The Spiritual Formation Podcast
The Spiritual Formation Podcast with Pastor Galen Ryman is a podcast designed to help you know and experience Jesus. If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to connect with God in new ways, this podcast is for you. In each episode, you’ll learn a quick thought, idea, or practice. You’ll also be given space to contemplate how you might begin to experiment with living differently as a result. Pastor Galen Ryman is the Lead Pastor of First Nazarene Church in Chicago who approaches this podcast with a practical application in mind while sharing lessons learned through personal and professional experience and his education in earning his Masters of Divinity and Doctoral of Ministry in Spiritual Formation. Our hope and prayer is that as you listen, learn, and experiment, you would be transformed by the renewing of your mind to be shpaed and formed into the image of Jesus, and become more and more who God has created you to be. In Season 1 of the podcast, we’ll focus on the transformative experiances of those who have connected with God throughout time. We’ll explore what we can learn from some notable names in history and then discover how we can put those same practices into our lives today.
