Solitude, compassion and community - walking in the footsteps of Jesus

The contemplative practice of Christian meditation has its foundation in the teachings and prayer life of Jesus.

Jesus frequently withdrew to solitary or deserted places to pray. The Gospel writers skillfully record a pattern of solitary prayer, engaged compassion, and the creation of community.

We don't need to find any special way of getting in touch with God. God wants to simplify us through the simplicity of silent prayer.
