God’s first move after failure isn’t a lecture. It’s a question: “Where are you?” Ryan takes us into Genesis 3, back to the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Eve reach for the forbidden fruit, feel their eyes open, and suddenly want to cover up. That turn from openness to hiding is more than a Bible story. It’s a mirror for shame, fear, and the way we try to manage our image when we don’t feel safe being known.
We slow down and listen to God’s voice walking in the cool of the day, not asking for coordinates but for honesty. Where did your heart go? What are you carrying? What have you been telling yourself about God? We connect that moment to everyday life, like a child hiding after a mistake, and we name the hard truth: we often avoid the very One who can heal us. Along the way, we explore how misconceptions, past wounds, and a broken world can shape our choices and distort our vision.
Then we link Genesis to Luke 15 and the prodigal son, waking up far from home and “coming to his senses.” The good news is that return is possible, and restoration is real. We end with a simple nightly prayer that works like a spiritual check-in: “Oh my heart, where have you been today?” If you’ve been drifting, numb, defensive, or tired, this is a gentle place to start.
