In this conversation, author and pastor Dr. Richard Blackaby shares insights from his new study, Experiencing God in Everyday Life: A Journey Toward Spiritual Maturity. Building on the timeless message of Experiencing God, Richard explains why spiritual maturity isn't reserved for mountaintop moments, mission trips, or church retreats. Instead, it's cultivated as we learn to recognize God's presence and activity in the ordinary moments that fill our days.Along the way, Richard shares personal stories about his father, Dr. Henry Blackaby, practical habits that help us hear God's voice, and encouraging reminders that God is often speaking more than we realize. Whether you're longing to grow deeper in your faith, hoping to become more spiritually attentive, or simply wondering what the next step looks like in your walk with Christ, this conversation offers biblical wisdom and practical encouragement to help you experience God—not just occasionally, but every day.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What does it mean to feel God's love through another person?In this episode of From God to Jerry to You, Jerry L. Martin reflects on an early moment in his relationship with God, when he was asked to “enter My heart.” The request frightened him, and when he asked for help, God answered: “Let Abigail love you. Feel My love through her.”That experience leads Jerry to explore how divine love becomes real through romantic love, family love, friendship, intimacy, tenderness, and human connection. Jerry considers the transcendent quality of love, the presence of God within our closest relationships, and the possibility that loving others is one of the deepest ways we become partners with God.Listen for a thoughtful reflection on God's love, spiritual intimacy, and the sacred power of loving and being loved.Get the books:Radically Personal: God and Ourselves in the New Axial AgeGod: An Autobiography, As Told to a Philosopher***Continue the conversation with Ultimate Questions on calling, divine guidance, and how we recognize what is ours to do:https://substack.com/@ultimatequestions***Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare: questions@godanautobiography.comUltimate Questions SubstackGet the books: God: An Autobiography, Radically PersonalShare Your Story | Site | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube

Speaker: Pastor NickSynopsis: This morning we continue our "Fingerprints" series which dives into our denominational core values. Last week we began with the history that created our denomination and today we dive into our first core value: Experiencing God's Love & Grace. Love and grace are foundational aspects of our relationship with God and we'll explore this core value by looking at the life of Moses through four filters about God this morning: active, relational, saves and transforms.

We live in an outrage culture. Social media thrives on anger, and people are more divided than ever. Anger feels justified, but it's exhausting, isolating, and ultimately destructive.

What does it truly mean when we say God is love? This profound exploration of 1 John 4:7-11 takes us beyond sentimental notions into the transformative reality of divine love. We discover that authentic Christian love isn't something we manufacture through effort or willpower—it flows directly from experiencing God's love ourselves. The passage reminds us that we are beloved before we are called to love others, a crucial truth that changes everything. When John writes that whoever loves has been born of God and knows God, he's speaking of experiential knowledge, not mere intellectual understanding. This is ginosko—a deep, personal encounter with God's love that fundamentally transforms who we are. The most striking revelation comes in understanding that God's love was made manifest at the cross, where Christ became the propitiation for our sins, absorbing the wrath we deserved. This isn't abstract theology—it's the greatest demonstration of love in history. God didn't wait for us to deserve His love; He loved us first while we were still sinners. The challenge then becomes clear: having received such undeserved, sacrificial love, we are called to extend that same love to others. Not because they've earned it, but because that's how God loved us. The story of Zacchaeus beautifully illustrates this—Jesus didn't demand change before offering relationship; His love prompted transformation. This is the love we're invited to radiate in a world desperately needing to experience the genuine article.

JUN. 2, 2026Experiencing God's presence each day."My Presence will go with you." Ex 33:14 NKJVNicholas Herman was a cook in a monastery. He worried about whether or not he was truly saved. One day while looking at a tree, he realized the truth of the Psalmist's words-that it had to be rooted in something other and deeper than itself (see Ps 1:1-3). That day, he decided to make his life an experiment in what he called a "habitual, silent, secret conversation of the soul with God." He's known today by the new name given to him by his friends: Brother Lawrence. He remained obscure throughout his life and spent the rest of his days in the monastery kitchen. But the people around him found that rivers of living water flowed out of him that made them want to know God the way he did. "The good brother found God everywhere," one of them wrote, "as much while he was repairing shoes as while he was praying with the community!" After Brother Lawrence died, his friends put together a book of his letters and conversations. It is called The Practice of the Presence of God, and it is thought to be one of the most widely read books of the last four centuries. This short-order cook has outsold many popular contemporary novelists, and his book is still on best-seller lists. Brother Lawrence said: "The most holy and necessary practice in our spiritual life is the presence of God. That means finding constant pleasure in His divine company, speaking humbly and lovingly with Him in all seasons, at every moment, without limiting the conversation in any way."Experiencing God's presence each day The presence of GodShare This DevotionalSend us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

373 – Have you experienced God's redemptive grace in your life?What did that feel like? How did it transform your life?One of the most often quoted verses in the Bible is from Chapter 2 of EphesiansFor it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—(Ephesians 2:8  NIV)But if you talk to enough people, it's pretty obvious there are lots of different definitions or perspectives on what grace is and how it works in our lives.And there are different aspects of grace, just like there are many facets in a diamond.My guest today is Jennifer Sakata, an ordained pastor in the Presbyterian Church USA. We're going to talk specifically about God's redemptive grace. This is the grace that redeems us from our mistakes, the sins we've committed, and all the ways we've been hurt over the years. In this episode:God is writing a story in your life and the life of everyoneThe connection  between grace and our relationship to GodWhat is real grace for real life?The one thing you need to acknowledge to be able to receive God's graceHow to create space for grace to show up in your lifeThe difference between “on the ground grace” and grace as a theological conceptThe Psalm you should read if you feel far away from GodWhat happened in her mom's life after praying for her for 40+ yearsWhat does gratitude do that helps  us receive more grace?∞∞∞∞∞∞∞SHOW NOTES: Full transcript and Bible quotes at thebiblespeakstoyou.com/373Text me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.

In a sense, you could say that the entire Bible is about God's desire to dwell with his people. Immanuel—God with us. Experiencing God's presence is what we were created for. And we are promised in Scripture that if we seek God, we will find Him. But how do we experience the presence of God when we don't see Him or feel like He's with us? Well, in this series of conversations with Dr. David Mathewson, the Discover the Word group explores how experiencing God's presence can be a regular practice and experience of God's people. And time In His Presence can transform, heal, and empower us. WAYS TO LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE:

Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme, “Best of 1 Peter.” Dr. Richard Blackaby joined us to explain how experiencing God begins with hearing His Word, responding in obedience, and building daily habits that lead to spiritual maturity. Dr. Blackaby is the President of Blackaby Ministries International and author of “Experiencing God in Everyday Life: A Journey Toward Spiritual Maturity.” We then had Dr. Andy Bannister join us to explain how believers can be prepared to share the hope of Christ with gentleness and respect, while listening well to those who believe differently. Dr. Bannister is the Director of Solas and the author of several books, including “How to Talk About Jesus Without Looking Like An Idiot.” We then opened up the phone lines to hear from our listeners. We posed the question, "Who did God use to help walk you into freedom in Christ?”You can hear the highlights of today’s program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

There is a difference between knowing about someone and actually knowing them. You can study a person for years. Memorize their habits. Learn their history. Analyze their words. Predict their behavior. And still never truly know them.Imagine a man who says, “I know everything about my wife.” He can tell you: her favorite food, where she grew up, what makes her laugh, her Enneagram number, her childhood wounds, and the exact date they met. But then imagine he has never: held her hand, cried with her, sat in silence with her, kissed her, laughed until they couldn't breathe, carried her grief, or felt theweight of her presence beside him into the wee hours of the morning. You would say: “You don't know her. You know information about her.”And I think this is how we have been formed…what to expect from a relationship with God. We have reduced knowing God to intellectual mastery. To concepts. To theology. To definitions. To podcasts. To debates. To sermons. To “content.” We can explain God…without ever experiencing Him.“It is not knowing much, but realizing and relishing things interiorly, that contents and satisfies the soul.” -IgnatiusWe know Greek words but not His nearness. We know doctrines but not communion. We know arguments, but it is without experience…The tragedy of modern Christianity is not that we know too little about God— it may be that we know too much about Him and too little with Him.Because throughout Scripture, people did not merely analyze God. They encountered Him.• Moses trembles before a burning bush.• David pours out tears in the night.• Isaiah collapses, undone in the temple.• John leans against Jesus' chest the night of His passion….• The early church shakes under the Spirit's power.Biblical faith was never merely intellectual assent. It was participation. Communion. Experience. Relationship.

We posed the question, "Who did God use to help walk you into freedom in Christ?”You can hear the highlights of today’s program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

In this episode we look at the biblical example of the Israelites who failed to enter into the Promised Land and reflect on what keeps us from occupying it in our own lives."The word crisis comes from a Greek word that means decision or judgment. A crisis of belief is not a calamity in your life but a turning point where you must make a decision. It is a situation that forces you to decide what you truly believe about God. The way you respond at this turning point will determine whether you become involved with God in something God-sized that only He can do or whether you will continue to go your own way and miss what He purposed for your life. This is not a one-time experience. It is a regular occurrence. The way you live your life is a testimony to what you believe about God" (Experiencing God).Scriptures referenced:Proverbs 17:32 Peter 1:3-4James 1:2-4Hebrews 12:5-11John 10:10John 15:1-5Romans 8:29Numbers 13-14Isaiah 26:3Psalm 56:3-4Joshua 13:1-7Judges 3:1-4Joshua 11:21-221 Samuel 17:4**CORRECTION**I slightly misquoted 2 Peter 1:3-4. Here is the verse: "His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire."BibliographyBlackaby, Henry, Richard Blackaby, and Claude King.

In this episode, Jim Van Gelderen challenges the common mindset of “seeing is believing” by presenting a biblical reality: in the Christian life, believing is seeing. Drawing from Scripture and personal illustration, he explains how faith opens our eyes to the unseen spiritual realm—where our identity in Christ and fellowship with God are already real. This episode calls believers to stop waiting for visible proof and instead step into the reality God has already declared. Topics Discussed The contrast between “seeing is believing” and “believing is seeing” Living for the seen (temporal) vs. unseen (eternal) realm Thomas and the danger of requiring sight before faith Experiencing real fellowship with God in the unseen realm The meaning of being “in Christ” (Romans 6, Ephesians 1–2, 2 Corinthians 5) The biblical concept of “reckoning” as an act of faith Faith as spiritual eyesight How believing God's Word leads to real spiritual experience and victory Key Takeaways The unseen realm is not less real—it is more real and eternal. Faith is how we “see” spiritual truth and experience God's reality. Your identity in Christ is already true, whether you feel it or not. “Reckoning” is choosing to agree with God's Word regardless of emotions. Fellowship with God is a real, experiential relationship in the spiritual realm. Victory, joy, and transformation flow from believing what God has said.
