Stop Pretending When You Pray
from The Table Church DC · host The Table Church DC
Many of us carry complicated feelings about prayer — maybe it was weaponized against us, maybe it felt hollow, or maybe we prayed hard for something and got silence in return. This episode sits with that tension honestly, without rushing past it. Antonio Ingram explores what prayer actually looks like when you stop performing and start showing up as you are — scared, angry, lonely, in pain. Drawing from the prophet Jeremiah, he makes the case that raw, unfiltered honesty isn't a barrier to connecting with God — it's the door. Whether you've been avoiding prayer for years or you're just exhausted by the version of it you inherited, this one is worth your time. Cast your nets one more time.
