About this episode
This episode explores the reasons we hide from God and the freedom found in confession and His mercy.
When we hide from God, we miss His heart. From the garden to our own lives, fear, control, and mistrust cause us to cover up rather than come clean. Yet Scripture reveals a God who seeks, restores, and freely forgives. This message explores why we hide, the coverings we use to protect ourselves, and the freedom that comes when we step into the light of God’s mercy. True joy is not found in concealment, but in confession and the compassion of a God who becomes our safe hiding place.
