But what does that really mean, especially when you're new to faith, coming back, or still unsure what you believe?
This episode dives into the practice of prayer, not as a performance or obligation, but as something real, honest, and grounding. Erin and Kaitlyn share how prayer has reshaped their spiritual lives, from grief and guilt to trust and transformation.
