Welcome to the Faith First Podcast, I’m Jonathan Gouthier, a pastor here at First Church in Torrington, Connecticut. Let me start by asking if you have an issue with paying attention? I know I do sometimes and usually it’s when something important is about to happen. I get distracted very easily. So, if you are like me, this is a good message for you to tune in and hear today. So, let’s both listen in on the message by our Lead Pastor Steve Darr on Don’t get distracted.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why we are being conditioned to distraction
• The forms distraction come upon us
• How to deter distractions from our lives
• Whish distractions are good for us

Our attention often runs to what’s important to us. So distraction can reveal what lies within our hearts. At the deepest level, we are distracted because we are fallen people who battle with the flesh, our sinful natures. In seeking to remain focused on what is important, we can run to God’s word that tells us to walk by the Spirit.

We’re so glad you listen in today and hope that the distractions you face will subside when you get into God’s word. If you’ve enjoyed this episode, hit the subscribe button below to stay updated on our latest conversations. Until next time, remain focused on the plans God has for you faith first.
