Episode notes
Welcome New Beginnings In Prayer
- When you run out of words or techniques, welcome the Holy Spirit to begin praying through you.
- Embrace “beginning again” as an opportunity for deeper intimacy with God.
Prayer Grows Like A Plant
- Prayer practices can become too small like a potted plant whose roots need more soil and space.
- Growing into new forms of prayer gives more nourishment and room for intimacy with God.
Rest In Silence And Fixed Hours
- Use silence and fixed-hour (liturgical) prayer to rest and receive rather than always producing words.
- Enter written prayers to access deeper longings you can't express spontaneously.
