Are you allowing God to speak to you in new ways?

In this episode of Drawing Deeper in Devotion, I reflect on how praise and worship have been my go-to route to tangibly experiencing the Holy Spirit in my life, but how lately God has opened a new direct line connection - one I wasn’t expecting.

It’s been through re-engaging a Bible-in-a-year reading plan that God has deepened my love for scripture, birthing a hunger in me that’s brought new insights and spiritual connection.

I’ll speak about the duality of human and spiritual experiences, emphasizing the importance of recognizing our true identity. I'll reflect on my journey of embracing rituals like Lectio Divina and chants, highlighting the power of silence and contemplative practices which can be a surprise to someone like me who comes from a more vibrant, expressive background.

This episode encourages openness to diverse expressions of spirituality, inviting you to question personal biases about God's presence, while still discerning the intention of and source behind various spiritual practices. I emphasize how God is accessible in all things and meets us where we are, without needing to change our natural tendencies.

Join me for a spiritually enriching conversation that encourages you to believe in your inherent power, recognize you are enough as you are, and trust in God's presence throughout your life. If you're looking to deepen your spiritual fulfillment and embrace God's guidance, this episode is for you.

Remember, God meets us exactly where we are and will speak to you in a variety of ways. Do not limit his voice by expecting it to sound exactly how it’s sounded in the past.
