“Beloved Source of Life, known by many names and beyond all names, we open this space with gratitude. We welcome the wisdom of every path, and we trust that even in our questions, love is listening.”Welcome to the very first episode of Praydate with Christa B Allen and Victoria Daniel, a sacred yet unfiltered space where prayer meets real life. In this opening conversation, we sit tenderly with the mystery of suffering: If God is good, why do we hurt?

Together, we explore the Epicurean paradox, the tension between free will and divine love, and the way pain can become a teacher when we meet it with presence. We share honest stories of grief, health challenges, and transformation, moments that broke us open and brought us home to ourselves.

Here, we don’t hide from the hard questions. We hold them in prayer. We ask what integrity, faith, and gratitude look like when life feels unfair, and how even our deepest doubts can become sacred ground.

This is an invitation to bring your whole self. The faith, the fear, the longing, the laughter. Because prayer isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence, honesty, and the courage to stay open.

Now let us close: “May every question lead us closer to truth. May every heartbreak become a doorway to compassion. And may the light within each of us remember — we are never alone, always connected, always held in love. And so it is.”

This is Praydate. Come sit with us. Pray with us.
