"Mindfulness as Centering Prayer" - Reclaimed Treasures, Part 1

This sermon started a new series looking at the biblical connections to contemporary lifestyle hacks. Today we begin by exploring how the popular practice of mindfulness connects to Christian prayer traditions, by looking to Jesus' teaching about prayer in Matthew 6:5-13. For those who have trouble praying, the good news is that prayer is about quanity of words, but about the quality of presence. Bottom line: Prayer is about availability, not verbosity. From this sermon: The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer. The Screwtape Letters by CS Lewis.
