In this episode, Rick addresses one of the most damaging beliefs that quietly undermines intimacy with God: the fear that God is angry with us when we fail. For many believers, this belief creates a cycle of shame, striving, and distance—causing them to pull away from God instead of running toward Him.

Through personal testimony and a careful walk through Isaiah 54, Rick reveals the heart of the Father toward His children and exposes how the idea of God being angry with believers is rooted in misunderstanding the difference between the Old Covenant and the New. You’ll discover how shame, fear, and religious pressure distort our view of God and why Scripture clearly declares that God has sworn never to be angry with those who are in Christ.

Rick also shares how God personally freed him from a performance-driven relationship and taught him to trust the Father’s work within him rather than striving to earn approval. This teaching brings healing to past wounds, breaks the power of condemnation, and restores confidence to approach God freely—even in moments of weakness.

This episode will help you let go of fear-based religion, silence the lie that God is displeased or distant, and embrace the truth that His steadfast love, compassion, and covenant of peace toward you will never be removed.

This podcast exists to help you grow in intimacy with God, develop a prayer life that truly transforms your life, and walk daily with confidence, freedom, and assurance in His presence.
