What does it mean to "pray continually"? John Mark explores Paul's command to pray without ceasing and introduces the ancient practice of fixed-hour prayer: pausing multiple times throughout the day to reorient your heart and mind toward God. He shows us how prayer is less about getting God to do something and more about moving through all of life in joyful, grateful relationship with Him.
