Episode #88 Rejuvenate Your Prayers: Strategies and Insights for Deeper Connection with God
In today’s episode, we explore the concept of spiritual disciplines—habits and rhythms that help us grow in Christ. Author/Speaker Jody Allen joins me, Shelly Snead to discuss personal struggles and victories in one of the key disciplines: prayer. We discuss why prayer can be so challenging and ways to keep the rhythm of prayer fresh. We explore what it means to truly commune with God without the pressure of productivity or a checklist.
Our discussion answers the following questions to help you rejuvenate your prayers:
- What are spiritual disciplines?
- Why do we struggle with prayer?
- Is a correct theology important as we approach prayer?
- How does hurry impact our prayer life?
- How can scripture impact our prayers?
- What other ideas can we incorporate into our prayer life to practice the presence of God throughout the day?
