The Kingdom at Hand, Part I: Distance Healing and the Gift of Presence

Episode 4 - Recorded 4/23/2025 In this episode of Love for the Unseen God, hosts Josh and Geoff reflect on the struggle between self-focus and becoming truly other-focused. They share how God uses everyday moments—whether on an airplane or in a checkout line—to draw us into love and connection. Josh and Geoff share stories about prayer in unexpected places: a simple blessing on an airplane, or a quiet prayer in a far-off land for someone in need that actually brings relief. These moments point to prayer as resting with the heart rather than striving with the mind, echoing the Roman centurion who trusted Jesus to heal at a distance. Together they explore how stereotypes can turn people away from faith, while authentic compassion can ease suffering without words. With humility, they wrestle with paradoxes of life, sin, and God's transforming love—reminding us that the Kingdom is always at hand.
