Sounds True Original Prayer 8d

Neil Douglas-Klotz has been praised by sources ranging from The Catholic Times to Creation Spirituality magazine as one of today's most visionary new voices in the revival of Christianity's mystical roots. With Original Prayer, this gifted author and translator offers a welcome new work: a meditative journey into one of the most enduring and beloved cornerstones of the Christian faith ? the Lord's Prayer. Original Prayer begins by exploring the many rich layers of meaning enfolded within New Testament scriptures written in Aramaic, the language that Jesus and his disciples actually spoke. Through specific insights revealed within the Aramaic Lord's Prayer, listeners learn eight unique ?body prayers, ? an ancient Middle Eastern form of meditation that engages the entire body in the contemplation of scripture. This is the same devotional practice used by the early Christians to delve into the Gospels ? not as a scholarly exercise, but as a living, breathing experience of God.
