Do you feel like God is far away?
Do you keep trying to pray more, worship harder, or feel something just to “get closer”?
What if the gospel says you’re already as close to God as you’ll ever be — fully united with Christ?

In this episode of Grace Uncensored, we confront one of the biggest Christian double-talks:
➡️ “We’re one with Christ… but we still need to get closer to God.”
Scripture tells a different story — you're not working toward closeness, you're living from union.

🌿 What You’ll Hear Today:

  • Why striving to “get closer to God” keeps believers stuck in guilt and exhaustion.
  • The powerful truth of 1 Corinthians 6:17 — You are one spirit with the Lord.
  • What it really means that Christ lives in you (Colossians 1:27, Galatians 2:20).
  • Why the New Covenant invites us to rest in union, not chase after it.
  • An illustration you’ll never forget — the kid in the backseat asking, “Are we close yet?” when he’s already in his Father’s car.
