Confidence in Christ

Send us Fan Mail Hearing God is one thing, listening & obeying is a whole other step of faith. You and I know that but sometimes it's hard to do. Obedience in action takes trust, faith and deep relationship with the one asking us to do something. God is the only one we can trust in this way, knowing that he always has our best in mind. It was such a joy to invite Bill onto the podcast thi...

Send us Fan Mail This week we get to hear the testimony of a long time listener of the podcast, Tracy Duckett! It is such a full circle moment to invite those who listen to the encouragement of this podcast to share what God is doing in your lives! (ps... if you're interested in sharing your testimony please respond to this email!) Tracy's story is one of redemption, discovering purpose...

Send us Fan Mail When we talk about walking by faith and not by sight most of the time we are being figurative in our meaning. Not this week!! I had the blessed opportunity to talk with Chad Roberts and his lovely wife Sadie about their testimony of when Chad lost his sight in his mid-20's. Imagine going from being able to see, to absolutely nothing. What would that do to your faith? What wou...

Send us Fan Mail As Christ followers who want to be more serious in our relationship with Jesus we hear a lot about being a disciple of Jesus. We hear so much in church about "making disciples" and "being disciples" but what does it actually mean? How do we do this practically in our every day life?  To help us understand this better I invited Roger Ross on this week to walk us...

Send us Fan Mail Let's talk about when God feels silent. In today's world we would say God has "ghosted" us aka... gone silent. It can totally feel like that at times. Things get hard, situations feel impossible and now all of a sudden God feels like he's stopped speaking completely. What's up with that? How do we handle that?  My new friend Autumn wrote a book about...

Send us Fan Mail What is it about the hard questions in life that make us sink back and avoid them? Is it the awkwardness? The unknown? The not fully understanding the topic? It could be any number of these things or others but what we are asking this week on the podcast is, why not talk about it?  That's why the wonderful and talented Kendall Mariah wrote this book on this very topic. She is...

Send us Fan Mail Happy Valentines week! I pray you are feeling loved by those around you but especially by God. I know valentines can be a hard season for some and that's why this week we are focusing on a love that never fails, never leaves us and that redeemed us.  You're going to love this conversation with Stephanie because we go into more detail about Ruth, her story and how we see...

Send us Fan Mail The idea that we have the potential to burn down our own house and not even know it seems absurd... until it isn't. I'm not talking about our physical house, I'm talking about marriage. Things like contempt, bitterness and unforgiveness creep in and we don't know it until it seems like it too late.  Lindsey Maestas is a writer and podcast host known for saying...

Send us Fan Mail Happy first episode of season 8! Whether we grew up in the church or accepted Christ at a later age, we need to remember just how wildly in love with us our amazing God is. That he is actively pursing us in our current season of life. That's exactly what my new friend Whitney's book is all about. She shares part of her story during the episode and it's a beautiful r...

Send us Fan Mail You know how much I love studying the Bible and I also know you're aware of my passion to help you get into it, understand it and love it. Well guess what.... I got to talk with someone who is even more passionate about it!!  I was giddy when I got the opportunity to share Faith & her new book with you here on the podcast! This is going to be life changing for some of you...

Send us Fan Mail Last week was all about motherhood and how sometimes it can be tough. Keeping our eyes on Jesus and seeing ourselves like he sees us makes all the difference. If you missed that episode, make sure you go back and listen to it! This week is a follow up episode that I'm excited to share with you!  I met Linda through a friend and she agreed to sit down and share authentically h...

Send us Fan Mail Motherhood.... it will always be one of the biggest blessings in our life but it is also something that can drive us crazy! Do not get me wrong, I love my kiddos and would do absolutely anything for them but some days, they push every button I have and even discover new ones! haha Have you been there?  My amazing friend Shayla felt the exact same way for years. She was just like u...

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes we just need reminded what thankfulness is all about from a kid's perspective. I invited my two kiddos on this week to share their thoughts on thankfulness, what God says about it and what we can practically do to obey Him. Plus there is a pretty fun extra at the end that will make you smile this thanksgiving!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING from the Confidence in Christ Podcas...

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever felt like you may have been a little too reckless or gone a little too far for God to forgive you? Today we are here to tell you that that's just not true! There is nothing you can do to make God stop loving you. He will continue to pursue you even in your sin.  My guest today is a new friend whom I go to church with! He actually reached out to share his testimo...

Send us Fan Mail Part of the reason we need to be in scripture so much is because sooner or later we are going to be faced with questions. Questions about why you believe what you believe, evidence for what you believe, etc. That sounds terrifying to most of us, right? We'd rather hide under a rock than have to defend what we believe. Why is that? If I had to take a guess, it's because w...

Send us Fan Mail Anxious thoughts can be a constant in our lives and sometimes they seem like they will never quiet down. What do we do when they seem to swirl around our mind constantly? If we believe in Jesus Christ as our savior there is actually a lot we can do about it! First, we remind them of the truths we know from scripture. Second step can look different for all of us but it can include...

Send us Fan Mail The topic of spiritual warfare is not one you will hear preached on or talked about often. Why, because it makes people uncomfortable. We tend to avoid things that we don't fully understand and when it comes to talking about things we can't see with our eyes it adds another layer of uncertainty. This is the reason I wanted to have a conversation about it on the podcast. ...

Send us Fan Mail We've all heard things like, " You can do anything!", "She believed she could so she did!", "I am enough!"... the list goes on right? None of these are true!! Some of these sound totally valid though don't they? Isn't it funny how a simple little statement like that which is completely unbiblical can tickle our ears and make us feel sec...

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes we struggle with finding the courage to be who God has called us to be. Maybe we aren't even sure who that person is? Discovering who God says you are as a child of His changes everything! It helps solidify your identity in Christ, it makes walking in your calling and purpose clearer because of your relationship with the Lord. We talk all about it in today's ep...

Send us Fan Mail Rest. It feels like a luxury most days doesn't it? Something that is fleeting and nonexistent in some of our lives. But what if rest wasn't just something we did, but a way in which we lived? I'm not talking about a laziness or disinterest in doing the things God has called us to. I'm referring to the way we see things and experience them through the lens of th...

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever scrolled through Pinterest and thought "that table scape/ party is perfect, I can never do that!" and with that thought leaves every thought of hosting anyone ever? Because... if it isn't that pretty no one will want to come.... right?? WRONG!! That is a lie from the devil himself friend and I need you to perk up and see that!  Hosting people in our ho...

Send us Fan Mail When I heard about Amanda's book about archeology and the Bible I HAD to talk to her! Have you ever thought about the fact that how we view the Bible and its stories might now accurately line up with what actually happened in that time period?  Well, that's where Amanda comes in! She has a passion to help us see scripture as it actually was. What the landscape looked lik...

Send us Fan Mail Anxiety has a way of impacting us in ways that are not just mental but also emotional and physical. It can wake us up in the middle of the night and cause our heart to race when our thoughts aren't anxious. Why does it do that and what does that mean for those of us who belong to Christ? Are we not trusting him enough? Is there something more we need to do?  These are some of...
