3 BIG Reasons Why God May Choose to Hide Himself

Why doesn’t God make Himself more obvious? If God truly exists, why wouldn’t He just appear to everyone and settle all doubts once and for all? In a world filled with skepticism, doubt, and unbelief, the “divine hiddenness” of God is one of the most common objections raised against Christianity. But is it really a valid reason to reject His existence? In this solo midweek episode, Frank tackles a listener’s question about God’s hiddenness and explores these questions along the way:

Does the hiddenness of God negate the evidence we already have for His existence?

What does Scripture reveal about why God may choose to remain unseen?

Would seeing the full presence of God actually eliminate doubt and unbelief for some people?

How do free will and love relate to divine hiddenness?

Why didn’t Jesus parade Himself around publicly post-resurrection so that everyone could see Him?

How did so many Pharisee priests come to believe in Jesus?

Were the angels ever exposed to the full presence of God?

If you—or someone you know—wrestles with the hiddenness of God, this episode will help you see how His presence can still be known. Don’t miss this thought-provoking discussion on one of the most challenging questions from skeptics!
