    Honest Question: How do I pray?

    This helps a lot, thank you so much. So it's a little like meditation? You take your time and calm yourself. Good to know. When I think about trying to pray, i get a little nervous. It's a huge step for me.

    Honest Question: How do I pray?

    Thank you, for sharing your experience. The personal stories of the people here are helping me a lot to understand faith, so far more than the most psalms and bible verses do (even tho I know that they are important too). I understand now, that the connection to god is something very personal.

    Honest Question: How do I pray?

    Thank you, I like the idea of a personal prayer. But for beginners the"Our Father" should be right. It's a common prayer in Germany, too. It's called the "Vater unser" here.

    Honest Question: How do I pray?

    I like the chess comparison :D Praising him for the rising sun makes a lot of sense to me and I will keep that in mind. For me, the sun is a "touchable" symbol of the cosmic power that gave us life and the first step to a connection to god.

    Thank you a lot, I have to read that again in a calm moment but I think I get the point. The last point TOJ #37 is very important for me. When I feel ready, I will look for the Hermeneutics thread. I appreciate it.

    Honest Question: How do I pray?

    I am not quite sure about my faith yet but I am trying. While reading about bible and Jesus I asked myself, how do I even pray?

    Scripture Art and Various Creative Conceptions Born of Love

    Hi, Magenta. So I watched the first two videos of Alpha Course, and it was quite interesting.

I then watched - just to see another point of view - a video...
