Is your prayer life shaped by what you know about God, or by actually knowing Him?

In this episode of The Privilege of Prayer, Nerida Ashcroft and Alison Shaw dig into a question that changes everything: are we asking God for things, or are we actually pursuing a relationship with Him?

Prayer isn't just a list of requests. It's an invitation to know God personally, the way you'd know a close friend rather than a distant acquaintance. Nerida and Alison explore what it looks like to move from knowing facts about God to genuinely knowing Him, and how that shift reshapes not just what we pray for, but why we pray at all.

They share honest reflections on their own journeys with God, the moments that deepened their trust in Him, and what our prayers can reveal about the true state of our relationship with Him.

Whether you feel like you know God well or you're still figuring out who He is to you, come and join the conversation.
