In this episode of the Why Do Christians podcast, Mark sits down with Pastor Burt and Pastor Josh to talk about a topic many believers wrestle with but don’t always admit out loud: What if I’m hearing God wrong?

They unpack two big misunderstandings:

“If it’s really God, it will always be crystal clear.”

Using stories from Scripture, they show that God can speak, yet people still miss it—or mix it with their own desires, fears, and biases.

“If I get it wrong, I must be a false prophet.”

They explain the difference between a manipulative false prophet and a sincere Christian who simply makes a mistake, and why the New Testament leaves room for grace, growth, and learning when it comes to hearing God.

With personal stories and biblical insight, this episode invites you to approach God’s voice with reverence, community, and humility—without living in fear of messing it up.
