Hearing the Voice of God
•
19m
In this eye-opening episode, we expose the hidden dangers behind modern teachings that encourage believers to regularly hear God speak outside of Scripture—focusing especially on Pete Greig’s book How to Hear God.
You’ll learn how these teachings:
Enslave Christians to their feelings, dreams, and unreliable impressions
Create dependency on spiritual leaders who claim to hear God “better”
Add unbiblical requirements that compromise the gospel
Cause confusion, anxiety, and bad decision-making
Lead to real damage in missions, evangelism, and church life
Through real-life examples, scriptural analysis, and testimony from the mission field, this episode shows why these teachings aren’t just “misused by bad leaders”—they’re spiritually abusive at their core.
Key Topics Covered:
The dangers of the "hearing God's voice" teachings
The illusion of intimacy and divine will
Emotional and spiritual exhaustion
Manipulative leadership and dependency
How missions and evangelism suffer
If you've ever felt pressured to “hear God” through inner impressions, leaders, or signs—or if you’ve been told you're missing God’s will—this episode is for you.
