The Right to Hear

Jun 7, 2026    Pastor Mark England

"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus." — Romans 8:1


What if the reason you struggle to hear God isn't your sin, but your shame? Picture borrowing a large sum from your father, going broke, and never paying it back. Then your phone buzzes: "Dad." Your stomach drops, and you let it ring — certain he's calling to collect. That's exactly what we do with God. We assume He's calling to condemn, so we hide, just like Adam in the garden and Cain after Abel.


In Part 1 of Discerning the Voice of God, Pastor Mark draws from Genesis 3–4, Romans 5, and 2 Corinthians 5 to expose our greatest limitation — self-inflicted disqualification — and to reclaim what Jesus already bought back: your Right to Hear. You'll learn why it's not sin but the consciousness of sin that separates us, why righteousness is a gift you receive rather than earn, and how to stop dodging your Father's call and answer the voice that has been pursuing you all along.
