How Thirsty Are You?

from Made For More Podcast Hosted by Samuel Collins

Most Christians today are spiritually malnourished but don't even know it. We've become content with spiritual "snacking"—quick prayers, rushed devotionals, Sunday services—while our souls slowly starve for genuine encounter with God. This episode confronts the uncomfortable reality: when did you last feel so desperately hungry for God that you couldn't focus on anything else? Drawing from David's deer-panting prayers and Jesus's agonizing intercession, we explore what authentic spiritual hunger looks like and why the modern church has lost it. Discover how the flesh systematically kills our appetite for God, why comfortable Christianity is spiritually deadly, and practical steps to cultivate the holy desperation that transforms prayer from duty to lifeline. We'll examine the biblical examples of believers who hungered for God with life-altering intensity and challenge you to honest self-examination about your own spiritual priorities. This isn't comfortable listening—it's a wake-up call for anyone settling for spiritual mediocrity. If your spiritual life feels routine or powerless, this episode reveals what you've been missing and how to pursue the soul-satisfying relationship with God you were created for.
