Summary
Prayer is supposed to be the heartbeat of the Christian life, yet for many believers it has quietly become an afterthought. Churches talk about prayer, books are written about prayer, and we tell each other we will pray… but if we are honest, most Christians struggle to actually do it. In this episode, we confront the silent crisis that exists inside the modern church: a generation of believers who believe in prayer but rarely practice it. Why has something so central to the faith become so neglected?
