Tired of the constant hustle? Always running, striving, and chasing after the "next big thing"—the answers, the blessings, the advancement? You're not alone.

In this episode, we explore a profound and surprisingly simple truth: God is already here. We often look for a complicated, high-productivity answer, but the simplest path is a practice found through the Gate of Peace.

This isn't some magnificent structure you have to hike a thousand miles to find. It's an internal doorway accessed by a single, revolutionary key: awareness.

Discover how stepping into awareness helps you stop chasing and stop striving. The truth isn't "out there"—it's here. Learn about the moment-by-moment practice of awareness that is the simplest path to God's presence, and the one excellent key you need to walk through the gate of peace.

Ready to drop the striving and find the presence you've been looking for? Tune in!

This is a new series of piano music and spoken words to draw us into the peace and presence of God. Byron goes live as he plays the piano with fresh improvisations and then focusing on various aspects of the presence of God.

His desire is for you, as the listener, to spend a few minutes applying these live moments in your day to bring not only the peace of God but to enter His presence moment by moment.

Byron was deeply encouraged by the letters of Brother Lawrence, a fourteenth-century monk who practiced the presence of God. We can learn from the ancient saints and draw close to God in this very minute.

Join Byron here on PopUp Cafe for more moments of live interaction with the presence of God.
