I was going to link a ton of prayer books to buy, but there's so many, I couldn't decide!
Ever wonder what the differences between prayer books are? Well, hopefully I can help you with that...

YES! Again, thank you so much for addressing my question in this video. It's perfect. Such a great comparison of each book's roadmap. This makes so much sense to me.

Love this review of different prayer books!!🙂👍 I have and used frequently the prayer books reviewed in this video, but always hoped and prayed for a unified prayerbook that could be used across the jurisdictions!! Remembering the old saying, the family that prays together, stays together!!☦🙏

Thank you for the introduction of Prayer Books for a person raised as a Presbyterian with no experience with Prayer Books. It was full of very useful facts. Thanks for the video (from one with one and one-third legs).

With being a bit older when I was received into the church, the Ancient Faith prayer book was the most accessible for someone who spent nearly 50 years speaking English as my native language. After a couple of years, I have been looking to add to my prayer life. The trouble I am having is that many of the prayer books out there don't use the best English. They have English words, but the words are not arranged in a way as a native English speaker would use them. In addition, the fact that none of them even bother to use the same translation of Psalms and other prayers that have already been translated. I recently purchased the Anthologion, but I find myself grabbing my HTM psalter or my Ancient Faith prayer book because the translation is so very different that I get lost in the prayer, but it is still a wonderful prayer book. I have found myself looking more at Western Rite prayer books because the English is much more consistent and accessible to native English speakers. Anyway, thank you Raf for another great video on prayer be books.

It just takes some getting used to. If you can use the HTM Psalter you can use anything, and I’m not referring to their “Elizabethan” English, but their barely English word order. Pray what works for you.

I started on the Jordanville. I have tried other ones. But I always come back to it. And I’m very attached to my original even though the binding isn’t as well done. I bought the updated version with the better binding but ended up just heavily taping up my old one and continuing to use it. I can’t undo my emotional attachment to it. Its frustrating because the St Tikhons book is more beautiful but it just doesn’t stay in my heart like the Jordanville language does. I also have the Greek synekdemos when I feel like saying a few prayers i have learned in Greek.

Thank you very much for the information! I have perhaps a silly question, what is a prayer rule, and what advice would you have for compiling one? The way I understand it a prayer rule would be the prayers with you fully integrate into your prayer routine. If that’s the case, and it’s a good idea to do as you alluded to in the video and draw from multiple prayer books for your rule, then what’s the best way to document where they all are? Maybe I should create a word document and sequence, and add things that I would like to use regularly? Grateful for any direction, thanks guys.

I have a quick question on prayer. If you're married, is it better to pray together in the morning/evening prayers? If so, should we just pray every other part? Also, if we do pray together, would our prayers alone be the Jesus prayer? What is family prayer vs personal prayer - I suppose that's my main question. I know you're super busy! I really appreciate you. We are newly Orthodox (chriamated 22 November last year!) and still have our training wheels on, it feels like! Your channel is such a blessing!

Hi Zack I’m not sure there is a firm rule for families. We pray the morning prayers as a family out of the kids prayer book by Potamitis Publishing- it’s very good and the kids love the pictures. Maybe Raph could do a review on children prayer books? It takes us 5-10 min. Hoping to work up to evening prayers too.

@@MrCshowbread how do you find so much time for prayer? How early do you wake up? That sounds like at least 1 hour of prayer in the morning and close to an hour of prayer at night? If you include how long it takes to get ready in the morning including breakfast, and how long it takes to get ready for sleep etc…that’s basically 2 hours each morning and 2 hours each night. You would have to start extremely early and go to bed extremely early? I tend to work early until 10-12pm…I feel daunted reading your message. But also inspired and hope I can get there…

Just as a curiosity, since I’m a Roman Catholic new to the Byzantine Rite, when would a cleric/monk say these morning/evening prayers or would they say them at all? Are these meant to be a truncated form of the Hours for the laity?

Unpopular opinion- Use the prayer book / rule suggested by your father confessor and or spiritual father. It allows continuity and a unified prayer with those you worship with. It's close to prelest to just use whatever one you "feel" like. All prayer especially for new converts need to be a prescribed rule.

How is it prelest to use any of the authentic and apostolic prayers of the canonical Church? Yeah, maybe if you went to a GOARCH parish to look down on them and read a ROCOR prayer book to feel more spiritual, that’s obviously prelest, but to openly generalize that seems a bit bizarre. Is it prelest for Western Rite Orthodox to read Byzantine style prayers? Of course not. It’s often (rightly) said that unity does not equal uniformity. It also doesn’t require compartmentalization between different jurisdictions and parishes. The Church is Catholic.

Did you get a copy of The Saint Theodore Prayer Book.. from the AntiochianOrthodox Archdiocese ofthe British Isles and Ireland ? I got a copy in York ,England when the local government or some one appeared to under a strange leadership who wanted to remove a statue to Constantine . (The Roman military commander who succeeded his father there He ended the presecution of Christians and founded Constantinople. ) The Antiochians still appear to be present in York in spite of the EU . Brexit has happened of course since then.
