Trusting in a God We Can't Touch - with Teasi Cannon.

Have you ever wished you could have just five minutes with Jesus physically present? So often I've ached for just one big hug or one good long look into His physical eyes because I truly believe it would set everything right. I know I'd feel so much peace, security, and overwhelming love.

All the troubles of this world would grow dim.

Even though Jesus doesn't magically appear in my living room,

He has promised that He'll be with me ... and you ... always. In this episode of True Comfort, I share some truth about God's presence that encourages me in moments when I wonder where He is. I hope this will encourage you, as well.

The trauma of losing a sibling to addiction during the holidays.

Watching a parent fade away through Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

Why the Holy Spirit feels mysterious and how to identify His fruit.

Jesus’ words to Thomas and what they mean for us who haven't seen, yet believe.
