Summary
In today's episode, we are diving into Jesus Calling, a popular "Christian" devotional penned by Sarah Young, as well as the practice of modern day "contemplative" prayer. Examining both in the light of Scripture, we pray that this episode will lead our sisters in Christ to seek after the pure, living and active Word of God.
