defeating distractions in prayer.

And I'm just going to give you a little backstory,

a little story time with Beth and Steph.

About seven years ago,

Jenna asked me to come on the very first Blessed issue retreat.

Beautiful.

For ashes.

It's my first thing.

Praise God.

Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, stuff, Salinas.

Wow, God bless you.

Okay, you really persevered there.

Listen, seven years ago, Jenna was like, hey, I'm doing this thing.

I'm doing this blessed as she retreat.

Would you come and give a workshop on distractions and prayer?

And to be honest, this story is sort of larger than life at this point because I can't really

see myself doing this, but I know that I must have done it because I didn't give that talk.

I said to Jenna, no, I don't want to talk about that.

That really shocks me.

You might think that's my personality today, but that wasn't really my personality seven years ago.

I didn't have that kind of confidence, but I guess I did.
