The Jesus Prayer

We are approaching the first Sunday in the Lenten Triodion, when we remember the story of the Publican and the Pharisee. The Jesus Prayer is a central part of the account. Here is a video interview of (Church of England) Bishop Simon Barrington-Ward on practicing the presence of Christ, through devotional use of the Prayer.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy upon us.
