What is Prayer? Learning to Pray with Honesty & Faith
In this episode, I share how my understanding of prayer has shifted through the When You Pray Bible study. What started as spontaneous conversations with God became a deeper practice of gratitude, surrender, and trust. I talk about laying burdens at the altar, learning to leave them there, and why vulnerability in prayer matters—even when it feels uncomfortable to share publicly. We’ll walk through Luke 11’s prayer, the lessons I’ve learned about consistency and obedience, and how prayer not only changes us, but also strengthens our love for others. This is a candid, faith-filled conversation about letting God meet you in your frustration, endurance, and growth.
