Do you know how to "pray without ceasing," "pray in the Spirit" (as opposed to ego-driven prayer), "walk in the Spirit," and "be led by the Spirit" (all Pauline expressions)? The best way to master all these advanced forms of prayerful living is through the mastery of contemplative prayer. For an introduction, please watch Father Richard Rohr's brief explanation in this video.

Father Rohr, a Franciscan priest, reports that his books on prayer are most popular with young evangelical pastors. My very bright evangelical sister-in-law absolutely adores Rohr's writing.

Is it based on resting prayerfully on the finished work of Christ? John 19.30; Hebrews 10.
