Wonderfully Broken

You asked, I answered! 🤍  In this episode, I'm sitting down to answer your questions about faith, life, and everything in between. From the best and worst advice I've received to staying faithful during hard seasons, mentors who have impacted me, and things the Lord has been teaching me lately, we're covering a little bit of it all.  Grab a coffee and come hang out with me!

Waiting isn’t just hard; it can feel heavy, confusing, and even painful. In this episode, we’re talking about what it really looks like to wait on God. From David’s dread, to Hannah’s grief, to the Israelites’ struggle, and ultimately the beauty we see through Jesus… the Bible shows us that waiting isn’t one emotion, it’s layers. If you’ve ever found yourself asking “how long, God?” or wondering w...

Love you, guys...

In this episode, we’re talking about something I’ve been wrestling with personally… performative Christianity. Showing up. Saying the right things. Doing the “Christian” habits. But internally? Feeling disconnected. Unmotivated. Going through the motions. In this episode, I open up about where I actually am right now, not the polished version. We dive into Scripture, talk about what it looks like...

This episode is about something we don’t talk about enough, going back to the very thing you told God you’d never do again. There’s shame. There’s guilt. There’s frustration. And there’s that heavy feeling of “How did I end up here again?” But instead of hiding, spiraling, or buying into the lies that try to tell me I’ve gone too far, I’m choosing to get back up. We’re talking about what I’m medit...

In this episode, I’m walking through the story of Mary and Martha and the tension we often feel between doing and being. I’m in a season where I truly believe the Lord is calling me to sit at His feet, to slow down, to listen, and to stop striving the way Martha did. We talk through the scriptures, what I feel the Lord has been gently revealing to me, and how serving Him isn’t wrong—but it’s not m...

5 months of silence doesn’t mean absence. It means I needed space to sit with God, be honest with Him, and walk through some heavy things instead of around them. The ending of this year hasn’t been easy, and I’m still in the fire, but I’m learning that real faith isn’t pretending everything’s okay. It’s bringing God exactly how you are and trusting Him to meet you there. I’m thankful to be back. G...
