Is God Really Silent? – S3E6
Today we talk about a question many people wrestle with: Is God ever really silent?
Josh and Caitlin explore how their understanding of God’s communication has developed over time. We share how becoming parents changed the way we view Heavenly Father’s love and patience. What once sounded like simple textbook phrases became deeply meaningful after going through real-life trials and disappointments.
We discuss how it’s easy to expect constant answers delivered quickly and easily, like an online order. But God doesn’t usually work that way. Instead, He often guides us through small moments, quiet impressions, scriptures, prayer, and the everyday experiences of life.
Caitlin shares personal stories about grief, recovery from a C-section, and seeing meaningful signs like butterflies and the number 711 as reminders of God’s individualized care. Josh talks about how hard seasons in business and life helped him cling more tightly to his testimony and to God’s grace.
The big message from this episode:
Even when you can’t hear God clearly, that doesn’t mean He has left you. Sometimes the quiet is part of the plan. Enduring means continuing forward in faith, giving effort, and trusting that none of our struggles are wasted.
