Ep.153 - RE:CONNECT - Coming Home to God’s Presence

What happens when lines of communication break down between us and God? How do we reconnect when such lines die? Is there always a way to reconnect beyond our ability to discern such paths? What role does grace and God’s Spirit play in steering us back to a better understanding and commitment?

This week, the Curious team take a look at how we disconnect from God. Looking at the deteriorating effects of busyness, of , neglect, of the things we do not confess, of the unanswered and misguided reliances; all of which feed into separating us from the conscious awareness of God’s blessing. The team also take a deep dive into what Jesus meant when he said “abide in me”; and how that works out in day-to-day life. En route they also reflect on the difficulty and yet power of seasons of dryness that inevitably can lead to rediscovery.

Join the Curious team this week as they look at the dangers of disconnecting and some practical steps to reconnection and personal restoration
