    I just recently started reading Liturgy Of The Hours. I bought the 1 Volume Christian Prayer, the 4 Volume full set (with enlarged print), installed the iBreviary on my Android and the Universalis app. So much confusion between them so I set out looking for someone, anyone, who can explain step by step, how to make it through an entire 'hour' of prayer. To no avail...until I found your videos. My prayers have finally been answered. Thank you for taking the time to help us get through the learning curve. Have a blessed day sir.

      Thanks for the comments! I know EXACTLY how you felt! I'm glad the videos helped you out.. I knew the struggle first hand and I didn't want anyone else to get discouraged from embarking on this wonderful prayer discipline.
      The apps I found limited as well. I believe they both use U.K. formats and I'm pretty sure the iBreviary even uses the "New Jerusalem" translation or something..
      In any case... I'm glad the video helped you out. I started shortly before Lent this year (2019) and I'm pretty adept at it now in my opinion. Once you get the flow of it, it will be completely natural to you. I carry my book everywhere and never miss a prayer! (Although I admit I've had to push my daytime hours pretty far on occasion.. midmorning to 11:00, then midday at 2:00pm instead of noon, etc...)
      Good luck and God bless!

      I started learning the Christian prayer version and then the 4 volume set of the LOTH. I highly recommend that you start with one first and do it gradually. It usually takes a week or so to learn each based on my experience.

      I'm glad you've found them useful! Hopefully you have figured out they have been arranged in playlists to break it up into easier to digest sections!

    This is a great set of videos. Just a quick note, in the Responsory after the Reading (to add even more confusion, LOL) the full Doxology isn't said. Just "Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit" followed by the complete Response.

      Thanks for that! I made these videos at least a year before joining a program and started praying with the rest of my class.... I picked up on that mistake the first time we did vespers :-) I was still better prepared than most of the other guys, so my "whoops" was lost in the other chaos.

    You had said in a previous video the times for the hours. I’m trying to remember if you can help refresh...morning i can do between 6-9am , trying close to 6am...and evening is 6-9pm?

      That's about right
      If you try to do all the hours, I find a good spacing (about every 3 hours) is:
      -Office of Readings + Morning Prayer when you get up and close to 6am
      -Midmorning at 9am
      -Midday at noon
      -Midafternoon at 3pm
      -Evening around 6pm
      -Night Prayer around 9pm

    I know this is an old video but when you're alone do you read out loud or read it all to yourself or a mix of the two?

      @@mamiller1980 a mix... more of a whisper than out loud... vocalizing in any way helps me focus.
