009 Says Who?—Me
from Holystic Christian Prayer Hosted by Nickolas Meinerz
Be a guest on the show! This short series is all about knowing who you're hearing from inside and outside of prayer. In this episode, we take some time to get to know ourselves. Join us in this episode as we learn to know when we are hearing our thoughts and feelings in times of prayer instead of hearing from God. If you know how you talk to yourself, you can better align yourself with Scripture, and more confidently know when you're hearing from God.
