Faith Building Tool Spotlight #2: Hallow
Say your prayers!
The second faith building tool I want to highlight is Hallow. Hallow is a Catholic prayer app that has radically changed my life. You see, despite never doubting the truth of the Catholic faith as a child, teenager, or young adult, I never had much of a personal prayer life. I said grace before dinner. I attended Mass on Sunday. I even thought about the entire world through the lens of God (the most basic form of prayer and how we can follow Paul’s teaching to pray constantly).
But the type of prayer I am referring to is what I think is most traditionally thought of as prayer and that is a form of thanksgiving, petition, intercession, or adoration. I did not thank God as much as I should have for all the blessings in my life. I did not turn to God and ask him for what I needed or what someone else needed as often as I should. And I did not turn to God and tell him just how magnificent he is.
Hallow fixed all this or at least began making serious progress in developing a consistent and meaningful prayer life. Hallow is the #1 Catholic prayer app. It is loaded with great content from your no-brainer rosaries, scriptural readings, and reflections to saint spotlights, spiritual classic audiobooks, of contemporary worship music. Are you struggling with stress and anxiety? How about bad habits or chronic illness? Are you struggling with your personal relationships or grieving the loss of a loved one? Well, Hallow has a section of the app dedicated to prayers and assistance with all the mental health topics above.
In the end, Hallow has something for everyone and is built in a way that helps cultivate the formation of a daily prayer life by helping you set up a daily routine so that you can more easily turn your heart and mind to God. I recommend that if you are wanting to improve the depth or consistency of your prayer life that you give Hallow a chance, and you can do so for three months free with no automatic charge at the end by using the QR code below (will only work if you have never created an account or done a free trial). Now get to praying!
