As believers, we know the Bible tells us that God is with us at all times. And yet there are "dry seasons" when we don't feel the closeness of His presence at all.

Today's episode is part of an ongoing series titled "Ask a Theologian" — conversations with Proverbs 31 Ministries' Director of Theological Research, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, and Content Manager for Lysa TerKeurst, Shae Hill. Together, Joel and Shae will give you theological insight and practical takeaways.
