Description
PrayNow is the daily prayer app that places the Scriptures at the center of daily meditation and prayer.
"Pray without ceasing." (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
Daily prayer should be central to what we do as Christians. Yet it is so easy for the pressures and stresses of daily life to crowd out the time for meaningful prayer.
PrayNow is designed to meet the needs of the Christian who wishes to follow a disciplined order of daily prayer centered in the Scriptures and to use the rich resources of the church’s ancient daily orders of prayers with writings from the Church Fathers.
Pray Now provides you with the following:
• Complete texts for each day: - A reading from the Psalms - An Old Testament reading - A New Testament reading - A selection from a writing by a church father - A hymn stanza - A prayer for the day • Complete orders for daily prayer: - Matins - Vespers - Compline - Morning - Noon - Early Evening - Close of Day • Features the feasts, festivals, and commemorations of the Christian Church Year • The full text of the Psalms is available with, or without, chant notation • A full collection of prayers for the days of the week and for various aspects of your life in Christ
Technical Features: - Full texts for every day appear automatically according to the calendar - Dynamic calendar allows you to display text for any day - Choose between five different fonts - Fully scalable font size - Night reading mode - Bookmarking capabilities - Add, View, and Edit notes on each day's readings - Insert the day's readings into any of the above orders for daily prayer

Pray Now ROCKS I just got an Android tablet (Lenovo A2109A with Android 4.1.1)). I asked Paul McCain of CPH if this was similar to Treasury of Daily Prayer. I've been using Treasury since it was printed, but it's a big book to haul around on vacation. Yes, this has the same content -- same OT, NT readings and articles from church fathers, both Lutheran and other catholic fathers. It contains about 1/3 of the OT and almost all the NT. It will put the daily readings into Matins, Vespers, Compline, and the short orders of daily prayer from LSB pg 295-298. It also contains prayers for each day of the week and the Litany (and probably other stuff I haven't discovered yet). You don't have to be Lutheran to get a lot out of this. I do wish that the orders of Matins and Vespers would have an option to automatically plug in seasonal antiphon and responsory from the Altar Book, but I still give it 5 stars. Downgrading to 4 stars because it doesn't call up the right stuff for saints during lent/easter. CPH looked at and said it must be my android version.
