Revealing the Father

Never Abandoned: God With Us and In Us | John 14:8-21

Ever feel spiritually orphaned? Like you're walking through life alone, wondering where God actually is?

Tim Anderson tackles Philip's simple but profound request: "Lord, show us the Father." What Jesus says next changes everything about how we understand God's presence in our lives.

Drawing from his own experience from losing both parents, Tim unpacks how Jesus promises we will never be abandoned. From Moses longing to see God's glory to the fulfillment of Ezekiel and Jeremiah's prophecies, we see God's plan unfold, not a distant deity, but a deeply personal Father who sent His Spirit to live in us.

It's the promise that sustained martyrs like St. Florian facing the flames and Thomas Cranmer under persecution. It's the same promise that carries us through hospital rooms, dark nights on the beach, and seasons when we feel spiritually dry.

If you've ever questioned whether God is really there, or struggled to feel His presence in hard seasons: you're not alone. The Spirit lives in you. And because Jesus lives, you also live.
