• 41. Faith Talks: Purpose + Self Sabotage
    Sep 27 2024

    In today’s episode, I’m diving into the topic of *self-sabotage*—something so many of us struggle with, even when God gives us clear direction. When we treat our God ideas as small we minimize His gifts and we limit His power in our lives. Self-sabotage creeps in through perfectionism, procrastination, and imposter syndrome, creating a cycle of insecurity and isolation.


    God has equipped us with the power and tools to succeed, but we need to believe in Him and ourselves. Let this be the season we stop fumbling our future and gambling with our gifts!

  • 40. What is My Purpose?: Discovering God's Design for Your Life
    Sep 20 2024

    In this episode, we dive into a topic that resonates with so many people: purpose and identity. Many of us are searching for clarity in our purpose, and today, we’ll explore how our purpose is inseparable from our identity in Christ.


    I share some of my personal journey of seeking answers in the wrong places, like new age practices, and how God’s grace led me back to Him. We’ll talk about the dangers of trying to find purpose outside of God and the importance of understanding who we are in Christ before we can fully walk in our purpose.


    Your purpose is to glorify God through your life and actions. Your unique gifts and assignments are meant to fulfill that purpose, but they begin with knowing your identity as a child of God.


    If you’ve been asking, "What’s my purpose?"—start by learning your identity in Christ. Everything else will flow from that.

    Sep 13 2024

    In this episode, I discuss what the spirit of fear truly is and where it comes from. Referencing 2 Timothy 1:7 we uncover the true nature behind the spirit of fear. This spirit is traced back to the enemy starting in Genesis. We learn how the enemy has always used our senses—what we hear and see—to incite fear and doubt in our hearts. Join me as we learn practical ways to guard your heart, pray for boldness, and stand firm in God’s truth. Fear will not win!

  • 38. Fear of Change & Letting Go: The Rich Young Ruler’s Dilemma
    Aug 30 2024

    In this episode, we explore the story of the Rich Young Ruler in Mark 10:17-22, which challenges us to examine what we're holding onto that might be keeping us from fully following Christ. Are we willing to let go and make the necessary changes, or are we clinging to possessions, plans, or relationships?


    This passage has revealed the struggle many of us face when God calls us to make difficult changes. Jesus promises that whatever we lose for His sake, we'll gain back a hundredfold. So, what are we really afraid of?


    Join me as we tackle these questions and challenge ourselves to trust God's intentions.

  • 37.Fear of the Unknown: Trusting God in Uncertain Times
    Aug 23 2024

    In this episode of our Fear Series, we're diving deep into the fear of the unknown—one of the enemy's most powerful tools to keep us paralyzed and away from our God-given purpose. We'll explore how the fear of uncertainty can lead to intimidation and compromise, drawing lessons from the lives of Saul and David. While Saul failed in his faith, turning to demonic sources in his desperation, David sought strength in God despite overwhelming circumstances.


    Are you trying to control your narrative like Saul, or are you surrendering to God's plan like David? Let's talk about how to combat this fear with God's help and why trusting Him, even when the path isn't clear, is the key to overcoming the unknown.


    📖 Scriptures Referenced:

    - Numbers 13:30-33

    - 1 Samuel 28:5-19

    - 1 Samuel 30:3-8

  • 36. Fear of Conflict: Tackling Life's Uncomfortable Battles
    Aug 16 2024

    In this episode, we tackle the fear of conflict—something inevitable but often dreaded. At the heart of every great fictional story is conflict, but in real life it’s not always easy to handle.


    Recently, God has been teaching me how to navigate these moments of conflict with grace, showing that conflict can be holy when approached with the right heart. We'll explore different ways people handle conflict, how the enemy uses it to create division, and how Jesus' example teaches us to address it with purpose and peace.


    Join me as we learn to resolve conflicts in a Christlike way, attacking the problem, not the person. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and leave a 5-star review.

  • 34. Fear of God: Getting Wisdom, Strategy, and Protection
    Jul 26 2024

    What is the fear of God and why do we need it? It protects us, gives us wisdom, and covers us in the midst of chaos. God will no longer serve those who refuse to fear Him above all else. Those who have fear of the Lord are His children, and it would be wise to stay the course with Him so that you can be protected and redeemed like the Israelites in the book of Esther. Fear of God is tied to obedience. In this season, let’s learn to obey the warnings of God and seek Him for answers before relying on our earthly wisdom and busyness.
