What personal struggles does Bryce share about hearing God?
I was exploited to pornography when I was in the fifth grade, and I battled that addiction until I was 17 years old. And one of the reasons why I believe it was prolonged so long was because I was lonely and isolated, buried by guilt and shame. And that's why I'm excited to tell you guys about my friends at Covenant Eyes. Covenant Eyes is a faith-focused program that combines technology with accountability. It's not just about behavior control with them, it's actually about spiritual transformation, and I wish I had something like them to help me with my battle against pornography. Their technology detects risky content on your phone, and it will even alert trusted partners so it can help you continue this purity journey.
They integrate scripture, prayer guidances, and reflection exercises to help you deepen your spiritual growth and creating healthy digital habits in your life. Freedom isn't just a one-time thing. It can be a lifestyle and that lifestyle for you can start today. So my friends at Covenant Eyes are offering our listeners today a 30-day free trial.

Welcome back to another episode of the Bryce Crawford Podcast. I'm Bryce, and today's episode by the title, we're gonna be talking about when God goes silent. What does that mean? You're gonna find out when we open up Scripture together. I pray that you guys are having a great day watching or listening. We're gonna be in Exodus 32. If you got your Bibles, open up. If not, we're gonna read the Word of God if you're listening and you don't got it or you're watching.
But let me just give some context about what's going on here, okay? So if you flip back just a few, okay, A covenant gets confirmed with Moses in Exodus 24, okay? And God tells Moses to come meet him on this mountain called Mount Sinai. Now, right before this moment, what happens is in Egypt, you had Israel. The Israelites, they were enslaved. God sets them free. Moses comes in, does some crazy plagues through the Lord, sets them free. They escape. Moses parts the Red Sea. They get in. I mean, can you just imagine the stuff? Moses does plagues that mock all of the Egyptian gods. Then he parts the Red Sea. They walk across it. It splits in half and then it goes back and kills Pharaoh's army. Okay. A lot went down.
The Israelites, if you saw that, if I was an Israelite, I'd be like, oh, shoot, I am never forgetting this. I am becoming a Christian. And that's that, right? And that's what we tend to say. Let's walk with Jesus. Go, God, if you do this thing for me, then I'll follow you for the rest of my life. But that's always, most of the time, not always, but most of the time, never the case. So now we're in verse, in chapter 32. Moses is still on Mount Sinai alone with God. He's been up there. He's up there for 40 days. So that's how long he goes up there. But he says, hey, I'm going to go up there and I'll come back and blah, blah, blah. Great. Exodus 32, verse 1. When people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together up to Aaron and said to him, keep in mind, Moses is right-hand guy.
Aaron, they go up to Aaron. They say, up, make us gods who shall go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don't know what has become of him. So Aaron said to them, take off the rings of gold that are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me. So all the people took off the rings of gold that were in their ears and brought them to Aaron, and he received the gold from their hand and fashioned it with a graving tool and made a golden calf. And they said, these are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it, and then Aaron continues talking.
