128 Access To God

As believers, we have access to God's grace 365 days a year because of Christ's sacrifice on the Cross. This allows us to come to God in whatever situation we are in, whether it be times of joy or pain. In today’s episode, Jen and Jeff discuss the scope of this access, and how we often take this access for granted by only seeing God when we need Him. They encourage us to live our lives in a way that gives us full access to God at all times, 365 days a year. Tune in to find out more!

Quotes:

"Many times we only see God when we need Him. So when you're celebrating good times do it with God. God desires our friendship and our relationship. And he's not just our problem solver. Be a true friend of God and know that God wants you to walk with him." - Pastor Jeff Cranston
