Description

How do you address God when you pray? Has the way you name the divine changed over your lifetime?

In this contemplative episode, Carolyn Meers invites us to slow down and explore the mystery of naming God. Drawing from biblical stories like Hagar's encounter with "the God who sees" and Moses' conversation with the burning bush, we reflect on how our names for God reveal as much about us as they do about the divine.

This episode includes gentle questions for reflection, periods of space for contemplation, and a guided practice of "naming and un-naming" that might help you explore both familiar and unfamiliar ways of addressing God. It's an invitation to embrace both the intimacy of naming God and the beautiful mystery of the unnameable.
