- Hallow: Catholic Meditation
Hallow is a Catholic app with content developed by experienced Catholic theologians and reviewed by senior leaders within the Church (e.g., PhDs, professors, bishops, authors) based on content from the Bible. While it can be a beautiful app for Catholic men and Catholic women, it is meant as a resource for people of all faiths and religions.
What you get:
Hallow’s intuitive and personalised experience begins with a nine-day intro that guides you through three different methods of prayer. After this, it’s up to you to choose from the collection of over 500 sessions:
- Daily prayer: Pray daily across methods including Lectio Divina (on the Daily Gospel), the rosary, spiritual writing and the Examen
- Praylists: Sessions centered on one particular theme, e.g., joy, humility, making decisions, calm, letting go
- Challenges: Prayers usually focused on rediscovering the beauty within prayers like the Our Father, Stations of the Cross, Psalms and Saints
- Community: Prayers with a set schedule to pray along with the rest of the Hallow community, such as the #pray40 Lenten Challenge, which begins on Ash Wednesday and continues throughout all of Lent
- Sleep: Prayers designed specifically to help you prepare to sleep, including Night Prayer from Liturgy of the Hours/Divine Office, Catholic Biblestories, and nightly Examens
- Exodus 90
Leaving boyhood behind so you don’t live in a state of perpetual adolescence, that’s a big aim of Exodus 90 App for men looking to enrich their spiritual life according to the app’s founder/director, James Baxter. If that’s what you’re looking for, and you’d like to take a hardcore approach to seriously tackle your spiritual growth between now and Easter (or any 90-day period you choose), here’s your programme.
What you get:
- Exodus 90is an intense make-my-daily-routine-uncomfortable initiative that emphasises traditional forms of mortification like various forms of abstinence, physical discomfort, prayer and meditation to get you to break bad habits and form new ones that lead to freedom in Jesus Christ. And because this exercise covers 90 days, if you begin on Ash Wednesday (February 26), your journey ends May 26 (Memorial of St Philip Neri, if you’re wondering).
