This episode is a form of story telling in a season of learning what matters the most. It’s easy to be distracted and lose focus. Here’s an episode about learning the art of rest.
Over the years, I have frequently seen and heard phrases like “walk by the Spirit”, or “crucify the flesh” as a follower of Jesus. These sorts of phrases can be a little confusing, like What exactly does flesh mean? And How exactly do I crucify the flesh and walk by the Spirit? At the end of the episode is a devotional on silencing shame. Listen in to todays episode !

Let’s talk about the concept of winning. What does it mean to win to you? Is first place what it means to win? Is first place most worthy of praise? Do you have to be first in order to win? In this episode I’m going to talk about winning. Stick around to hear about a new perspective gained while watching a bunch of marbles rolling around.

Happy Saint Patrick’s day! This episode includes an illustration that you have a hidden treasure, no need to search at the end of any rainbows! The parable of the three servants in Matthew chapter 25 tied into todays discussion as well.
This episode is a piece of writing titled : struggles in the strumming. I’ve spent this last week asking God a lot of questions, self reflecting, reading scripture and processing. I felt God pull me to stop what I was doing in the midst of the day and write about what He has been trying to teach me in this season. I’m always amazed at how sometimes the most simple things in life bring me back to my walk with God. I hope you enjoy!
This episode is about life’s unmet expectations, disappointments, and discouragement. We’ve all been in seasons that we’ve longed for better circumstances than what we are in now. When life doesn’t look how we thought it would, when efforts bring no results, when steps of faith lead to closed doors, how do we move forward towards our purpose with hope and perseverance? Listen to find out!
This episode is about finding confidence in your purpose. Last weeks episode I talked about walking towards our purpose and what it looks like learning to walk in faith. So today we will talk about what our purpose is, how to overcome hinderances keeping us from meeting our calling, and how to have confidence in God.
Learning how to walk in faith is something we have to learn to do. Salvation is immediate but sanctification is a process. Emily talks about how God guides us, and what it means to walk with him along the way as we search to find purpose for our lives.

In a culture where there are many truths, your truth, and my truth. I felt like I had to remind myself what THE TRUTH is and how to walk in it.
