Podcasts about presence of god

God's power was certainly manifest in the life of Moses. In this episode of The Faith Explained, we see how Moses is saved through water, not in a basket, but in an ark, which prefigures how he leads God's people to salvation through the Red Sea.

On today's episode of the Faith Explained, Cale talks about heroines in the Bible who many people have never heard of: the Hebrew midwives who saved the male children from certain death. Pharaoh tries to strike fear and terror into the hearts of the people, but they strike the fear of God into Pharaoh.

Cale discusses the importance of knowing God. Pharaoh has forgotten the God of Joseph and begins to persecute and enslave the people of God. How does God set them free and reveal Himself to Pharaoh and his people? Find out on this episode of the Faith Explained.

On today’s Faith Explained, Cale begins to take a look at the text of Exodus. God has to establish who He is because to His people, He is the God who wasn’t there. Why are they in slavery, and why hasn’t God answered them? Why is God not acting in their lives as He did in the lives of the patriarchs? God has to reveal who He is and who Moses is.

Cale looks at the question of who wrote the Book of Exodus. Was it Moses or just traditions derived from Moses, or does it even matter, because isn’t it true that God Himself is the author of Scripture? Cale discusses this and what kind of history Exodus is.

In this episode of The Faith Explained, Cale continues his series on the Book of Exodus, focusing on the power and presence of God. God shows His power in getting the Israelites out of Egypt, but then He has to reveal Himself to His people.

We're not just a church. We're a Family.Our Vision is clear, simple, and unique. Our vision is Jesus in you. Our vision is for the people of God to have a faith that holds them. The kind of faith that vanquishes doubt, verifies identity, and voraciously contends for inner peace. A faith that removes the past, clarifies the present, and breathes life into the future. Our vision is the Kingdom of God built within the people of this obscure, yet mighty generation. A kingdom so great that its purpose destroys the common lack of self worth. A kingdom that sharpens the eyes, tenses the muscles, and readies itself for the battle against darkness. A Kingdom that brings purpose and healing to those who have failed more than succeeded, who are sinners more than saints, and who have known more pain than pleasure. Our vision is to challenge the weak and unproductive church of our day. To step beyond those who are religiously immature and search out those who for their love for Christ cannot be offended. Our hope is to raise warriors instead of those who think God only exists to keep bad things from happening. To raise those who know that following Christ means suffering loss yet gaining all things. Our vision is clear, simple, and unique…. It is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

In Week 1 of the Gospel People series, we begin by exploring the heart of Gospel culture through the blessing found in Numbers 6:22–27. This message reminds us that Gospel culture is what we are after—and joy sits at its very center. Biblical joy is more than a feeling; it is the assurance that God is glad to be with His people. For weary sinners, this is exactly what we experience when we encounter the face of Jesus: welcome, grace, and deep, soul-level joy. This sermon sets the foundation for a community shaped by the Gospel and marked by joy in the presence of God.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

What if the most powerful Being in the universe chose to be your shepherd—up close, hands-on, and fiercely protective? We walk line by line through Psalm 23 to show how Yahweh's care is not abstract theology but daily bread: green pastures when you're depleted, still waters when your heart runs hot, and restored soul when your orientation slips. “I shall not want” becomes a bold claim of contentment, not because life is tidy, but because the Shepherd is near and attentive.We trace the faithful paths God lays before us—the real-life tracks of righteousness that are often anything but symmetrical. And we face the valley of the shadow of death without flinching. The text shifts from “He” to “You,” and we linger on that relational turn: in the dark, the presence of God becomes personal, not theoretical. With the Shepherd's rod and staff, protection is both defense and rescue. Then comes the surprise: a table in the presence of enemies. Instead of waiting for the danger to disappear, the Shepherd hosts a feast right in the valley, anointing our heads and filling our cups to overflowing while wolves still watch.We end with pursuit—goodness and mercy chasing us all our days—and with a promise that stretches beyond the grave. The anchor of it all is Jesus, the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for the sheep and the Lamb who was slain so we could dwell in God's house forever. If your heart keeps whispering “Jesus and…,” this conversation is a gentle but firm call back to “Jesus is enough.” Join us, reflect on where you've seen His care, and share the moment you realized the Shepherd was closer than you thought. If this spoke to you, subscribe, leave a review, and send it to someone walking through a valley today.

For 11 January 2026, The Baptism of the Lord, based on Acts 10:34-38

In this episode of The Faith Explained, Cale begins a series on the Book of Exodus: The power and presence of God. Getting His people out of Egypt was only half of the story. What happens after that is God reveals who He really is.

In this episode, Pastor Jason Polk delves into the Gospel of John, focusing on the themes of healing and faith. He explores the story of a man healed by Jesus at the pool of Bethsaida, emphasizing the importance of seeking miracles and rest in the presence of God rather than through human efforts. Pastor Polk challenges listeners to recognize the personal pursuit of Jesus in their lives, encouraging a deeper relationship with God beyond just seeking blessings. The episode concludes with a reflection on communion, highlighting its significance as a symbol of dependence, intimacy, and hope in the Christian faith.

Listen to this week's sermon, Vision: Called into Communion preached by Rev. Benjamin Kandt from 2 Timothy 2:1-13.

God's presence isn't something we wait to feel—it's a reality we learn to live from. In this message, Pastor John Carter equips believers with practical, time-tested habits to sharpen their awareness of God within them, especially in storms, setbacks, and seasons of doubt. When you anchor your faith in truth, your words, worship, and daily choices begin to carry the weight of heaven.

In this final message of the Rejoice series, Pastor Jim teaches from Luke 2 and explores the angelic announcement to the shepherds, showing how the glory of God should evoke great fear—yet through Jesus, that fear gives way to great joy and peace on earth. He reminds us that God's holiness is overwhelming and unapproachable, like lightning that should consume us, but in Jesus, that immense power is made near and safe, wrapped in flesh and laid in a manger. Jim challenges listeners not to grow numb to the miracle of God's presence, but to respond with awe, rejoicing, and renewed peace. Just as the shepherds were invited into joy and Mary treasured all these things in her heart, we are invited to behold the Savior, prepare room for Him, and let our hearts melt before the one who brings peace to those on whom His favor rests.

Paul Axton preaches: In this Christmas Sermon the role of presence ("God with us") and absence is traced in Scripture as the primary theme fulfilled in Christ; a theme also recognized in postmodern philosophy.

When one is in the presence of God, it is then that they can hear the voice of God and understand the truth and be assured they are right about the Lord Jesus Christ.

Pastor David and Kurt sit down with special guest and LSC alum Ryan Romeo (now at New City Church) for a reflective conversation on hearing God's voice, weighing prophetic words, and learning to walk faithfully with the Spirit amid uncertainty, suffering, and renewal. 

In the Incarnation, the Infinite God becomes finite, limited, even small.  The Word is made flesh and begins his earthly life as an infant, as a little thing.  In the spiritual life, little things are also a dwelling place of God.  Little deeds, ordinary tasks, and everyday moments are all opportunities for us "to seek Christ, to find Christ, to love Christ", who is present but hidden in each circumstance.  

This sermon explores the deep longing for God's presence and the obstacles that obscure it. While we often associate God's presence with emotional experiences—tears or goosebumps—He is a constant reality. "Emmanuel" (God with us) is not merely a seasonal Christmas theme; it is the entire storyline of the Bible, from the Garden of Eden to the New Creation. God's relentless pursuit is defined by the promise: "I will be your God, you will be my people, and I will dwell in your midst." However, significant barriers often keep us from experiencing the face of God.Scripture ReferencesGenesis 3:1-13: The Fall, introducing disobedience and hiding.Psalm 51: David's plea not to be cast from God's presence.Isaiah 6:1-5: The confrontation between human sin and God's holiness.Luke 2:41-52: Jesus' parents losing Him by assuming He was in the crowd.Key PointsThe Narrative of Presence The Bible is bookended by God dwelling with man. It begins in Eden, moves through the Tabernacle and Temple, finds its fulfillment in Jesus, continues in the Church through the Holy Spirit, and culminates in the New Creation where no temple is needed.Seven Barriers to IntimacyDisobedience: Sin naturally creates distance.Hiding & Shame: Guilt says "I did something bad"; shame says "I am bad," causing us to hide from God.Lies: The enemy deceives us about God's character and the severity of sin.Holiness: God's unapproachable light exposes our darkness (Isaiah 6).Unforgiveness: Jesus teaches that holding grudges hinders our prayers.Busyness: Prosperity often leads us to forget the God who blessed us.Presumption: Like Mary and Joseph, we can travel days assuming Jesus is with us in the "religious crowd" without actually consulting Him.ConclusionDuring the holidays, we celebrate God being with us, but the pressing question is: Are we with Him? It is dangerous to assume His presence while living distracted, disobedient, or unforgiving lives. Jesus came to remove every barrier—sin, shame, and separation—so that we could once again walk face-to-face with God.Calls to ActionStop Hiding: Come out of isolation. Confess your sin and let God cover your shame.Check Your Assumptions: Don't assume God is with you just because you are at church. Actively seek His face daily.Release Unforgiveness: Let go of grudges that block your experience of God's nearness. Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI.

Exodus 34:1-10, 29-35; Matt Clegg, Associate Pastor at RMC; the second sermon in our Advent 2025 series, "Beholding God's Face."

Sunday, December 7, 2025Immanuel: The Presence of God…Genesis 3:8–13, 23–24 Do you love Christmas? I am not referring to the commercialism and worldly influence of the holiday.  I am talking about Christmas.  The truth behind theholiday.  The reality that was brought it into existence.   Jesus, the Son of God, intentionally came to this Earth as a baby to save us from our sin!  To reconcile, to purchase us back from death.  To show us the full extent of God's love for us!  Does that stir anything within you?  If for some reason it does not, then I pray that God will use the next few weeks to rekindle that fire that should be stoked every year at this time. 

During this Family Sunday, Pastor Jaden Henry preaches on living in the presence of God. He encourages us to live lives of walking in step with God's Spirit because God is always with us. We pray you are encouraged and challenged as you listen.

What could it look like to follow Jesus not only after the pain ends, but right in the midst of it? In this conversation, tenured psychology professor, author, and pastor Dr. Joshua Knabb helps us rethink the way we understand distress, challenging the modern tendency to pathologize every struggle. We explore the difference between pain and disorder, and why recognizing that distinction can open the door to greater agency, deeper compassion, and more grounded spiritual formation.  Together we also look at the contemplative practices that build resilience and intimacy with God: why they matter, what gets in the way, and how to start. Dr. Knabb shares his favorite go-to spiritual practice that help people meet Jesus right where they are, and why it's helpful. You'll hear how engaging these practices can transform not only your connection with God, but also the way you show up in relationships with others.

I'd love to say that the presence of God always feels joyful, intimate and enjoyable.  Sometimes, though, it feels like a HEAVY HAND. Yikes.This heavy hand is directionally moving us towards something: forgiveness.  It is the most important of life skills. Without the skill of repentance, your life will be an ongoing testimony to one wrecked relationship after another--including with the Almighty. Watch and admire with me what David does when he feels this heavy hand of God.Subscribe for more tomorrow.https://youtu.be/x44p1nopS4s

Stephen answers the charges against him. His life now hinges on words. The defense he gives is for Christ and not himself. In powerful, Spirit-borne words, Stephen sweepingly yet selectively expounds the Law of Moses to show that the true and better substance and glory of the presentation and presence of God are in His son, Christ Jesus.

The key to the victorious Christian life is living consciously under the ruling presence of Jesus Christ.  We know God's presences in our lives by praying, meditating on God's Word, and going through deep trials and depending on Him to carry us through. When God comes near. He removes our fear, redeems our lives, and reveals Himself. The answer to our sin is the nearness of God. The Lord is chiseling away at us to bring us to the place where we can be more usable and glorifying to Him.
