If you’ve ever been told your sin separates you from God, Isaiah 59 might surprise you. Verse 2 isn’t the bad news we’ve made it—it’s the setup for the Good News.
By the time you reach verse 20, Isaiah reveals the Redeemer who bridges the gap we could never cross ourselves. In this episode, the On the Table team steps through how context and a full reading changes everything: why believers cannot be separated from God, why unbelief—not sin—is what creates detachment, and how Jesus is the answer Isaiah was pointing to all along. God’s not walking away from you. He’s running toward you.
