What comes to mind when you picture God, and where did that picture come from?

In this episode of The Privilege of Prayer, Nerida Ashcroft and Alison Shaw explore how childhood experiences, life events, and even well-meaning teaching can quietly distort our view of who God is. Whether we picture Him as distant, disappointed, or demanding, those images shape the way we approach Him in prayer, often without us realising it.

Nerida and Alison unpack why we can't put God in a box built from our own experiences, and how Scripture invites us into a fresh, ongoing revelation of His true character. If your view of God feels small, painful, or incomplete, this episode is an invitation to let Him redefine it.
