Tired of fake prayer? Discover the real, raw heart of connecting with God beyond perfection or performance!
Want a deeper prayer life? We’re exploring how prayer is often misunderstood as a performance rather than an honest encounter with God. Josh Lewis welcomes Dr. Kyle Strobel, associate professor of spiritual theology at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University to explore spiritual formation, the messiness of prayer, and how Christian theology meets lived experience.
In this episode of Remnant Radio, Josh and Kyle navigate the tension between seeking God’s presence and living by faith even amid spiritual dryness. We’ll explore spiritual warfare and examine why our wandering minds in prayer are actually gifts, revealing the longings of our hearts. Their conversation bridges scholarly theology with down-to-earth practical wisdom, equipping you for a vibrant Christian life marked by honest prayer, theological depth, and spiritual growth.

Cessationists claim they vanished throughout church history, but that's a myth. In Remnant Radio’s new ebook, History of Spiritual Gifts: The Myth of Cessationism, I dive into church history to reveal the active use of spiritual gifts by early church fathers
