Episode Summary:

How does God reveal himself to you during simple moments in life? God moments are real and occur all around us all the time. The ability to recognize a God moment differentiates between an average and an extraordinary day. Pastor Gale Kragt and I talk about recognizing God moments in our lives.

Quotables from the episode:

• Learn to see all the opportunities that are around you daily and be encouraged to step out in faith.
• If we want to recognize God moments in our lives, pray and ask God to make you more sensitive to those experiences around us.
• Experiencing God moments often comes as a result of looking for the opportunity to be a blessing.
• Practice stepping out in obedience to God—it feels risky but without the obedience, we don’t see the blessing of participating in God Moments.
