Pop-Up Prayer hosted by Joe Paprocki

In this episode of Pop-Up Prayer, Lillie Rodgers talks about recognizing that, in prayer, we don’t have to work at ascending a ladder to reach God, since God has “descended” to be with us in the Incarnation. Lillie, who appears in this video with her two-year-old daughter Grace, is Coordinator of Pastoral Ministry at St. Paul’s Newman Center at the University of Wyoming.

Be sure to check out the many resources on prayer and many excellent books on the topic of prayer available from Loyola Press.
