About this app

The Jesus Words Meditation app contains guided audio-meditations. The meditations consist of three parts: First you are guided into silence through breathing and body awareness. Find a place of inner silence and prepare yourself to listen. Words of Jesus are in the center of each meditation. The silence between the sentences allow you to ponder over the words. Listen with your heart. Find peace and guidance. At the end of each meditation there is time to reflect on your personal experience.

Meditation is a common practice to slow down and to connect with ourselves. Many people don't know that meditation has a long Christian tradition. The so called desert fathers were men and women who left the cities to find God in the silence of the desert. Monks had their own meditation tradition as well. When we read in the Bible we discover that God himself calls us to meditate on his words. It's not so much about cognitive understanding but more about understanding with the heart and the whole being.
At Jesus Words Meditation we focus on the teachings of Jesus because we believe that they have power to change our lives and to give us a new perspective. There is so much to explore about Jesus and about this very special relationship to God as a father.

The verses we use in the meditations are from the „World English Bible“. This is a public domain translation.

Ratings and reviews

Love this app! Had it for a few years. Scripture, music, nature sounds, and a light guidance. Nothing more. Simple yet profound. You can customize sounds in each session, and also choose how long each session is. So if you just need a short one, it's ready to go. Helps me slow down & focus on Jesus' words, & that in itself is powerful. Helps me focus anxiety away from my body. Highly recommend for any Christian or bible lover.

I love the app, however I would agree with another review that the voice is difficult to understand. It can, and should be soft, however it sounds like the voice was recorder on poor quality audio. It would be a nice feature to be able to schedule notifications to have the app remind us to use it. Just a thought. Thank you for continuing to provide such a wonderful app.

I have an android phone and I tried to launch the app but it keeps stopping. I uninstalled and reinstalled it, but the same thing keeps happening: the title page pops up, says checking for updates, updates, then disappears without opening. I like the app and want to use it more often, but it's presently impossible. Needs an update or something. I had to uninstall it again, unable to use it.

What's new

With this update, I've rebuilt the app from scratch to replace the old and malfunctioning version. Consider this new version as a beta as there are still some features from the old version missing.
