It's vulnerable to ask for what we need or desire. Opening our hearts to others cultivates connection and trust but also leaves us susceptible to rejection and disappointment. And it's no different in a relationship with Jesus — depending on him wholeheartedly always requires risk.

Join us for this episode of Soul Talks as Bill and Kristi talk about the nuances of prayer. The closer you grow to the Good Shepherd, the more you'll sense him move you away from transactional prayer and into a conversational relationship. It's in this space of vulnerable interaction that you become more confident in Jesus' love, grow in self-awareness, and develop a larger capacity for emotional honesty and empathy.
