For thousands of years, the people of Jehovah have come to Him throughout the day to praise Him, confess sin and cry out on behalf of others and themselves. In the life of the early church prayers consisted of almost the same elements as the Jewish customary times of prayer: a recital or chanting of the Psalms, the reading of the Old Testament, to which was soon added the reading of the Gospels, Acts, and Epistles, and at times the singing of canticles (songs), composed or improvised. And of course throughout the life of higher ecclesiastical forms of Church (Roman, Anglican, Lutheran, etc…), fixed-hour prayer was a long held, deeply integral part of personal and communal spiritual practices.

But something has been lost in our technological and cultural evolution; a grounding in the wider, deeper streams of the Community of Yahweh and historical practices has been forsaken. As we move into sleeker forms of Church and more technologically savvy worship environments, a tethering to our deep historic past continues to fray. As society has become multi-tasked and cluttered, time for and commitment to spiritual disciplines has wanned.

This space is dedicated to recapturing ancient fixed-hour prayer for the 21st century and meant to be an oasis in the midst of your chaotic day. For each day of the week, three amended “offices” are designed to provide simple, yet meaningful sessions of personal prayer that are accessible anywhere in the world. To begin, click on the “start” button in the above header. Then simply select your day, choose the time of day and enjoy a time of personal fellowship, praise, and prayer with your Creator and Restorer.
