Every month, Heathen Essential Chat and social
Perhaps you are beginning your journey as a Heathen. You may have friends or family that have become Heathen, and you’d like to know more about it.

This free resource is available to the public as part of our continuing mission to educate and serve. You can take this course without membership in The Troth to learn more about the basics of our faith.

Some questions may be specific, others may be general. Any questions on heathenry is welcome. The Zoom meetings are offered as a resource to ask questions and chat with other heathens.

Saturday Evening Public Prayer Service (Streaming Live on Twitch)
2025-07-26 16:00 - 17:00
Join us for a public prayer service for the Heathen community
Every Saturday evening at 6pm Eastern, 3pm Pacific
Before you head out for the night, why not stop by for a quick prayer service? Each week our Clergy will conduct a public prayer service that anyone can drop into from anywhere in the world. We recognize that Heathenry is a small religion, and that we are spread out all over the world. Some of us in very remote parts of it!
We don’t have temples spread across the earth for people to go to with paid clergy to attend each and every congregation. Which is great to some of us who don’t miss the structure of more organized religions, but it does get a little lonely. Here’s our attempt at making things a little bit less lonely out there.
The natural diversity of Prayer Service
Each of the members of our clergy are unique in their theological approach, so you will see a diversity of practice from Goði to Goði and Gyðja to Gyðja. For example, Rev. Ben KG follows his “Threefold Prayer” but others follow a different model.

Each of our clergy does things a little differently because we are all different. Some in our clergy prefer to stand during prayer, others sit, others kneel, and a few of them even fully prostrate. The Goði or Gyðja will go through what you’re about to do, then will pray together, and then we will have some time for questions from the Chat.
Again, be sure to subscribe to the Twitch stream in order to participate in the Chat.

About the Heathenry Essentials Study Chat
Welcome to Heathenry (also known as Asatru).
Every month, Heathen Essential Chat and social
Perhaps you are beginning your journey as a Heathen. You may have friends or family that have become Heathen, and you’d like to know more about it. We hope that, as you work through the readings, essays, and sample questions, you will develop a fuller understanding of Asatru and what it means to be Heathen in a modern context. This free resource is available to the public as part of our continuing mission to educate and serve. You can take this course without membership in The Troth to learn more about the basics of our faith.
How the Heathenry Essentials Study Chat Works
The first 60 to 90 minutes we usually discuss the subjects chosen by those who attend the chat, focusing on their areas of interest. Each student is learning at their own pace. Some questions may be specific, others may be general. Any questions on heathenry is welcome. The Zoom meetings are offered as a resource to ask questions and chat with other heathens. Attending the Zoom meeting is NOT required to do the self-study course, and many students do the course never attending a single meeting.
The first part of questions and discussion or presentation is part may be recorded. After the focused study chat, the remaining time will be spent on social chat. This portion will not be recorded. This part does not require attendance to participate in the study chat; you can drop off at any time if attending the study part, attending the social part is not required. You are also welcome to come late if needed. If the room is still open and available, you will be admitted.
Privacy: If being recorded causes privacy to be a concern for you, feel free to join with the video blocked, or an attendee can put up a neutral picture in their free Zoom account (or leave blank). Attendees can change their names to a code name and use the chat feature if speaking and having their voice heard or recorded may be a concern.
When entering, you first enter a waiting room where all who join the room are admitted with their microphones and videos blocked to allow them to set their preferences. This allows you to set your settings as you desire. It is recommended you set up a free Zoom account so you can preset a display picture, (keep it appropriate) your display when camera is turned off, so it is ready when entering zoom meetings.

Perhaps you are beginning your journey as a Heathen. You may have friends or family that have become Heathen, and you’d like to know more about it.

This free resource is available to the public as part of our continuing mission to educate and serve. You can take this course without membership in The Troth to learn more about the basics of our faith.
How the Heathenry Essentials Study Chat Works
The first 60 to 90 minutes we usually discuss the subjects chosen by those who attend the chat, focusing on their areas of interest. Each student is learning at their own pace. Some questions may be specific, others may be general. Any questions on heathenry is welcome. The Zoom meetings are offered as a resource to ask questions and chat with other heathens. Attending the Zoom meeting is NOT required to do the self-study course, and many students do the course never attending a single meeting.

This part does not require attendance to participate in the study chat; you can drop off at any time if attending the study part, attending the social part is not required. You are also welcome to come late if needed. If the room is still open and available, you will be admitted.

About the Heathenry Essentials Study Chat
Welcome to Heathenry (also known as Asatru).
Every month, Heathen Essential Chat and social
Perhaps you are beginning your journey as a Heathen. You may have friends or family that have become Heathen, and you’d like to know more about it. We hope that, as you work through the readings, essays, and sample questions, you will develop a fuller understanding of Asatru and what it means to be Heathen in a modern context. This free resource is available to the public as part of our continuing mission to educate and serve. You can take this course without membership in The Troth to learn more about the basics of our faith.
How the Heathenry Essentials Study Chat Works
The first 60 to 90 minutes we usually discuss the subjects chosen by those who attend the chat, focusing on their areas of interest. Each student is learning at their own pace. Some questions may be specific, others may be general. Any questions on heathenry is welcome. The Zoom meetings are offered as a resource to ask questions and chat with other heathens. Attending the Zoom meeting is NOT required to do the self-study course, and many students do the course never attending a single meeting.
The first part of questions and discussion or presentation is part may be recorded. After the focused study chat, the remaining time will be spent on social chat. This portion will not be recorded. This part does not require attendance to participate in the study chat; you can drop off at any time if attending the study part, attending the social part is not required. You are also welcome to come late if needed. If the room is still open and available, you will be admitted.
Privacy: If being recorded causes privacy to be a concern for you, feel free to join with the video blocked, or an attendee can put up a neutral picture in their free Zoom account (or leave blank). Attendees can change their names to a code name and use the chat feature if speaking and having their voice heard or recorded may be a concern.
When entering, you first enter a waiting room where all who join the room are admitted with their microphones and videos blocked to allow them to set their preferences. This allows you to set your settings as you desire. It is recommended you set up a free Zoom account so you can preset a display picture, (keep it appropriate) your display when camera is turned off, so it is ready when entering zoom meetings.
By joining the Zoom meeting for the chat part, you consent to and agree that you are aware that the Zoom chat may be recorded and may be posted to YouTube for students in the program. By joining and participating, you are demonstrating that you consent to this.

Saturday Morning Public Asatru Prayer Service
2026-02-14 06:00 - 2026-02-15 06:30 | The Troth on Twitch
Join The Troth every Saturday morning at 7 AM Eastern Time for a Heathen Prayer Service hosted by our clergy
The service is currently hosted by Rev. Ben Kowalsky-Grahek.
Have you been curious about how Norse Pagan, Heathen or Asatru prayer and ritual work? Have you read all your Sagas and Eddas (and your Saxo Grammaticus) and you want to see how we put it into practice? Look no further. The Troth has two weekly public prayer services streamed on Twitch (just Twitch for now, but looking to expand in the future).
Our clergy will take you through their practice, break it down step by step (with citations available!), take prayer and praise requests, and then we will go through the whole thing together, with open time for questions at the end.
We are hoping through this series that we demystify Asatru, Heathenry and Norse Paganism and show people that it is not all homework: it’s a belief lived through practice that anyone can do.
Our service is only 30 minutes long.
Outline of the Service

First 10 Minutes: Introductions and education on Heathen prayer
Second 10 Minutes: Prayer
Last 10 Minutes: Questions and Answers with the Clergy
