Simple Ways to Make Daily Prayer a Habit (with Anna Mitchell)

Simple Ways to Make Daily Prayer a Habit (with Anna Mitchell)

Danielle Bean

Happy Easter! He is risen!

Anna Mitchell, host of the Son Rise Morning Show on Sacred Heart Radio, joins me to talk about daily prayer. Anna shares an innovative idea for making a habit of daily prayer -- an audio recording of simple prayers she created with her co-host Matt Swaim. You can get the free download of their prayer recording here on Soundcloud.

We don't have to have it all together when we approach the Lord in prayer, he receives us just as we are.

At the end of today's show, I share an email from Marie who offers a suggestion for those of us who want to learn and pray more litanies. Here is the weekly schedule she uses:

Sunday: Litany of Trust

Monday: Litany of Joy

Tuesday: Litany of Humility

Wednesday: Litany of St. Joseph

Thursday: Litany of Faith

Friday: Litany of Love

Saturday: Litany of Blessed Mother Mary

My newest book is one that I wrote with Dan, the Manual for Marriage, a beautiful resource for every couple. In it, Dan and I share reflective essays on marriage and family life, but it also features a large collection of prayers, Scripture passages, hymns, and stories from the saints that will encourage and support you in your married relationship.

I have received so much feedback from all of you about my newest book and the first chapter that I shared with you at the end of episode 210. Giving Thanks and Letting Go: Reflections on the Gift of Motherhood is a book in which I share from my heart about the very real changes, challenges, triumphs, and joys of being a mom in an “emptying nest.” You can read that sample chapter at Ave Maria Press.
