The Noise Around Us
Oct 18, 2026 • Pastor John Keller
How can you hear God when your mind won't slow down, and life never seems to get quiet?
Sometimes the problem isn't that God isn't speaking. It's that our lives are too loud to hear Him. We live surrounded by constant noise—notifications, opinions, endless information, worries, and the thoughts that keep running through our minds. In 1 Kings 19, Elijah encounters powerful wind, an earthquake, and fire, but God speaks to him through a gentle whisper. This message explores how the noise around us and within us can make it difficult to recognize God's voice. Stillness isn't about escaping everything happening in our lives. It's about creating space to remember that God is still God, even in the middle of it all.
