Authentic Masculinity

How to Pray: Simple Framework for Powerful Connection


Listen Later

"Am I praying or just talking to myself?" If you've ever wondered this question, you're not alone. This episode cuts through the confusion about prayer to reveal a straightforward approach that transforms scattered thoughts into meaningful conversation with God.

Between Christians who struggle with prayer and non-believers who surprisingly claim answered prayers, the conversation around spiritual connection has become increasingly muddled. Discover how a simple four-part framework—built directly from Jesus' own model—creates structure without sacrificing authenticity.

Through an unexpected father-son exchange about weapons that perfectly illustrates our relationship with God, you'll understand why bringing your complete, unfiltered self (even the parts you're not proud of) creates genuine connection rather than distance. The approach balances reverence with raw honesty.

For men who find themselves either overthinking prayer or avoiding it altogether, this episode provides a practical method that feels natural rather than religious. You'll discover why there's no such thing as perfect prayers—only honest ones.
