Andrew Prevot - What is the Relationship Between Everyday Theology and Ordinary Prayer?
Show Notes

How does prayer help us integrate our experiences of God with our efforts to understand God? How can we think and talk about prayer in a way that captures its rich diversity? How does contemplating God help us resist the constrictions the world puts on us? And how can thinking prayer help us bring others before God?

In today’s show we will be talking to Professor Andrew Prevot. Andrew is Associate Professor in the Theology Department at Boston College. He has written extensively on the relationship between prayer and theology, and his new book on mysticism and the ordinary life is appearing in Spring 2023.
