Summary
What if God actually wants to talk to you today?
Not in a dramatic, spiritual, churchy way—but in the middle of your real life. In this episode, Jerrad explores the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19 and the surprising way God speaks—not through wind, fire, or earthquakes, but through a gentle whisper.
If your life feels loud, chaotic, or overwhelming, this episode is a simple invitation to slow down, listen, and rediscover the quiet voice of God.
Practice for today:
Take one minute of silence and ask God, “What do You want to say to me today?”
Because strong families begin with healed men.

| 0:30.9 | something that's been floating around in my head a while. Do you think God wants to talk to you today? |
| 0:36.1 | And I'm not saying that in like a super spiritual |
| 0:38.7 | kind of Christianese, fluffy kind of way. I mean it seriously. Like if God wanted to say something |
| 0:46.2 | to you, if God could talk to you like I'm talking to you right now, do you think that he would |
| 0:50.0 | have something to say to you? You think he would want to say something to you. You kind of take that a |
| 0:54.9 | step further and then you ask yourself, do you think God wants to talk to you every single day? And again, |
| 1:00.0 | I'm not trying to be like churchy and fluffy and give you like the Sunday school answer. Like, |
| 1:03.3 | of course, God wants to talk to you every day. He's your best friend. But I mean that like quite |
| 1:06.9 | literally. Based on what we know in God's reputation, does God want to talk to you today? |
| 1:11.9 | And does he want to talk to you every day? And if it's true, if that's true, if we just assume, |
| 1:16.7 | yes, God actually has something to say to you every day and he wants to interact with you daily, |
| 1:21.6 | if that would be true, then is it possible that you may have missed things that he's wanted to say to you in the past |
| 1:29.3 | because you weren't listening? And I'm asking that for myself. If God wants to talk to me and he has |
| 1:34.7 | something to say to me, is it possible I've missed something he's wanted to say because I wasn't |
