Christ Consciousness Prayer

Editorially reviewed • Educational content

Ways to approach prayer when exploring Christ consciousness, with room for different theological interpretations.

Prayer can function differently depending on your theology: worship, petition, confession, listening, contemplation or intentional reflection. A Christ-consciousness practice often emphasizes inward stillness and alignment with qualities associated with Christ.

A simple structure

Begin with gratitude. Name what you need help seeing clearly. Sit quietly. End by choosing a compassionate action rather than demanding a particular mystical experience.

Compare prayer and meditation or explore contemplative prayer.
