2. The Listening Side of Prayer by Stacey
Padrick: "I have learned to hear
His voice through listening prayer—what some call contemplative
prayer ... I slowly inhale, saying to myself Jesus' name, and with each exhalation I release
a fear or worry that is on my mind. Then, I continue to think
on Jesus' name, yet each time I exhale I think on a characteristic
of Jesus." Entire

In the interview, Rose and Warren discuss the Purpose Driven Life paradigm and its relation to Christianity in North America and around the world. Here are a few of the comments:
1.
Rick Warren states there are over 2 billion Christians in
the world, and says that this number includes hundreds of
millions of Catholics.
2. Warren said that, with regard to his book, "I couldn't figure out why it became such a phenomena. I think now it was because God wanted to provide a platform for these other issues we care about." (Warren's 5 global giants)
3. "I've been taking people, irreligious people, people with no background in any kind of faith or they haven't been to church or synagogue or temple in forty years ... and we take them where they need to be.... My goal is to move the American church [away] from self-centered consumerism.

This interview showed very clearly Warren's dream to see Christians and Catholics join together, stating that "minor doctrinal differences" should not keep them separated. "What I am interested in is bringing the church together ... we are never going to agree on a lot of things, but I found we do agree on purpose." He talked about the purposes that all Catholics and Protestants agree on. Read the rest of this article.
