What if prayer is less about talking to God and more about experiencing God directly?

In this episode of Spirituality on the Go, I sit down with Paul Smith, Christian mystic, author, and co-founder of the Integral Christian Network. Paul has spent a lifetime pushing past the boundaries of conventional religion to discover what he calls integral prayer, a whole body experience of God that moves through the mind, heart, gut, and feet. We talk about what it truly means to be a mystic, the three faces of God, and why collective prayer in community can take you somewhere you simply cannot go alone.
