In this episode, we explore one of the most awe-inspiring truths about God: His transcendence. Drawing from A.W. Tozer’s Knowledge of the Holy, we reflect on the staggering reality that God exists far above and beyond His creation—utterly distinct, infinitely exalted, and completely independent of all He has made.

Tozer reminds us that while God is near to us in love and mercy, He is not like us. His thoughts are higher than our thoughts, His ways beyond our comprehension. God is not contained by space or time, and He cannot be measured by human standards. Yet, in His mercy, this transcendent God chooses to reveal Himself to us—inviting us to know Him, worship Him, and walk with Him.

Join us as we unpack what it means to serve a God who is both infinitely above us and intimately present. Discover how the transcendence of God confronts our pride, comforts our hearts, and reorients our lives around His majesty.

If you've ever felt like God was too big to care—or too far to reach—this conversation will remind you that the God who is beyond all things is also the God who draws near.
