Wheeler...Beyond Sunday | Ep 10: We Can't Hide

In this episode, Amanda, James, Sarah, and Jill discuss the third sermon in Pastor Ginger's "Prayer Pressure Problems" series: "We Can't Hide."

Drawing from Psalm 139, the group explores a fascinating Cambridge study about how preschool children believe they can't be seen if they don't make eye contact—and how we as adults do the same thing with God. They open up about times they've tried to hide from God due to shame, anger, grief, or fear of disappointing Him.

In this episode:

• Why we avoid keeping company with God when we're struggling
• The pressure to be "perfect Christians" and how it affects our prayer life
• Personal stories about mental health, loss, and trying to hide brokenness from God
• Sarah's powerful plant analogy about what grows in the light vs. what we keep in darkness
• Why God already knows our secrets and loves us anyway
• What to say to someone who's afraid to pray

The conversation reminds us that we are always in God's presence, fully known and fully loved—and that there's nothing we could do or be that would take that love away.

Scripture: Psalm 139:1-12, 23-24

Join us as we discuss what it means to stop hiding and start keeping company with the God who's been waiting for us all along.
