## Resource

Pastor Ryan explores the central question: How can you experience the presence of God? . Drawing from the life of King David in 1 Chronicles and the poetic reflections of Psalm 30, he explains that while God is omnipresent, we are called to seek a deep, relational communion and connection with Him. Pastor Ryan emphasizes two vital steps: we must desire God's presence and pursue it in God's way by following His Word rather than our own preferences. Using analogies of sports, music, and rivers, he illustrates how God’s "constraints"—His rules and boundaries—actually lead to true freedom, fulfillment, and joy . Ultimately, the message challenges listeners to realize that God's presence is not merely a means for transformation, but the goal itself , encouraging us to seek the Giver rather than just His gifts.
