Pop-Up Prayer: Guest Jude Huntz

Joe Paprocki Prayer/Guided Reflections

Pop-Up Prayer hosted by Joe Paprocki

For many people, journaling is a key component of their prayer lives. I journaled on and off for more than 30 years (until, like Forrest Gump’s cross-country running, one day I just stopped). Journaling can help a person express feelings more concretely and also provides an archive of prayer that can be returned to from time to time. In today’s episode of Pop-Up Prayer, my guest is Jude Huntz, a chaplain at the University of Kansas Medical Center and longtime pastoral minister. Join us as Jude shares insights about journaling and prayer.
