Message: “Always Present” from Pastor Chris Padiath

Where is God when He feels far away? In Week 3 of our Above All series, Pastor Chris explores the omnipresence of God through the story of Jonah. Jonah tried to run from God's call, found himself in overwhelming distress and later wrestled with anger, yet God's presence never left him. The same is true for us. God's presence is not dependent on perfect circumstances or perfect behaviour. Even in our lowest moments, we are never abandoned. He remains near and at work in our lives.

From Series: "Above All"

We often try to fit God into our own human understanding, shrinking Him down to our size. But the God of the Bible is infinitely more than we can imagine. Throughout September, we are unpacking the foundational attributes of God and will discover how who He is gives us peace for whatever we are going through.
