This may not be what you normally expect from an episode of Spiritual Steps, but I think it's important to have a conversation about what it means to experience intimacy with God during prayer, and how we manage our expectations of such experiences. 

This episode offers a way of praying that helps us develop our perspective. Sometimes you need to see the forest, and some times you need to see the trees. 

The context in which you read a text can be just as important as the context in which it was written. This episode, we'll learn to use that.

Three exercises for opening up the reading of scripture by shifting your reading context.
