Pastor Jay focuses on the theme of wholeness in Jesus and addresses the question of whether God feels distant. He explains that while, apart from Christ, we are indeed separated from God, Jesus’ sacrifice has removed this distance and reconciled us to the Father. Pastor Jay outlines two main problems that contribute to the perception of God's distance: failing to fully expose ourselves to Him and giving our devotion to other things instead of God. He encourages us to examine our lives, confess our struggles, and draw closer to God through prayer and community, emphasizing the importance of vulnerability and genuine relationship with Christ.
