Christians Really Can Meditate After All

Have you ever felt like there must be a better way to connect with God than just reciting beautiful words, running holy narratives through your mind, or whispering profundities under your breath?
Many have felt this way, which is why people have turned to meditation.
But for many Christians, the word itself is a red flag. And rightly so!
It's become clear that many of those paths deviate significantly from Christian beliefs, embracing New Age, pantheism, non-duality, and eastern mindfulness. Nearly all forms of meditation lead down paths that diverge far from the teachings of Christ. You should run the other way!
Even some so-called "Christian" meditations are anything but—venturing into dangerous hypnotic techniques that include psychotropic trancing, music, and mind tricks.
But what if there was a way to meditate that deepens your connection with God while staying true to your faith?
Non-Contemplative Meditation, which I practice, is not a reinvention of your faith—it’s a way to enhance it. This simple practice helps Christians access a state of God-centered conscious awareness where love replaces judgment, and God’s will flows through effortlessly.
This isn’t about adopting New Age philosophies or Eastern traditions. It doesn’t require mantras, hypnotic guidance, or the teachings of a guru.
And at the same time, Non-Contemplative Meditation doesn’t replace your prayers, Bible readings, or church attendance either. Instead, it acts as a powerful supplement to these practices.
Jesus spoke of the Kingdom within—a state of perfect peace, forgiveness, and love. Christians should experience that kingdom as Jesus intended. This is aligning your mind with the mind of the Father, following the example set by Christ himself. It’s just you, a quiet moment, and God.
Since 1963, I’ve practiced and refined Non-Contemplative Meditation. For over 20 years, I’ve shared it with thousands, witnessing lives transformed. With the help of my son Danny Jr., we’ve brought this technique to the See App—a tool designed to guide Christians towards conscious awareness, one simple session at a time.
If you’ve wrestled with the idea of meditation, you’re not alone. But you no longer have to choose between your faith and finding stillness—or turn away from it because someone told you it was not Christian.
With Non-Contemplative Meditation, you will deepen your connection with God and stay true to Christ’s teachings, while discover perfect peace, forgiveness, and understanding.
