Key Takeaways

1. God hasn’t moved—we have. If we feel distant, we need to realign our focus.
2. Be specific about how you feel. Whether you’re feeling distant, distracted, or disconnected, name it so you can pray about it effectively.
3. Get back to the basics of faith - prioritize time with God and reignite your prayer and study life.

If you’ve fallen off, just start again. There’s no shame in resetting your faith journey.
