The desire and spirit of prayer are a gift from God. A person who desires to pray stands in the presence of ...

That unusual juxtaposition formed the backdrop as Joel Marcus - a Jew by birth, a Christian by choice - took the pulpit at St. Mary's Cathedral in Glasgow, Scotland.

What is life to the full? Our souls long for a life that is full and flourishing, but so often it feels beyond our reach. Blinded by false rewards and temporary relief, we look to sources that promise happiness and wholeness. We attempt to fill our lives with more, increasing our pace and capacity, but accumulation doesn’t ever seem to satisfy. We see the circumstantial evidence that others might have found this sort of life, but we cannot seem to experience it for ourselves.

Trois principes si simples et qui pourtant façonnent toute notre vie chrétienne: écouter la voix de Dieu, lui parler par la prière et vivre l’Église avec son peuple.

Et surtout, ils nous permettent de vivre le plus beau cadeau de tous les temps: connaître Jésus et vivre une intimité profonde avec lui.
