From Silence to Strength | Francis Chan

About this episode

Francis Chan discusses the importance of pausing to listen to God amidst life's distractions.

How much would you give to hear the audible voice of God? What would you be willing to set aside for a few hours? What lengths would you go to if you knew you could have a face-to-face conversation with Him? This access to God is available right here and right now. All you have to do is… stop. In this teaching, Francis reminds us of the heart of our Heavenly Father - to be with us, to forgive us, to bless us more than we can imagine - and the beauty of pausing, waiting on Him, and listening. He also addresses the subtle distractions shaping this generation - the fear of missing out, the pressure to stay informed, and the addiction to constant movement. If you’ve felt anxious, overwhelmed, or spiritually dry, consider this an invitation to return to what you were made for.
