How do you make room for God in the middle of a busy life? What if spiritual growth begins with one simple, faithful response to his grace?
In “Make Room for Grace,” Pastor Evan Ryder explores how spiritual practices help us remain connected to Jesus and receive God’s sustaining grace. Drawing from John 15:4–5 and Jude 1:24–25, this episode of Rediscovering Faith invites you to move from good intentions toward a consistent, life-giving relationship with Christ.
Jesus describes himself as the vine and his followers as the branches. Our growth depends on remaining in him. Through Scripture, prayer, worship, Communion, service, and honest Christian friendships, we make room to listen and respond to the One who gives us life.
In this episode:
• Explore what Jesus means when he calls us to remain in him.
• Discover how spiritual disciplines serve as means of grace.
• Consider why ordinary, consistent practices matter—even when they don’t feel extraordinary.
• Choose one practical step toward a deeper daily relationship with God.
Faithful Christians still experience grief, temptation, distraction, and exhaustion. Spiritual practices help us depend on God within those circumstances. We approach them with openness and trust, knowing our worth rests in his love.
Scripture: Jude 1:24–25; John 15:4–5
