  • awesome!

    

  • Check out you tube "A Lamp in the Dark - The untold history of the bible" - enjoy. It is a full documentary.

  • To Father John D. Dreher, you have completely misunderstood Centering Prayer. Firts one must understand the Cloud of Unknowing, and very few secular Priest do. Just like the Dark Night, few secular Fathers have answers. The Carmelities do.

  • @laurian27453 The king James bible is missing 7 books that were in the original Torah that Jesus used. All other bibles are based off of the catholic bible. Jesus meant don't call your biological father father, but to rather think of him as a foster parent and of God as your true father. Catholic priests have the title of father because they represent the true father, God in heaven. Just because a form of prayer doesn't appear in the bible doesn't make it bad. God continues to teach! God Bless!

  • father do you have to pray regular at first before you start contemplating?

  • I wonder father have you ever had sex with a vibrator?

  • youtube - Ray Yungen contemplative prayer preview.

    Read "Faith Undone" by Roger Oakland.

    Blessings.

  • @fivecrownsful The bible tells us to follow the narrow path - the broadway leads to distruction - take heed, don't be deceived the bible says. These forms of spirituality are NOT of the God of the bible - the choice is yours - be blessed and steer clear. Blessings.

  • The bible says - call no man your Father! These practices of prayer are not biblical but mystical - don't even think about doing ANY of this stuff. Read the King James bible and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you to all truth. Blessings.

  • @mottledbrain I read that article, and from that it is clear that John D. Dreher is completely ignorant of what centering prayer even is. Not only that, he takes quotes out of context and horribly misinterprets them just so he can support his wounded little ego in his crusade against something he doesn't understand. Centering prayer is entirely Christian. The three catholic monks who developed it, developed it out of Christian texts. Centering prayer has no relation to Hinduism whatsoever.
