Have you ever felt like your faith was put to the test or wondered how to find solace in prayer during trying times? Thomas Hammen's inspirational journey might illuminate your path. Thomas recounts his Florida upbringing, his days as an SPO missionary, and how simple acts, like his daily short prayer, sustain his profound connection with God. This episode is a heartfelt reflection on the challenges and triumphs of faith, intended to offer hope and guidance for those navigating their own spiritual journeys.

Thomas opens up about the transition from adolescence to adulthood, revealing the missteps and the allure of vices that once distanced him from his faith. An extraordinary retreat and the joy witnessed in a friend named Mike became the catalysts for a profound personal meeting with Jesus Christ, marking a pivotal moment in his life. 

We then venture deeper, exploring the sustaining role of prayer and its impact on mental well-being within the seminary walls. The conversation extends to practical advice for those experiencing spiritual desolation and the balancing act amidst the distractions of social media. Join us for an exploration of finding God in scripture, the authenticity required in prayer, and the simplicity of making space for divine encounters in everyday life. Thomas Hammen's story isn't just about faith; it's an invitation to weave the divine into the fabric of our daily lives.
