Fr. Scott Traynor - Discerning Hearts Catholic Podcasts

Fr. Scott Traynor talks about how we have to do more than just talk about prayer. He discusses how we must "live" our prayer in the union of love within the heart of the Holy Trinity. That is the goal of Christian prayer. He goes on to describe the very nature of the Holy Trinity....the relationship of love between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

SP#1 The School of Prayer: Foundations for the New Evangelization

Fr. Scott Traynor begins this series on prayer by describing how Jesus Christ desires a deep personal relationship of the heart with each of us and how this is the true foundation for the New Evangelization. He discusses the adventure of the life of faith and the gifts the Father wishes to shower upon us in union with Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. He breaks open the reality of the indwelling Holy Spirit, who is the great teacher of prayer. Fr. Traynor encourages us to grow in union with Trinity through opening our hearts in prayer.

In Father Scott Traynor’s book, Blessed John Paul II’s memorable call to make of the parish a school of prayer takes on flesh and becomes concretely attainable. Those you read these faith-filled pages will find renewed desire to create such parishes and a clear road-map toward this goal.
