What is Taketime?
Taketime offers Bible based, Christ centred meditations that guide you through simple, focused prayer. Accessible to everyone—even those exploring faith—these meditations, originally inspired by Saint Ignatius, help you both speak and listen. They were developed originally in a prison chaplaincy context but are now used extensively in Churches, Schools, Hospital and Hospice Chaplaincies and in spiritual discipleship and development.
