Personal prayer can seem hard if we have never done it intentionally. But if we commit to it on a regular basis, the benefits of personal prayer in our lives far outweigh the initial uncertainty of doing it with regularity.

In this podcast, we talk about what is personal prayer, how to do it, and why it helps. Whether you are a person who is beginning on your faith journey or someone who is familiar with the topic, we think you'll find the discussion useful.
