"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me."

This very simple prayer was developed in the deserts of Egypt and Palestine during the early centuries of Christian faith, and has been practiced in the Eastern Orthodox Church ever since. It is a prayer inspired by St. Paul's exhortation to "pray constantly" (1 Thessalonians 5:17), and its purpose is to tune one's inner attention to the presence of the Lord. This series of "little books" is designed to enable you to grasp the meaning of one ancient method of Christian prayer in a relatively short amount of time.

In Praying the Jesus Prayer, one of today's most respected voices on Orthodoxy in America introduces you to:

• The history and meaning of this popular but rarely understood method of talking to God

• What it means to really pray with both heart and mind

• How to get started incorporating the Jesus Prayer into your life.
