United StatesPushing past the concerns of this earthly life fills us with the meaning and joy that we desperately crave. Attempts to find our purpose or confront spiritual emptiness will fall short outside of communion with the One who created us in His image. There is no substitute for an energizing relationship with God. A consistent, disciplined prayer life energizes our relationship with God and restores our weary spirits. Prayer is a human need. That’s why Faithtree Resources has created The Encounter. The Encounter invites Christians into a daily habit of prayer- our app teaches us how to pray since worship is both an art and a skill. Many of us don’t know where to start, so we created The Encounter to help. This project was born from the inspirational prayer fellowship of The Common Prayer Discipline of St. Philip the Evangelist. The Encounter helps to facilitate morning, noonday, and evening prayers so that they become a regular part of our daily lives. Top Features: - Engaging daily prayers written from the Orthodox Christian Tradition are available in both text and voice-over presentations. - The hymnology of the Orthodox Church has been orchestrated and recorded to ease us into a calming, focused rhythm of prayer. - A commemorated Saint of the Day is highlighted daily. - Our Prayer Resource Center includes a variety of topics-specific prayers that curate our conversations with God by using devotions from the Saints of the Church. - A Prayer Request option allows us to reach out to others in our Faithtree community to gather together, request specific prayers or jointly give thanks. - So much more!
One Star Only For Dropping Support of Older Phones
I loved this program, but now I only get a notification to upgrade to the latest version - which requires iOS 16 or greater. My phone can only do 15.8, so can no longer access this. So, 1-star for leaving me and others behind.. To the user that doesn’t like the music - assuming no changes; click the profile button. You will see a pause button to the right of your name; this silences the music..
United StatesThis is what the world needs
I have pointed many young adults toward this app as a way to stay connected and they use as much or as little of it as they need. It works very reliably and helps even the youngest users develop a habit of prayer To the reviewer that said he deleted the app because there was no way to turn the music off - of course there is, you just didn’t look hard enough 🙂
United StatesNot as inclusive as I wished.
I was really disappointed there isn’t an Old Calendar option so I could use the app more diligently.
United StatesGood but imperfect app
This is a very fine app in general, however,there are a few bugs and inconsistencies that are annoying. One reason I am writing this review is because the feedback button does not work, at least not more than once. I gave positive feedback when I first downloaded and used the app. Since then, it doesn't work. If I were to be contacted, I would gladly give additional details rather than bleating on here because I do truly like and use this app.
United StatesSappy Music
I was excited when I first opened the app, but the sentimental music was so sappy. I had to shut it down. Give there was no why to turn it off, I deleted the app. Unfortunate.
United StatesAMAZING
This app is an absolute godsend! I find myself engaging in prayer so much more often because of it. The voices are natural, and it is easy to use. Make sure you download it and use it!
United StatesExcellent prayer app
This app is an excellent source of prayers for the Eastern Orthodox Church. The app is thorough, responsive, and bug-free. I highly recommend giving it a try.
