Prayer isn’t just talking — it’s learning to listen.

In the Season 4 premiere of Project Sisterhood, Chrissy Cole sits down with Kathy Cannon for a powerful and refreshingly real conversation about prayer, silence, and hearing God.

If you’ve ever felt like:

• you don’t know what to say when you pray,
• you can’t stay consistent,
• you feel distracted the whole time,
• or God feels quiet…

this episode is for you.

Chrissy and Kathy unpack what prayer really is — not performance, not perfection — but relationship. Together they talk about why silence matters, how to create space to actually hear God, and what it looks like to build a prayer life that is honest, practical, and life-giving.

In this episode:
✨ Why many people struggle with prayer
👂 How to practice listening, not just speaking
🕊️ The spiritual power of silence
💬 Practical ways to pray when you don’t know what to say
🔥 How prayer changes your life from the inside out

This is your reminder: you’re not bad at prayer — you’re just too loud. And God wants to meet you in the quiet.
