Hearing God’s voice is not some far off distant mystical thing reserved only for the super spiritual that takes years of fasting to accomplish.

Plus a listener’s question on the presence of God.SHOW NOTES:Catch the Fire, TorontoJohn & Carol ArnottTuroGran Turismo 7Beat Saber1 Samuel 23Kris Vallotton on Bridge BuildersMark Virkler’s keys to hearing God’s voiceJohn 10.27Hebrews 5.14John 12.49-50Hebrews 4.16Episode 18Finding Father Video CoursePsalm 139.7Psalm 51.11Exodus 33.14-15Ask us a questionBECOME A MEMBERMembership comes with rewards.

God is the kindest person you will ever meet in your life. He's so good, that he answers even the smallest of prayers - the ones that are so small you might be forgiven for thinking they don't even count as thoughts let alone prayers. If that sounds too good to be true, we’ve got a bunch of stories from the Bible, our own life and even give you a 5 step process to partnering with the goodness of God.SHOW NOTES:Luke 1.13Luke 1.45Psalm 145.16CHiPsDougie Howser, M.D.Whizz KidsLuke 1.6Luke 1.48Ask us a questionBECOME A MEMBERMembership comes with rewards.
