Welcome to Catholic:Under The Hood podcast

Journey with me in an adventure through the Catholic faith and the perils of modern technology.

I'm here at Franciscan University and will be talking about issues of spirituality, theology and perhaps even the Chicago Cubs.

Praying the Jesus Prayer

In the first episode, I start testing out all this technology and talk a bit about the Jesus Prayer.

The Jesus Prayer is an ancient Eastern Christian prayer used to center our attention upon the Saving Lord and to fulfill the mandate of the New Testament that we pray always. You can find more information about the Jesus Prayer in the following books:




Irenee Hausherr's "The Name of Jesus"
"The Pilgrim's Tale" and "The Way of a Pilgrim"

You can order your own chotki [Eastern prayer rope] via The Icon and Book Service.

The opening and closing instrumental of Lasst Uns Erfruen is thanks to Lea Nicholson.
