The Practices

Quiet practices, explained simply.

Short guides to the old practices of prayer, Scripture, and stillness — written to be useful whether or not you ever open our app.

---

• Breath prayer

  A prayer short enough to pray in one breath — the oldest way back to stillness.

• Lectio divina

  Reading a few verses slowly, four times over, until the words read you back.

• A rule of life

  Not a schedule to fail at. A trellis — something for a growing thing to climb.

• Abiding in Christ

  What John 15 actually asks of you, and what it doesn’t.
