God is Present Week 6In this message from our Discovering the God Jesus Knows series, we confront the subtle but powerful idea that God is distant, uninvolved, or indifferent. While deism teaches that God created the world and stepped back, Scripture tells a very different story. From “Immanuel — God with us” in Matthew 1 to Jesus’ promise of the Holy Spirit in John 16, the Bible consistently reveals a God who moves toward us, dwells among us, and remains present in our lives. Even when we don’t feel it, even when circumstances confuse us, Hebrews reminds us of God’s promise: “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” If you’ve ever wondered whether God truly cares about your everyday struggles, this message is for you — because the good news is simple and powerful: God is not distant. God is present.
