Contemplative prayer. Centering. Silence and stillness. These words sound peaceful—even spiritual—but are they biblical?
In this eye-opening episode, Shanda sits down with Marcia Montenegro, a former New Ager turned Christian apologist, to unpack the growing trend of contemplative prayer in the church. Together, they examine:
What contemplative prayer is—and how it differs from biblical prayer
Why terms like “centering,” “silence,” and “stillness” aren’t always as innocent as they sound
How contemplative practices blur the lines between Christianity and Eastern mysticism
Why these ideas are especially popular in women’s ministries and spiritual formation groups
What to do when a practice “feels spiritual” but doesn’t align with Scripture
Whether you’ve encountered these teachings or are just beginning to notice them, this episode will equip you to stand firm in biblical truth.
