BONUS: You Don’t Have to Chase God Anymore (The Danger of Living Unaware)

In this special edition of Morning Salt, Pastor Adam slows down to take a deeper look at one powerful realization from Scripture:God is present… even when we are unaware of Him.Reflecting on Bible verse Genesis 28:16, this episode explores the moment when Jacob awakens to the reality that God had been with him all along—and the weight of what it means to miss that.This isn’t just a devotional—it’s an invitation.An invitation to examine the subtle “drift” that can happen in our lives… not through rebellion, but through distraction, pressure, and living on autopilot.Through a personal and honest story—including both a life-altering heart attack and a later health scare—Pastor Adam shares how God used those moments to bring him back to a simple but life-changing truth:We are not lacking access to God’s presence—we are often lacking awareness of it.This episode challenges listeners to consider:What if the breakthrough you’re looking for isn’t something new God needs to do…but something present you need to recognize?Scripture“Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it.”— Genesis 28:16 (ESV)Call to ActionTake one moment today to pause and simply acknowledge:“God, You are here.”Awareness begins in moments like this.Go Deeper: The Theology of PresenceIf this message resonates with you, Pastor Adam invites you to go deeper through his new book, The Theology of Presence: Living Awake to the Nearness of God.This book is designed to help you move beyond striving and into a daily awareness of God’s presence in every moment of life.Grab your copy at my bookstore by clicking HERE or find it on Amazon.Bonus Giveaway (Limited Copies)Pastor Adam has a small number of early print copies of The Theology of Presence that include minor formatting quirks (same message, just not the final version).
