Psalm 145:18 — “The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth.”

In today’s episode, Ash digs into a verse we often skim but rarely unpack. God promises nearness — but He also gives a condition: call on Him in truth. So what does truth actually mean when life feels confusing, subjective, or overwhelming?

Ash explores why closeness with God doesn’t start with perfection — it starts with honesty. Real, humble, bring-your-whole-self honesty.

In this episode, Ash shares:


Why truth can feel subjective if we’re not anchored in Scripture


The danger of relying on feelings instead of God’s Word


How calling on God “in truth” requires honesty, humility, and repentance


How to come to God when you feel lost, tired, or spiritually flat


Why spending time in the Word helps you recognise God’s voice


The lie that God is distant — and what Psalm 145:18 reveals instead


Why God often feels closest when we finally stop pretending

If you’ve ever wondered why God feels far or how to hear Him clearly, this conversation will help you recenter your heart, rediscover truth, and draw near to the God who is already near to you.
