Episode 186: The Power of (And Cautions For) Engaging Listening Prayer with Michelle Kyle

Hole In My Heart Podcast

Friday, October 29, 2021 - 48 minutes

Sometimes, God wants to use counseling to help us heal.
Sometimes, it’s the Bible.
Sometimes, it’s the powerful word from a dear friend.
Sometimes, it’s prayer.
Sometimes (oftentimes?), it’s all of the above.

When Michelle Kyle and I (Laurie) met together for coaching, she said she felt “stuck.” I didn’t know if I could help her get unstuck, but using a prayer technique I have been engaging for 15 years, I thought I would give it a try.

What did we do?
Did she get unstuck?
What was the process, and how can I engage something like that today?
What cautions do Matt and I have when engaging this process?

Join us for this powerful and practical conversation on listening prayer and we will dive into these answers and more.

| Highlights |

“I just remember praying, ‘God, you’re gonna have to do something, because I literally close my eyes and I usually see nothing.’ And so I did….And all of a sudden, I did, it happened, and I could see myself on the edge of the pier.” -Michelle Kyle

“You [Laurie] had asked me, ‘Do you want to invite Jesus into that space?’ And I said, ‘Well, He’s actually already there.’” -Michelle Kyle
