WHAT'S HAPPENING @ NEW LIFE
HEARING GOD: LIVING ATTENTIVE TO THE GOD WHO SPEAKS
We've all heard of angels and loud voices resounding from the heavens, but most of us have never actually heard God speak audibly or sat down and talked with an angel over nachos. It seems you can't turn three pages without seeing God talking to someone in the Bible, but does that kind of stuff still happen today? Often people describe the voice of God like a prompting or a whisper, but in a world that shouts for our attention how are we supposed to make out which "voice" belongs to God. The entire series is available at the Resource Center.
