Episode 8 Prayer Without Ceasing: Aligning Mind, Body, and Spirit
✨ Today’s First Steps – Episode 8
Title: Prayer Without Ceasing: Aligning Mind, Body, and Spirit
Host: Brother John Meador
Theme: Daily Discipline, Spiritual Alignment, and the Practice of Prayer
🗣️ Episode Summary
In this episode, Brother John Meador continues his heartfelt series on the renewing of the mind, emphasizing the importance of daily prayer—not as a ritual, but as a relationship. Drawing from Galatians and the writings of Apostle Paul, he explores how spiritual mysteries are revealed through consistent dedication and how prayer becomes a rhythm that shapes the soul.
Brother John shares personal reflections on decades of morning and evening prayer, encouraging listeners to set a consistent time for devotion. He reminds us that true prayer requires more than words—it calls for the alignment of body, mind, and spirit. Without that unity, prayer becomes distracted and disconnected. But with discipline, the desire to seek God grows stronger each day.
