If God Is For You, Why Is Life This Hard? What Romans 8:31 Really Means 03.11.2026 1:06:31
Ever wondered, "If God is for me, why is life this hard?" This episode is for you if you're in a season where nothing is working, a boss, a situation, or a person feels against you, and you're quietly questioning whether God is really on your side. We walk through Romans 8 and the stories of David, Joseph, and Elisha's servant to talk honestly about what "God is for us&q...
How to Pray When You Don't Know What to Pray 27.10.2026 1:04:43
When you don't know what to pray, you're not stuck. You're exactly where the Holy Spirit helps. You've probably quoted Romans 8:28 in a hard season. But what if the verse is about more than "it'll work out"? In this episode, Uwem walks through Romans 8:26–28 and shows a framework he found hiding in plain sight: the Spirit helps, the Father knows, so we know. You'l...
You Don't Need More Faith. Here's What the Mustard Seed Really Means 20.10.2026 1:16:14
When life stops making sense, do you actually need more faith? You've probably prayed it: "God, increase my faith." The disciples did too. But Jesus's answer wasn't what they expected. He pointed to a mustard seed, as small as a grain of sand. In this episode I walk through what that means for you right now, especially if you're tired, confused, or unsure what to do next. You'll hear: why faith is...
What "God Hates Divorce" Actually Meant (And Who God Was Talking To) 13.10.2026 1:12:10
Is marriage a trap, or have we misunderstood what God said about it? In this solo episode, I respond to a post that stopped me in my tracks, a woman describing how some men make staying so unbearable that leaving becomes the only choice. The comments were full of people saying, "This was me." I walk through why so many people now say marriage isn't worth it, what Scripture says about hardness of h...

Are your past mistakes holding you back from stepping into your future? In this live broadcast, we are diving deep into the psychology of regret, the destructive trap of complaining, and how shifting your perspective can transform your life.

I Thought By Now... What To Do With Disappointment (Faith) 29.09.2026 1:19:48
I Thought By Now... What Do You Do With Disappointment? Somewhere along the way you decided where you'd be by now: married, healed, financially free, further along. And it hasn't happened. What do you do with that gap between the life you expected and the life you're living? In this episode of Godly Conversations, we explore the "I Thought By Now" mindset through three lenses...
I Thought God Led Me Into This... Then He Let It Break 22.09.2026 1:38:52
Imoh returns to Godly Conversations for a raw one-on-one on the word that defined his year: acceptance. From a breakup he believed was God-ordained, to a live correction on the Abraham and Isaac story, to why healing is not the same as moving on — this is an unfiltered look at what it actually takes to walk through loss without losing your faith. Scripture referenced: Genesis 22, Romans 12:2, Hebr...
The Shame Around C-Sections Has to Stop, Says This Nurse 15.09.2026 1:15:47
What if one of the most repeated 'biblical' phrases about childbirth... was never true? In this episode, I talk with a healthcare leader and longtime friend about leaving home at 19 on a lie and a prayer, what real audacity looks like, and the quiet shame so many women carry around how they gave birth. We dig into Exodus, debunk the 'Hebrew women' myth, and talk honestly about post...
You Are Not Irredeemable: A Conversation the Church Needs to Hear 08.09.2026 1:10:07
What do you do when the addiction feels bigger than your faith? In this episode, we sit down with Nkemjika to talk honestly about childhood trauma, sexual addiction, and the quiet shame so many carry into church every week. We get into why sexual sin has become so normalized, why married men committing adultery might be an even bigger hidden issue than the sins we usually call out, and what real f...
The Rope You're Holding: What Hope Actually Means in Scripture 01.09.2026 56:50
Hope is not "I wish." In Hebrew, the word for hope — tikva — literally means "rope." In this solo episode of Godly Conversations, we dig into what that means for anyone who has stopped hoping to avoid getting hurt again. We walk through: • Why grieving disappointment (not avoiding it) is what protects your capacity to hope • The Hebrew words for hope — tikva, mikveh, yaqal — and the Greek word elp...
The 3 Greek Words for Love Every Relationship Needs 25.08.2026 58:58
Ever been told "love isn't enough"? You're not wrong — but you might be missing something. In this episode, we unpack three different Greek words for love found in Scripture, and why most relationships run on only one of them. If you've ever wondered why a relationship that felt so right still fell apart, this conversation reframes the whole question. Real talk, real Scripture, real application —...
Why You've Been Studying the Bible for the Wrong Reasons | Bible Study Tour with Uwem | GC 18.08.2026 1:03:21
Ever felt guilty for not reading your Bible more — or bored when you actually try? In this episode, Uwem takes you on a tour through one of the most honest conversations about Bible study you'll hear: why most of us start with the wrong motives, and what changes when your "why" finally lines up with God's actual invitation to know Him. Using a simple telescope-and-microscope picture, Uwem walks th...
How Starting a Podcast Completely Changed My Life (82 Episodes Later) 11.08.2026 57:54
82 episodes. Almost two years. Still no income from this podcast. And I've never been more convinced I'm supposed to keep going. In this solo episode, I get real about the fear of running out of ideas, what it's actually taught me to trust the "infinite well" God put in me, and why consistency isn't about being perfect — it's about refusing to quit. I talk about David...
You Might Be Helping the Weapon Against You Prosper 04.08.2026 1:01:14
You've prayed "no weapon formed against you shall prosper" a hundred times. But have you ever obeyed the second half of that verse? In this episode, Uwem uncovers a "divine sandwich" hidden in Isaiah 54:17 — a promise from God, a responsibility for you, and an inheritance neither of you could earn. Using the story of Balak and Balaam, he shows how the enemy attacks when he...
He Grew Up Where Nobody Escapes — Here's How He Did 28.07.2026 59:37
He grew up somewhere people didn't expect much from him. He survived it — and today, he's helping other young people find what he almost never saw for himself: a picture of a different life. In this episode, Abraham joins the podcast to talk about identity, self-worth, and the moment he realized he'd spent years without ever seeing what was possible for his own life. We get into why so...
Jesus Wept — And It Changes Everything About Strength 21.07.2026 45:12
Have you ever been told to "be strong" and quietly believed that meant not crying? In this episode, we unpack the shortest verse in the Bible — "Jesus wept" — and what it reveals about strength, grief, and permission to feel. Through the story of Lazarus in John 11, we look at the original Greek word behind Jesus's tears, why the early church tried to explain them away, and...
Once Saved, Always Saved? Kissing, Dating an Unbeliever & More (Q&A Pt. 2) 14.07.2026 1:04:36
Part 2 of our Q&A series. Uwem and Habeeb tackle whether a believer can lose their salvation, why we still ask God for mercy after the cross, whether kissing before marriage is a sin, and how to walk away from a relationship with someone you love who isn't a believer. Grounded in Ephesians 2, Romans 6, Hebrews 4 & 10, 2 Timothy 2:22, and more — delivered the way this podcast always does it...
Is God Gambling With Your Life? (Answering Your Hardest Questions) 07.07.2026 59:28
Is God gambling with your life when bad things happen? On this episode, Uwem sits with Habeeb to answer real questions from young people navigating faith — why a good God allows suffering, whether Christians can listen to secular music or go to parties, and a preview of the eternal security conversation coming in Part 2. Scripture referenced: Isaiah 45:7, Romans 2, 5, 6, James 1, Galatians 5, 1 Jo...
The Armor That's Actually Wounding You: Ego, Pride & Anger Explained 30.06.2026 50:10
Ego, pride, and anger feel like protection — but they're actually the armor that's wounding your relationships, your leadership, and your walk with God. In this solo episode of Godly Conversations Podcast, Uwem breaks down the relationship between ego, pride, and anger — three "cousins" that work together to sabotage marriages, friendships, and leadership. Drawing from the etymol...
God Is Not Like Your Father: Healing the Father Wound 23.06.2026 50:20
You know the Lord's Prayer. You've probably prayed it hundreds of times. But when you get to "Our Father" — what happens inside you? For a lot of people, that phrase carries weight they've never had words for. Because the word father isn't neutral. It's attached to someone. An experience. A wound. In this episode, Uwem gets honest about his own experience growing up —...
A Psalm 23 Meditation for Anyone Who Can't Sleep From Worry 16.06.2026 53:08
You've quoted Psalm 23 a hundred times. But have you ever really sat with what it means that the Lord is your shepherd — not just "the" shepherd? In this episode of Godly Conversations Podcast, we slow down and meditate verse by verse through Psalm 23, reading it through the lens of someone who actually knows what it means to be a shepherd. We start with John 10 to establish somethin...
Would You Still Want Heaven If God Wasn't There? 09.06.2026 1:04:20
What if heaven is not actually the goal? What if you have been asking the wrong question your whole life — and that wrong question is the reason you still aren't sure whether you'll make it? In this episode of Godly Conversations, Uwem confronts one of the most quietly damaging beliefs in the church: that heaven is the prize Christians are living to earn. Drawing from John 17:3, Ephesians...
Your Agenda vs God's Plan: Stop Using God as a Vending Machine 02.06.2026 1:06:25
Are you using prayer, fasting, and worship to get something FROM God — or to get closer TO God ? In this episode of Godly Conversations Podcast , Uwem delivers a deeply honest and disruptive message about the difference between YOUR agenda and GOD'S agenda — and why chasing your own plans instead of surrendering to God's purpose may be the very thing standing in the way of your true fulfil...
They Lied to You About Humility (This Will Shock You) 26.05.2026 1:07:23
Have you been living a lie about what humility actually is? In this episode of Godly Conversations Podcast, we unpack one of the most misunderstood virtues in Christian culture — humility. And the truth is going to challenge everything you thought you knew. Humility is NOT: — Being quiet or soft-spoken — Denying your identity or shrinking yourself — Accepting injustice and staying silent ...
Lovers of Pleasure More Than Lovers of God | What 2 Timothy 3 Says About Our Culture 19.05.2026 1:08:19
You've heard it a thousand times — "Do what makes you happy." "Live your best life." "It's your body, your choice." But what if that message — as normal as it sounds — is one of the most dangerous things you can believe? In this episode of Godly Conversations Podcast, Uwem breaks down what the Bible calls "The God Swap" — the silent cultural shift wh...
