The Becoming Podcast

Welcome back! Today we are doing a deep dive into the scripture with a specific focus in Psalm 25:13 that says, "Who is the man who fears the Lord? Him shall He teach in in the way Hechooses. He will dwell in prosperity and his descendants shall inherit the land." What does dwell actually mean and what does dwelling in prosperity really look like? Sarah unpacks the root words in the Hebr...

I am not a victim of my life. I am a steward of it. So much of our suffering comes from treating life like a scoreboard. If I work hard, or pray the right prayer--then I will feel better, get more, or be happier. And when reality doesn’t meet that demand? Frustration and negativity spiral. Instead, we need to let presence—not results—be our anchor. I don’t need to fix the day. I don’t even need it...

Welcome back to the podcast--today we are piggy backing off of my last episode, Pit, Purpose + Redemption and this is PART TWO! So if you missed it, take a look back and have a listen to catch you up with this weeks episodes where we continue to discuss that not every pitfall we experience is discipline. But every pitfall can become discipleship. Sarah gives practical tools on what to do when you...

Pit, Purpose + Redemption:  When I think about the valleys or the pits in my own life and I think, will they ever end? God will bring his hand of reprieve for a time and its beautiful and I am reminded and even more convinced of His goodness. But why is it that I seem to fall back into these pitiful places time and time again? The purpose of this episode is to shed light on God's redemptive go...

What is Faith? Faith isn’t having every step mapped out or being certain of the outcome—its choosing to step anyway. It’s the surrender of, “I don’t know what I am doing” paired with the courage of , “But I am showing up anyway. ” That kind of trust requires humility (acknowledging your limits) and boldness (acting despite of them). I really think God delights in that posture. Scripture often show...

Let’s talk about dreaming after disappointment. Maybe you're in a season where dreaming feels super hard and sticking your neck out one last time is the last thing you want to do. Because for some of us maybe our biggest battle isn’t disappointment, it’s over yielding out of disappointment, it’s mistaking numbness for peace and trading risk for relief and then calling that faith. But let me te...

Welcome back to the podcast. Today on Episode 9 we are talking all things surrendered desire + bold faith and the paradox that can come with dreaming big with God. If you know me, you know I am a dreamer at heart. But sometimes dreaming big can land us disappointed and desires left unmet. This episode will challenge you to continue to declare God's faithfullness even if you don't get the t...

The eternal reward of God’s work far outweighs temporary success on earth. Your desire for impact, influence, and fruit may feel unmet now, but your perserverence in faith, love, and service is eternal. So if you’re in a waiting season—the fruit may not fully manifest now, but God is recording it in his hall of faith.  But here is what I am learning. Maybe the point isn’t always to see the fruit r...

I can pour in, and I can be poured into. I can lean in close, and I can step back andbreathe. I can engage fully, and I can retreat to be renewed. I can be present,and I can find reprieve. I can hold space for others, and I can hold space formyself. What cultural Christianity often sounds like: A good mom sacrifices everything with a smile. If you're weary, you're probably not spiritual en...

Welcome back! Today we are asking ourselves the question if what we are building, is it kingdom-building or self-building? Especially when the things we are building look good on paper, like launching a coaching business or a podcast or even hosting retreats. The original idea came from some thoughts that I had been wrestling with personally, like how do I discern if I am making life about me, my...

If you’re struggling with a chronic condition, an unmet need or just feeling blind sighted--listen, the kingdom of God is built for the broken. It is made for the ones who fall and cry out again. For the ones who don’t “graduate” from needing a savior. For the ones who don’t always rise strong but rise surrendered. You do not have to love the road you are walking on to walk it with courage. You do...

Welcome to our second episode on the Becoming Podcast and today we are going to tackle the subject of discovering our purpose and calling while also unpacking that we will always be wrestling with these feelings of insatiability or that longing for more on this journey called life And not just purpose and calling but the longings of our heart, the desires unfulfilled and sometimes, if you're like...

Welcome to the podcast--today we are diving into something that been stirring in my own heart: how do we build a kingdom fruit-filled life in the midst of daily schedules and toddler meltdowns? For me, it’s often easy to abide with the Lord in the early mornings—when the house is quiet, His presence feels near, and I can sense His spirit so tangibly. But as the day unfolds, with all its demands an...

Raising a family is kingdom work—one of the must under praised and overlooked, but also one of the most important roles in the kingdom. But how do we learn to navigate both the dreams in our heart while juggling life at home? The truth is, you cannot do it all. But the good news? You were never meant to. God does not ask you to be everything to everyone. He simply asks you to say “yes” to whats yo...

Welcome to our very first episode on the Becoming Podcast and Sarah, your host is talking about the mundane of life and how we will always have the mundane in our daily walk and we will always have hidden seasons. Sarah shares about becoming faithful in the little and showing up when no one sees, being consistent in the hidden places--whether that's in parenting, creating or simply staying present...
