About this listen

What if the reason prayer feels hard isn’t because you’re doing it wrong—but because you’re trying to do it like someone else?

In this special episode, Chrys turns the microphone toward her co-host, Shellie Tomlinson, to talk about her newest book, Don’t Try to Pray Like Her.

Shellie openly shares how she once struggled when talking to God, feeling unsure, inconsistent, and even discouraged. But through that struggle, God gently led her into a deeper, more personal connection with Him. Along the way, Shellie discovered 15 prayer habits that helped her move past comparison and into a prayer life that felt honest, doable, and deeply meaningful.

With her trademark Southern charm, humor, and honesty, Shellie invites readers—and listeners—on a grace-filled journey toward practical prayer support that meets you exactly where you are.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

• Why comparing our prayer lives to others can be discouraging

• Shellie’s personal struggles with prayer

• How God used honesty—not perfection—to draw her closer

• The 15 prayer habits that helped Shellie go deeper with God

• Encouragement for anyone who feels “bad at praying”

• How to develop a prayer life that fits your personality and season
