Is your summer filled with people—but lacking peace? Whether your days are packed with family, vacations, social events, or just nonstop noise, it can feel impossible to find quiet moments with God. But what if connection with Him wasn’t only found in solitude?

In this episode, we’re talking about how to hear God in the middle of full, loud, relational seasons—and how even crowded spaces can become sacred spaces.

You'll hear:

• How God can speak to you while you're with others

• Ways to cultivate spiritual awareness in community settings

• A fresh perspective on why certain people might be triggering you—and what God might be revealing

• Simple, practical ways to carve out quiet with God (yes, even with kids around!)

• Why the people in your life might be God’s invitation—not a block—to deeper connection with Him

Whether you're hosting barbecues, chasing toddlers, or traveling with extended family, this episode will encourage you: God is speaking, even here. And you don’t have to wait for fall to reconnect with Him.
