As Orthodox Christians, we understand the saying that it's the way of the Christian life to fall down and get back up -- lather, rinse, repeat. Daily Prayer for Orthodox Christians is a manual of prayer from the heart of the Church -- based on the office of prayer and the Bible, with passages from Psalms, History, Prophets and the Hymnody of the Church, in easy-to-understand translation and an easy-to-use format. Create a rule of prayer that works for you -- to bring you into the presence of the Holy One day after day, moment after moment.
