to God. I like the timer which keeps track on the process. The opening & closing prayers inspires me to upkeep this great habit which I am forming. Thank you... Thank you.
