Episode 18 Jesus Is Here

Send us Fan MailGod’s omnipresence is easy to affirm and surprisingly hard to live. We’re Scott and Amy, and we get honest about the gap between Christian belief and Tuesday afternoon behavior. Psalm 139 says there’s nowhere we can go from God’s presence, but most of us still move through the day like we’re on our own, filtering our choices based on who we think is “in the room.”We dig into how Jesus actually lives. In John 5:19, Jesus describes a dependent relationship where he does what he sees the Father doing, a life shaped by attention, trust, and responsiveness. If that’s how Jesus walks, then Christian discipleship is more than learning ideas; it’s learning awareness. We talk about the Holy Spirit, the kingdom of God here and now, and why “God is with me” changes the way we handle stress, temptation, joy, and everyday decisions.Then we make it practical. We share how the spiritual discipline of solitude trains us to recognize God’s presence, how ordinary places like your car can become a space for ongoing conversation with Christ, and why the mindset matters: doing life with God instead of doing tasks for God. We also bring in Practicing the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence, plus simple tools like saying “Jesus is here” and setting a repeating phone reminder to re-center your mind.If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.
