In this mini-sode, Alan shares a way of praying scripture that has become an important part of his spiritual rhythm. In a sense, it’s not just about “me praying scripture.” It’s also about God’s Spirit praying scripture into me.

At the heart of his mini-sode is a six-minute guided prayer in Psalm 16:5-9.
