Trowbridge to talk all things prayer: what it truly is, how to pray, and how to stay faithful when it feels difficult or distracting. Together, we unpack what the Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches about prayer and how to cultivate a deeper, more personal relationship with God. Fr. Trowbridge offers practical wisdom on handling distractions and growing in presence, persistence, and consistency, learning how to keep prayer alive even when emotions fade. Prayer isn’t about perfection. It’s about persevering, consistency and being present. Show up, stay consistent, and trust that persistence opens your heart to the quiet work of grace.
