In a world where distraction has become normal, clarity has become rare.

In Week One of our new series Airplane Mode, Pastor Chris Hoyt invites us to slow down and intentionally create space to hear God. This message reframes prayer and fasting not as religious pressure or spiritual performance, but as ancient practices that wake us up to how close God already is.

You’ll discover:

• Why prayer is less about talking and more about listening

• How Jesus modeled attentiveness through withdrawal, not burnout

• Why fasting is about space, not punishment

• How the wilderness produces clarity, not weakness

• What it looks like to practice presence in a distracted world

As Journey Church begins a 21-day season of prayer and fasting, this message sets the foundation for a year shaped by attentiveness, intimacy, and clarity.

God is not far.
He’s already here.
