Awakened Conversations

How often do you feed your body? Most of us eat multiple times every day without even thinking about it. But when was the last time you fed your soul? In this episode of Awakened Conversations, we explore the powerful connection between physical hunger and spiritual hunger. Just as our bodies become weak without food, our spirits become weak when we’re not regularly nourished by God’s Word. What i...

How can you put in effort without proper rest? In order to be awake, alert, and dressed for battle you must be well rested. In this episode we talk about how to spiritually rest and lean on God. God did it, Jesus did, and we should too! We will have to give up worldly things in exchange for Kingdom things. That is hard! It’s not that kingdom things have less value but we have forgotten their value...

Preparing for battle invites warfare. As we wake up, become alert, and get dressed for battle, the enemy is going to be upset. Trust me, I know. Even when we’re following the game plan and doing our best, there will be moments when we fall. That’s okay—get back up! Do not indulge in the comforts of this world. They are lies from the enemy who hates us. In this episode, we talk about the Israelites...

Get Dressed for Battle We’ve woken up. We’ve become alert. Now it’s time to get dressed. In this episode, we dive into Ephesians 6 and what it truly means to put on the armor of God. The battle is real, but our assignment is clear: stand. Standing isn’t just refusing to quit — it’s continuing to do the last thing God told you to do, even when the pressure rises and the enemy pushes back. We talk a...

It’s one thing to wake up. It’s another thing to stay alert. In this episode, we talk about what it really means to be spiritually alert and why we have to first acknowledge that the devil is real and actively working against us. We discuss the importance of having a game plan, protecting our minds, and staying grounded in God so we aren’t easily distracted, discouraged, or defeated. This episode...

Last episode, we talked about what it truly means to be saved—confessing that Jesus is Lord and surrendering your life to Him. But what happens after that? In this episode, we’re diving into the life that follows salvation. Because belief alone isn’t the end—it’s the beginning. A new life requires a new way of living. What does it actually mean to be “give your life”? And what does Jesus mean when...

We say we’re saved… but what does that actually mean for how we live right now? In this episode, we go beyond the moment of salvation and into the reality of what it looks like to truly follow Christ day by day. If we’ve already given our lives to Him, why does Scripture keep telling us to stay awake, be alert, and live differently? Together, we unpack powerful passages like Matthew 24, Romans 13,...

The fear of the Lord—what does that even mean? For many of us, that phrase can feel uncomfortable or even confusing. Maybe it’s been taught in a way that made God seem harsh, distant, or angry. But what if we’ve misunderstood it? In this episode, we’re gently unpacking what the fear of the Lord actually means and why Scripture calls it the beginning of wisdom. This isn’t about being afraid of God—...

In this episode, we continue the call to wake up—not from fear, but from love. After celebrating Easter and the sacrifice of Jesus, we take a closer look at one of His parables during Holy Week: the wise and foolish virgins in Matthew 25. They all looked the same. They all expected the Bridegroom. But only some were prepared. What does that mean for us today? This message is a reminder that faith...

In this episode, we talk about the kind of love that doesn’t leave us where we are. God’s love isn’t distant or passive—it’s active, pursuing, and deeply personal. Sometimes, that love looks like a gentle wake-up call. You are loved—and that love is calling you to awaken.

In this first episode of Awakened Conversations, we’re talking about what it truly means to be awake in your faith. Not just knowing God—but making Jesus Lord and living a life that reflects that daily. If you’ve been feeling like you’re going through the motions or spiritually asleep, this conversation is an invitation to wake up. We’ll also spend time in scripture and reflect on what God’s Word...
