    Feb 24 2026
    We all want a better prayer life — but most of us feel distracted, inconsistent, or unsure if it even matters.In this episode of No Matter What, Hanna Seymour sits down with bestselling author Paul Miller (A Praying Life, A Praying Church, The J-Curve) to talk honestly about why prayer feels so hard — and how we can approach God like beloved children instead of spiritual performers.They discuss unanswered prayer, praying through suffering, how legalism sneaks into our spiritual lives, and why corporate prayer may be the missing piece in many churches. Paul shares how learning to pray reshaped his own family’s story — including walking through deep suffering — and offers simple, freeing ways to begin again.If you’ve ever felt guilt about prayer, struggled with silence from God, or wondered where to start, this conversation is for you.⏱ Chapters0:00 Why Prayer Feels So Hard2:00 Is Prayer a Spiritual Gift?5:45 Learning to Pray Like a Child9:00 Should We Ask God for Things?13:00 Unanswered Prayer & Suffering18:30 How Busy Moms Can Pray21:00 Stop & Pray (Simple Practice)23:30 Praying Scripture Over Your Kids26:00 What Is a Praying Church?31:00 Corporate Prayer & the Holy SpiritKey Topics CoveredLegalism and guilt in prayerChildlike faithAsking God for tangible desiresUnanswered prayer and sufferingThe J-Curve (death → resurrection pattern)Corporate prayer in the churchThe role of the Holy SpiritPractical ways to begin praying todayPraying Scripture over your familySustainable prayer rhythms for busy seasons📚 Connect with Paul📖 Paul's books → https://seejesus.net/collections/all📸 Instagram: @SeeingJesus💬 Connect with Hanna🌐 hannaeseymour.com📸 Instagram: @HannaeseymourGet your copy of Everyday Spiritual Habits https://hannaseymour.com/EVERYDAYSPIRITUALHABITS/🎧 Listen to No Matter What wherever you get your podcasts#Prayer #NoMatterWhatPodcast #Prayerlife #Spiritualhabits #PaulEMiller #ChristianPodcast #ChristianWomen #SpiritualHabits #BusyMomLife #HannaSeymour

    What if memorizing Scripture isn’t just for kids—or “professional Christians”—but a life-changing practice for everyday believers?In this episode of No Matter What, Hanna Seymour sits down with author and Bible teacher Glenna Marshall to talk about the discipline of memorizing Scripture and how it moves us from merely reading God’s Word to truly living it.
