In times of crisis, we often revert almost exclusively to intercessory prayer: "God, save me from . . . " or "God please help me with . . ." ALL valid prayers for sure! But what about "contemplative prayer"? Where does this fit into our daily prayer life as Christians? And why is it so critical in critical times?

Jesus slept in the boat among the Apostles during the storm that frightened them to death. How can we be like Jesus? Is Jesus in our boat and what does that look like?

Dr. Lilles is a professor of Spiritual Theology, academic dean, blogger, speaker and gifted teacher of contemplative spirituality . . . and has an important message for all of us.
