What better way to begin the morning than with prayer? On this particular morning, I had the pleasure of discussing prayer as well — this time with the Voice of Islam UK on their live radio programme, The Breakfast Show.

You can hear my segment from 1hr 04min to 1hr 19min in the SoundCloud player below. For more on the theology, philosophy, and psychology of prayer, check out:

• Karl Rahner S.J., The Need and Blessing of Prayer, prayer is ‘opening the heart to God’
• Saint Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae I-II, 94, 2, on the natural good of religion
• Tyler J. VanderWeele, ‘Religious Communities and Human Flourishing’, on prayer’s health benefits

Many thanks again to The Breakfast Show for the kind invitation. Having spoken on the show twice now, I can genuinely say that it’s always a pleasure discussing Faith with the Voice of Islam UK.
