Murder is No Better Than Scrolling

from Southside Church · host southsidelife.com

What if the reason you can't hear God isn't that he's stopped speaking? What if it's just the noise?Most of us aren't living dramatically sinful lives. But many of us have quietly let our phones, our screens, and the constant buzz of distraction fill every quiet moment we have. And in those moments, God is trying to reach us.This message takes an honest look at the habits and patterns that keep us from going deeper with God. Drawing from C.S. Lewis's Screwtape Letters, the story of Elijah, and the words of Jesus in Romans 12 and Revelation 3, this is a gentle but honest wake-up call. Not to feel guilty. But to get free.The life Jesus offers is not a distracted one. It's deep, present, and full. And it starts with the courage to put down what's keeping us from it.
