Prayer of the Imagination
​"Teach Us To Pray" | Episode 3

In Luke 11, the disciples say to Jesus, "Teach Us to Pray". In this video series on prayer, we hope to share with you many forms of prayer that you might try out and perhaps adopt into your own intentional prayer practice. Maybe you've always wanted to know more about the Ignatian Examen but didn't know where to start. Or maybe you have been praying the Daily Office for decades and are looking for something new! We hope that through this series you might discover a new spiritual practice or reignite an already familiar practice that brings you closer to God!

In Episode 3, Joslyn guides us through the Prayer of the Imagination. She invites us to use our imagination to dig deeper into the story of Jesus turning water into wine, so that we may encounter God on a more personal and intimate, level.​
