God's Presence

Lara Rodin explores the intimate moments of leaving voicemails for God as a child, a metaphor for the desire to connect with the divine in a modern, seemingly distant relationship. This sermon delves into the duality of God's presence, asking if it is a distant entity accessible only in sacred spaces or a close, personal presence we can encounter daily, challenging us to find God's dwelling place among us and within our interactions.
