Come hang out, laugh a little, and maybe leave inspired to find your own “t...

Sometimes the things that look the most spiritual are the ones that trip us up. In this episode, I’m talking about quiet time. You know, that carved-out 30 minutes where we read our Bible, pray, light a candle, and try to connect with God. It’s beautiful. It’s life-giving. BUT… it can also become a box we check. A straightjacket we can't get out of. A guilt trip when we miss it. Let’s talk about:...

We need to talk about sin and the compromises we keep choosing even when we know better. I’m sharing my own story of ignoring conviction, what happened when I stepped outside God’s protection, and how repentance isn’t about trying harder but changing how we think. If you’ve been feeling off in your faith or wondering why it’s hard to feel close to God, this episode will help you see what might be...

What if God’s goodness has been chasing you this whole time and you just haven’t noticed?

When your child says they don’t want to live anymore, it feels like the valley of the shadow of death.

God is growing you. That’s a good thing. But not everyone will like it. Sometimes the hardest part of spiritual growth isn’t the obedience, it’s the pushback. The awkward glances.

Because staying small for the comfort of others isn’t what...
