What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in 18Forty’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
So, how does prayer work? >> It's an opportunity [music] to reach the deepest part of who I am, to uncover myself, and to feel that I'm safe talking to my father, to my king, and pouring my heart out to him, telling him everything about my life and trying to find out more about his life and having this dialogue with him. That's what Thr is to me. It's >> this intimate [music] expression of a relationship, >> a conversation, a dialogue. It's not one-sided. [music] >> Beautiful.
