Noticing God in Season Two: Going Slowly with God and Others with Jay Y. Kim
Saison 2 · Épisode 9
mercredi 26 mars 2025 • Durée 17:53
Life is a mysterious gift—a gift meant to be given for the sake of others.
While our individualistic and speed-driven culture urges us to prioritize our own needs and desires, serving others can offer us not only a profound sense of freedom but also a heart more attuned to noticing God every day. By lifting our gaze from ourselves, we recognize that walking slowly with God includes an invitation to live at the countercultural pace of his love.
As we conclude the second season of The Digital Examen, Jay Y. Kim reflects on our journey of learning to notice God together. Kim draws inspiration from the Romantic painting "The Wanderer above the Sea Fog," by Caspar David Friedrich, which helps us see beyond our immediate self-interests and embrace the ambiguities of life with God. Kim also illustrates the joy of living in service to others and intimacy with God. Finally, Kim invites us to go patiently with God by saturating ourselves in Scripture, making a regular practice of prayer, and inviting a local Christian community to accompany us along the way. In due time, these everyday practices will help attune us in heart, soul, mind, and strength to more readily experience God’s voice and presence, forming us into people who are more alive to him in all of life.
As we offer our attention to the needs of others and daily spiritual rhythms, we can grow to notice God in all of the mundane and majestic moments of our everyday lives. Tune in to learn more.
This episode highlights the following themes:
- Experiencing freedom by casting our anxieties on God
- Noticing God through humility and service
- Trusting God to complete his work in you in due time

God is present; do we notice him? As the world gets louder, listening to God’s voice becomes increasingly challenging. We are bombarded by the chaos of our feeds, by distractions both inside and out, and by the everyday cacophony that drowns out the calm of a life lived in close communion with God. In this season of The Digital Examen, pastor, and author Jay Y. Kim guides us toward reorienting our lives so that we can notice God with the entirety of our beings—heart, soul, mind, strength—in both the mundane and majestic moments of everyday life.

Noticing God with Heart, Soul, Mind, and Strength with Andy Crouch
Saison 2 · Épisode 8
mercredi 19 mars 2025 • Durée 51:43
Modern technology has become more than just a neutral tool—it has become a “superpower,” making the sensation of skill and semblance of progress almost effortless.
Personalized algorithms allow us to shed the seeming inconveniences of effort, connection, and patience that engage our human personhood.
In a landscape of automation and customization, how can we experience personal connection, satisfying discipline, and sincere growth in our everyday walk with God?
Join Jay Y. Kim as he welcomes Andy Crouch, renowned author, thought leader, and partner for theology and culture at Praxis. Crouch has written several influential books on faithful Christian living, including Culture Making, The Tech-Wise Family, Playing God, Strong and Weak, and, most recently, The Life We’re Looking For.
In their conversation, Kim and Crouch explore the unique ways in which modern, “personalized” technologies are malforming our loves, desires, and sense of personhood. They discuss the unprecedented “superpower” that technology grants us to experience the illusion of power without the burden of effort. They draw a strong connection between our ever-shortening attention spans and our common struggle to experience God’s presence meaningfully every day. Our growing absence of personal discipline, coupled with waning relational connection, is informing a covert belief that following Jesus should be easy and require little day-to-day effort. Crouch challenges the way modern worship music often focuses on effortless spiritual experiences, which fails to speak to corporate realities and the full range of human experiences. Informed by Scripture and Christian history, Kim and Crouch encourage us to embrace God’s grace by committing to simple, time-tested spiritual practices that will open us up to the activity and presence of God over time.
Modern technologies seek to malform our sense of personhood through ease and convenience, yet the Christian life of noticing and experiencing God requires practice, focus, and intentionality.
Tune in to heed God’s call to a harder, better life sustained by grace.
This episode highlights the following themes:
- The illusion of effortless power in the digital age
- The distinction between personal and personalization
- The power of intentional, spiritual practices

Saison 2 · Épisode 2
mercredi 15 janvier 2025 • Durée 45:10
We live in a culture marked not only by hurry, but also antagonism and individualism.
It’s easy for our voice to feel either drowned out by the noise, or unworthy of adding to it. How do we discern our unique voice amid distractions and effectively speak goodness into a world in need?
In this episode, host Jay Y. Kim sits down with Ashlee Eiland, thought leader, Bible teacher, and author of Say Good, to explore how discerning our voice in a content-cluttered world begins with pausing to notice God’s voice and patient presence with us all along. Together, they discuss the emotional realities of, and clarity found in, practicing self-interrogation, cultivating slowness, and making space to encounter God everyday.
Our words are innately powerful, even the words “I don’t know.” Tune in to learn how God’s grace and presence can empower you to be actively engaged in a world of reactive headlines and information overwhelm.
This episode highlights the following themes:
- The four-pillar framework for discernment: Passion, Accountability, Influence, and Relationship
- Practical strategies to resist reactivity and engage thoughtfully
- Recognizing God’s patient presence in the midst of life’s chaos

Examining Season One: Contemplating All of Reality with God with Jay Y. Kim
Épisode 12
mardi 26 mars 2024 • Durée 16:36
An examined life is a thoughtful life. Yet, it is not a life where we merely think of God. Instead, we are called to consider all of reality alongside God.
In this season's finale, Jay Y. Kim concludes with a sincere word of gratitude to the engaged listeners and insightful guests who've made this journey enlivening and reorienting. With a pastoral tone, Kim invites us to fix our thoughts on the God who continually thinks lovingly of us.
He reminds us that the mind of Christ is available to us, as God invites us to notice and enjoy his presence with us here and now.
We pray this season offers you a clearer vision of an examined life that is stilled on God and meaningful steps towards living at the pace of peace.

Examining the Freedom of Being in God's Presence with Kristel Acevedo
Épisode 11
mercredi 20 mars 2024 • Durée 34:55
Why is it so hard to make space to hear God’s comforting, loving voice in a world filled with daily pressures and burdens? How do we release ourselves from a spirituality based on “doing” the right things and instead focus on being in God’s presence? It is as we grow to love God’s voice which can fill us with his good gifts of encouragement, reassurance, peace, and hope that we can withstand and resist the cultural pressures around us.
In this episode, host Jay Y. Kim is joined by Kristel Acevedo, spiritual formation director at Transformation Church in South Carolina and co-author of the teen devotional 3 Big Questions That Shape Your Future. Through thoughtful conversation with Kim, Acevedo encourages us to invite God into our often overly-hurried days, embrace all of life as an act of worship, and make time to simply “be” with Jesus.
Drawing from her experience as a youth leader, Acevedo comments on the unique strengths and challenges of teens today and extols Gen Z’s pursuit of sincerity and communal health, traits that can be a model for Christians of all ages.
Listen in to learn how to pause, notice, and surrender to God’s active work in our lives, experience the easy burden Jesus promises, and grow into being full participants in his missional call.

Examining the Bible as a Lens to See Our Lives with Tim Mackie
Épisode 10
mercredi 13 mars 2024 • Durée 54:48
More often than not, we approach reading Scripture as a simple means to an end, or a task on our spiritual checklist, instead of as a living text and lens through which to see our lives. How can we become people who meditate on God’s Word day and night out of both habit and delight?
In this episode, host Jay Y. Kim converses with scholar and co-founder of the Bible Project, Dr. Tim Mackie. Together, they explore how immersing ourselves in the communal, family story of Scripture can help us perceive God’s voice. Mackie also shares his pastoral background and personal journey of learning about and loving God’s word, revealing recent experiences that have fundamentally changed his understanding of what it means to be with God in the here and now.
This conversation invites us to approach the Bible not as a mere intellectual exercise, but as a slow, generative way to encounter God, be formed by his truth, and reshape how we view ourselves, others, and the world around us. Tune in to this thought-provoking episode to unearth delight and wonder in your reading and study of God’s word.

Examining the Challenge of Discipling Kids in a Digital Age with Sarah Cowan Johnson
Épisode 9
mercredi 6 mars 2024 • Durée 39:03
The foundations for a lifelong faith begin not in children’s ministry or church programs, but with parents. In a world that pushes us to be distracted, disengaged, and anxious, how can we instead disciple our children from a place of peace, attentiveness, and responsiveness to the Holy Spirit’s work in our family?
In this episode, Jay Y. Kim is joined by Sarah Cowan Johnson, a ministry trainer, consultant, coach, and author of Teach Your Children Well. Together they explore effective strategies for everyday family discipleship and discuss how parents can be expectant and aware of God’s presence and ongoing work in their children. Drawing on her extensive ministry experience, Johnson emphasizes the importance of parents leading the way in their children’s spiritual formation through attentiveness, countercultural choices, and intentionality in the ordinary moments of family life.
Kim and Johnson also dissect social media’s harmful effects on the wellbeing of youth and encourage parents to create age-appropriate opportunities for their children to learn the spiritual skill of discernment.
Tune in to glean wisdom and approachable practices for raising your children well in an overly-hectic and technology-driven world.
