About this episode

Scott Savage discusses the feeling of spiritual distance from God and how to reconnect through the stories in Judges.

What do you do when you know the right things about God, but He no longer feels real in your heart? What happens when faith becomes something you remember with your head, but no longer live with your whole life? In Week 2 of our series, In Their Own Eyes, Scott Savage continues through the book of Judges with Judges 3:7-31. Through the stories of Othniel, Ehud, and Shamgar, we see how God responds to a forgetful people who keep drifting away from Him. Israel forgets the Lord, worships false gods, falls into oppression, cries out for help, and again and again God sends a deliverer. This message, When You Know God but Don’t Feel Him, shows that rebellion often begins when God stops feeling real. But even when His people are unfaithful, God remains faithful. He sends reminders through ordinary people, unlikely deliverers, and even the tools already in our hands. Whether you feel spiritually distant, stuck in a season where faith feels more like information than reality, or unsure how God could use your ordinary life, this sermon is an invitation to remember who God is, what He has done, and how present He still is.
