Light Bearers in Training

On today’s episode, we are going to continue talking about barriers between us and God. We will continue with lies and wrong beliefs and then move on to sin and unforgiveness. Remember when Jesus was being tempted for 40 days in the desert? Satan was there and misquoting scripture to him. Jesus answered back with actual scripture and the enemy was shut down. We need to do the same with the lies th...

We recently talked about going deeper with God and who He is to us, but we can often find that there are issues or barriers standing in the way of our communion and relationship with God. On today’s episode, we’re going to talk about the barriers we put up. We can put up barriers either consciously or subconsciously. This is to protect ourselves from future hurts.  If it’s conscious we may have sa...

On today’s episode, we are going to talk about what journaling can look like during your time set apart to spend with God. Many Christians call this their quiet time. It’s not a biblical term, but we do know that Jesus often went off by himself to spend time with the Father and that’s what we are trying to emulate.  Do you have a journal? It can be a plain notebook or a fancy leather book that say...

Were you able to get time alone with God this past week? Did you start to establish a routine of spending time with Him, even if it’s only two minutes? On today’s episode, we are going pick up where we left off in our quiet time with God. We will dive even deeper in on what time with your Heavenly Father might look like. 

On today’s episode I felt like we all needed a reminder to make time experiencing God a priority, but we also needed to remember to give ourselves grace.  So do you find yourself forgetting? Honestly, I do sometimes. I talk to Him off and on all day and I read the Bible every day, but sometimes I forget to be still or abide with God. I don’t take quiet, set apart time to listen to Him. It’s so str...

A.W. Tozer says that what we think about God is the most important thing about us. What do you think about God? How do you perceive Him? As a loving heavenly Father or as your earthly father who was full of mistakes. Is he close to you or far off. Does he love you only if you’re good? On today’s episode we are going to talk about the truth of God being our Father.  So what is the truth about God a...

Even as Light Bearers, we make mistakes, usually daily if we are being honest. Do you stumble, do you fall flat on your face? I know as a believer I do.  On today’s episode, we’re going to talk about making mistakes which is just a part of being human. Thankfully, we don’t have to sit in those mistakes because we have a priceless gift called grace.

On today’s episode we are going to talk through remembering that God is Still on his Throne even in suffering and trials.  It's hard to explain to my boys why we humans do what we do to each other as they look at me with sadness, fear, or anger in their precious eyes at the loss of a life. Why didn't God stop 9/11? Why didn't he stop the assassination of Charlie Kirk? Unfortunately,...

On today’s episode, we are going back to the basics. What does it mean to hear God? What does it mean to commune with God? Today some people believe that we can no longer hear God, that the Bible is the only way to hear from Him, but scripture doesn’t support this. All throughout the Bible people heard from God, talked to God, and met with God. Why would God stop? He wouldn’t. He is unchanging, so...

In today’s episode, let’s remind ourselves who we are listening to, who we are communing with, and who we are meditating on. The God of the universe.  Secular nuances and other religions have tried to take words like meditation and pervert them. Meditation simply means to focus on something or on some thought intently. Merriam-Webster defines mediate as a verb that means to engage in contemplation...

On today’s episode, I felt like the Lord was leading me to talk to you about what we all need to unpack. It’s been a lot of packing and unpacking for our family since April and wouldn’t you know it, I hate packing!  We lived in our camping trailer for 8 weeks and then a friend’s house for 4 weeks. We move into our house this week, the last week of July. As you might expect, we are living without m...

In this episode, we are finishing our three-part series on my tagline. You are seen. You matter. And now we are ready to receive what God wants us to know about being loved by Him. Each one of us needs to know that we are deeply, steadfastly, and unconditionally loved by the Creator of the Universe.  1 John 3:1 states it outright, “See what an incredible quality of love the Father has shown to us,...

As Light Bearers in Training we have to put God first, but there is therefore now condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Period. So don’t allow feelings of guilt and shame, just start again today. God deserves to be in a place of honor in our lives because He matters to us. Today, we are going to continue our three-part series with the next statement, you matter. Each of us needs to know...

I’m sure by now you’ve heard my tagline. You are seen. You matter. You are loved. This was a phrase given to me by the Lord when I was trying to figure out what my brand would be as an author. I didn’t want my website or my podcast to be about me. I wanted them to be about you, my audience and that’s what I feel like He gave me.  Every person needs to know that they are seen by God, that they matt...

In today’s episode we are going to talk about the eternal impact in the everyday moments of our lives. Let’s take some deep breaths as we settle in together.  Last week, we talked about God making a way in circumstances. While the scenario I shared happened over months, God only needs a moment.

In today’s episode we’re going to talk about God, our Way Maker. So let’s settle in with Him to receive the Word He has for us today.  God is a Way Maker. Many times when we want something, we can’t see this. It can often feels like He’s standing in our way. But I have learned many times over the almost 15 years I’ve been walking with Him, that if He says no or stands in my way, it’s for my good o...

In this episode I wanted to bless you all with the first chapter of the The Dawn (A Light Bearers shorty story prequel). If you would like the full prequel, it's free on my website at  https://mindyhite.com/books/ I hope you enjoy! Remember, you are seen, you matter, you are loved.

In episode 5 we talked about how you can picture yourself putting on your helmet to guard your thoughts, today we’re going to look at the Full Armor of God that is found in Ephesians 6. In the book of Ephesians, Paul is talking to the believers in Ephesus about how to live a Godly life and resist falling back into their old lives. In verse 6:10 we see Paul tell the believers to be strong in the Lo...

On today’s episode, we’re going to talk about being weary and heavy burdened and then we’ll practice releasing our burdens to the only one who can carry them, Jesus.  Take a few deep breaths as I keep going.   Let me ask you a question, Who do you text or call when you’re having a bad day? There’s probably at least one person that comes to mind.  contact@mindyhite.com

In this episode we’re going to talk about distractions. There are so many different distractions in our lives in 2025. The biggest one is social media. “Duh, duh, duh!” Back when I used to follow social media, I would fall into a black hole of time and come out two hours later grumpy and wondering what happened to the two hours. I post book updates on Instagram and FB so that people who use those...

On today’s episode, we are finishing up our last episode on Knowing God’s Voice with learning how to have a conversation with Him. How did your time in the Word go this last week? Did you have a verse or a passage to keep with you throughout the week? Do you feel a little closer to Him? Being in the Bible every day is not only possible it’s necessary for life and Godliness. We’re going to continue...

On today’s episode we are going to continue our 3-part series Knowing God’s Voice, by knowing Him through His Word. How did your practice go over this last week? Were you able to ask the Lord to speak? Did you hear anything? If it was uplifting, did you believe it was God or dismiss it as your own thoughts?  I’m here to tell you that I hear from God all the time and I know many fellow believers th...

On today’s episode we’re starting a three-part training on Knowing God's Voice. Our training will include learning how God speaks, training ourselves to be able to discern His voice, affirming what we hear with scripture, and learning how to have daily conversation with Him. Today we’re going to focus on how God speaks and learning to embrace the silence. In The Awakening , we see Sarah learn...

On today’s episode, we’re going to talk about relationships. And not just any relationship, but the most important relationship we will ever have. The relationship we have with God. What does your relationship look like with Father God? Do you picture Him sitting up in heaven judging you? Is He far away? Have you ever tried to picture God? A.W. Tozer, a brilliant Christian theologian and lover of...
