Episode 14 Why Prayer Matters – Why it Matters: An Exploration of Faith with Archbishop George Lucas
In this episode with Archbishop Lucas we begin the conversation on why prayer matters?
From the Catechism of the Catholic Church:
For me, prayer is a surge of the heart; it is a simple look turned toward heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love, embracing both trial and joy. –
St. Thérèse of Lisieux, Manuscrits autobiographiques, C 25r.

From Pope Benedict XVI, Wednesday Audience, May 11, 2011
Dear brothers and sisters, we learn to stay more in front of God, God who has revealed himself in Jesus Christ, we learn to recognize in the silence, deep within ourselves, the voice that calls us and leads us to the depths of our existence , the source of life, the source of salvation for us to go beyond the limit of our lives and open ourselves to the extent of God, our relationship with Him who is Infinite Love.
Dear brothers and sisters, let us learn to pause longer before God, who revealed himself in Jesus Christ, let us learn to recognize in silence, in our own hearts, his voice that calls us and leads us back to the depths of our existence, to the source of life, to the source of salvation, to enable us to go beyond the limitations of our life and to open ourselves to God’s dimension, to the relationship with him, which is Infinite Love.
