33. BONUS: If You Haven’t Been Prayed Over in a Long Time

🎙️ 33. BONUS: If You Haven’t Been Prayed Over in a Long Time

This labor of love is my Christmas gift to you. I wasn’t planning to make this episode, but if it helps even one person this Christmas season, it was worth it.

Over the past 7 months, I invited pastors, priests, and reverends from around the world to pray for those who haven’t been prayed over in a long time. This episode is a compilation of those prayers, woven together with music from singer-songwriters featured in Season One. There are some guests sprinkled in that will be in Season Two!

Beloveds, you are loved just as you are. You matter to God. You have infinite worth, and you are needed. My hope is that this prayerful meditation offers healing, peace, and clarity—and invites you to listen for the Holy Spirit as you reflect, remember, and rest.

May you leave with a little more courage, a little more clarity, and a peace that surpasses understanding.

 Merry Christmas.
