‘This thing that I fought for years, to try and start to receive, this love that God has for me if I could go to you and just unlock it, just click and bang, and it would just be the best, and I can’t do it and I hate that’.

Andrew Curtis honestly shares of how he struggled to receive God’s love but now that he has received it, he realizes his Christian journey is more about God finding him.

Hi, I’m Lizzie Oakes, and in 'Where Do You Find God' I talk with my guests about the ways they encounter God in their everyday lives.

Acts C 17 v 27 says “God intended that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us”.

God is close to all of us, what is often missing is our awareness of his presence. 

One of the joys of making this podcast is that as I ask my guests about the ways they encounter God, often right in front of me, they start to encounter him. Suddenly, their tone of voice changes, their speech slows right down, and a look of understanding comes across their face. 

As the scripture promises, if we reach out for him, we will find him.   

Tune in each Wednesday at 4.30pm and listen live to Where Do You Find God on yoursanctuary.nz
