## Resource

In this powerful episode, we explore what it really means to be “born again”—moving from a church-centered life of routines and checklists to a deeply personal, Christ-centered relationship with the Savior. Even when we’re doing all the “right” things—attending church, praying, studying scriptures—many still feel a lingering distance from God. Why? Because closeness isn’t found by doing more, but by removing what’s keeping us far. Discover five practical keys to genuine intimacy with God: • Dropping the mask and praying with raw honesty • Learning to sit in silence and listen • Turning scriptures into a living conversation • Pursuing obedience from love, not performance • Choosing connection daily, even when you don’t feel like it If you’ve been thirsting for more but feel stuck in spiritual routines, this episode will help you rediscover your first love and experience the fruit of the Tree of Life. The Savior is closer than you think—He’s just waiting for you to draw near.
