Open Doors: Conversations with Heart of the Father
Open Doors is a conversation about inviting God’s love, presence, and power into our hearts. We are friends and teammates from Heart of the Father Ministries who share in the mission of setting captive hearts free through Unbound ministry. We’ll be touching on the impact of Neal Lozano’s book, Unbound, and hearing stories of lives changed through Unbound ministry. At times we’ll dig deep into the Five Keys of Unbound, simple responses to the gospel with profound impact on hearts and lives. Join us for stories, insights, reflections, and prayer as we seek Him together! Learn more at www.heartofthefather.com. Music by Christian Harper. Artwork by Rosemary Strohm at Command-S.

In this week’s episode of Open Doors Podcast, Emily, Jacqueline, and Lisa continue their Lenten book study on Personal Prayer: A Guide to Receiving the Father’s Love, diving into chapters on Scripture, Eucharistic adoration, and devotional prayer.
The conversation explores the richness of Lectio Divina, an ancient practice that helps Christians engage more deeply with sacred Scripture. Emily describes it as “chewing” on the Word of God, noting, “It gives you permission to think out loud with God in prayer.
Listen as all three women share dynamic personal examples on topics including scripture memorization, miraculous answered prayer, Adoration chapels, and repeating “The Jesus Prayer” — a devotion rooted in ancient monasticism.
And don’t miss Jacqueline’s story about a time in college when the Lord spoke to her through scripture and it proved life-changing!
For next week, read Chapters 10 & 11 and tune in to hear the final episode of our Lenten Series on Personal Prayer: A Guide to Receiving the Father’s Love.
