Do you long to feel more connected to God during prayer?  Do you ever find yourself comparing your prayer experience to someone else's and wonder why you didn't get as much out of the very prayer that seemed to blow them away?  Do you ever feel GUILTY or like there is something wrong with you because you "didn't get anything out of it"?  Knowing this can help you feel freedom from this guilt!  This episode is based on the blog by Meg Hunger Kilmer that explores the book Prayer and Temperament by Michael and Norrissey.  The book helps you learn how your natural prayer style is connected to your personality type.  You can take an awesome free Myers Briggs Personality Type assessment here!!  You will get a lot out of the assessment itself, so it's worth your time! TRUST ME!  Your personality type will match to one of the following spirituality types: SP (Franciscan), NT (Thomistic), SJ (Ignatian), and NF (Augustinian).  We also share some other tips to help you grow closer to the Lord, including some ideas from our own past Lenten experiences.  Katie shares THIS AUDIO ROSARY link here, if you want to check it out.  Disclaimer:  This is not us saying that the quality of prayer is about "how it makes you feel".  I also am not advocating that you only ever pray prayers that match your personality type.  But this knowledge can help you know where to focus your time/effort when growing in your intimacy with God in prayer.  Katie and I are NF personality types and so prayers like the rosary and other memorized/routine prayers are not our natural bent, but this DOESN'T MEAN we should stop praying the rosary or night prayer , for example.
