Join us as we study the hundreds of prayers that are found in the Jewish and Christian scriptures. These prayers are rich and diverse, and full of possibilities to enrich our own prayers. We explore at the background, meaning, and application for each prayer.
We offer a mix of free and premium content through articles, audio, books, and book reviews.
