Have you ever felt far from God—even while reading your Bible, praying, serving, and going to church?
In this episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Drew and Tim tackle one of the most common struggles Christians face: feeling distant from God despite doing all the "right" things.
They explore why feelings aren't always facts, how unmet expectations can affect our relationship with God, and why spiritual dryness doesn't mean God has abandoned you. Through personal stories, biblical truth, and practical encouragement, they discuss how believers can remain faithful even when they don't feel God's presence.
This conversation covers:
• Why feelings should never override God's promises
• The danger of going through spiritual motions without heart engagement
• What Jesus taught about the Pharisees and religious performance
• How unmet expectations can create distance in our relationship with God
• Why consistency matters even when you don't feel inspired
• The role of prayer, Scripture, worship, fasting, and community during dry seasons
• How comparison can make you feel farther from God than you really are
• What to do when God feels silent
If you've ever wondered where God is in the middle of a difficult season, this episode is for you.
