Send us Fan MailYour phone can track you everywhere, but that doesn’t mean you feel seen. We start with a laugh about landlines, untied shoes, and summer slipping toward back-to-school, then we stumble into a bigger question that hits right in the chest: what if you’re not the one chasing God at all? What if God is the seeker, and He’s been looking for you the whole time? We talk through the moment that sparked it all, flipping through childhood photos and noticing how a parent naturally stands close, watches, guards, and guides. That becomes a lens for Scripture: God calling “Where are you?” in Genesis, Jesus’ mission in Luke 19:10, the hope inside exile in Jeremiah 29:11, the Shepherd who searches in Ezekiel 34, and the reminder in John 15:16 that we don’t choose God first. We also wrestle with the stuff we try to use as substitutes for God, the habits and distractions that never quite fill the hole in the heart. Along the way we share a personal story of God’s timing in marriage, unpack why struggle can actually form us instead of crush us, and use analogies like getting lost at the county fair and Rocky finally trusting Mickey to see the point. We end with Revelation 3:19-20 and the idea that discipline can be love, not rejection, plus a closing prayer for gratitude and strength in hard seasons. If this conversation helps you rethink what it means to be found, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more people can hear it.
