What if the biggest obstacle to hearing God's voice isn't that He's silent—but that life is just so loud?

In this message, Pastor Nate reminds us that God is not reluctant to speak. He has always been speaking, and He invites us to slow down, open His Word, and make space to listen.

Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice." That's not a promise for a select few—it's an invitation for every follower of Him.

So here's a question to consider this week: What is one small change you could make to slow down and truly listen as you read Scripture?

If this encourages you, we'd love for you to hear the full message. Listen to Pastor Nate's message from August 2, 2026 on our Media page (link in bio) or on your favorite podcast platform by searching Connect Church Lawrence.

Some days it's easy to feel close to God. Other days... not so much. 🤍

The good news is that God's faithfulness doesn't depend on how we feel. His promises are still true because His character never changes. He is always trustworthy, always faithful, and always keeps His word. 🙌

So if your feelings have been all over the place lately, let this encourage you today: you can rest in the integrity of the One who never changes. ✨

"I do not always feel His presence, but God's promises do not depend upon my feelings, they rest upon His integrity." — R.C. Sproul

In this message, Pastor John explores what it means to read the Bible not only to understand it, but to encounter Jesus through it. While studying Scripture matters, God desires more than information—He invites us into communication and relationship with Him through His Word.

Scripture was never meant to engage only our minds or only our emotions. When we approach the Bible with both our heads and our hearts, we begin to hear God's voice in fresh and meaningful ways.

Grief can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to walk through it alone. ❤️

Connect Church is offering GriefShare this fall—a Christ-centered program designed to help you navigate the emotions, questions, and challenges that come after the loss of a loved one.

Beginning Thursday, August 20 | 6:30–8:30 PM in the Garage Door Room at Connect, this 13-week class will be led by Cavin Willits. Through video teaching, group discussion, and a provided workbook, GriefShare offers biblical encouragement and practical guidance from trusted pastors and counselors.

Whether your loss is recent or you’re still processing grief from years ago, you are welcome here. This is a safe place to find support, hope, and healing alongside others who understand.

Before the noise of the week fills your mind, take a few moments to slow down and open God's Word.

Read the verse of the day in your Bible app or spend time with a passage that stands out to you. Don't rush through it—pause, reflect, and listen.

God's Word is more than something to study. It's an invitation to know Him more deeply. The God who knows you, loves you, and walks with you still speaks today.

What might He want to say to you this week?
