Morning, afternoon, and night—Judaism has a prayer service for every part of the day. In Jewish Daily Prayer Services in 10 Minutes, we'll take a whirlwind tour through Shacharit, Mincha, and Maariv, the three pillars of Jewish daily prayer. We'll explore where they come from—patriarchs, Temple sacrifices, or maybe both—and what they look like today, from the Shema and Amidah to psalms, blessings, and more. We'll peek into the rhythm of Jewish life shaped by these services: the tallit and tefillin in the morning, the quiet pause of Mincha in the afternoon, and the winding down of Maariv at night. Along the way, we'll highlight the blend of structure and spontaneity that makes Jewish prayer both familiar and endlessly personal. And yes, we'll have a little fun—because only Judaism could turn a "daily schedule" into centuries of debate, choreography, and song. Ten minutes, three services, and one timeless tradition of talking to God.
