The Jesus Prayer with Bishop Simon Barrington-Ward

The Ancient Christian Prayer of the Desert Fathers has been used by the church for generations both as a meditative tool and as a group prayer in Christian communities, most notably developed in the Orthodox Church. Bishop Simon, a leading expert on the prayer, talks about the history of the prayer and his own discoveries which led him to write his first book. The film gives the viewer at home an opportunity at the end to join in praying The Jesus Prayer together.
