Most of us inherited one model for spiritual growth: a quiet room, a Bible, and solitude. It works for some people. Tim's wife has a prayer closet that proves it.

Topics covered in this episode:
If your engagement with scripture has felt more like a discipline to endure than a fire to tend, this episode is for you.
