If you told me two years ago that I would be homeschooling I would have thought you're crazy! I was farthest away from homeschooling as one could be as I was focusing on my business and what creative outlets would be best for my joy and peace. Little did I know that God had a plan for my family far greater than I could've imagined.
I share how I came to the conclusion of homeschooling and how this year has blessed my family in ways I couldn't even imagine.
Whether you're a homeschool mom, thinking about it or not even close, I pray my journey to will inspire you as you raise your children.

Not in the world, not in the family, not in the church, and not even in your own self.

The world continues to try to keep our voices silent and our past experiences can keep us from using it altogether, but God is calling forth His sons and daughters to step out in boldness and speak.
I know, I know.. it's easier said than done. I've been there, and still walking through it to feel more comfortable speaking in front of people. But we have a choice- stay complacent in our comfort or step out in faith knowing that He's there with us. What's it going to be?
In this episode I share my personal experience with feeling unable to share my thoughts, opinions, faith and especially messages, but how I have overcome. And how you can too!

In this episode today, I share a personal struggle that has helped me to lean in greater to the Lord's joy. In times of weakness or in times of struggle it can be easy to fall under the weight of it all.

The Church, as the body of Christ, is at a crossroads.
Will we continue to look to people or prominent figures on stage for guidance, approval and theology or will we finally step into the identity and purpose the church was created for. We all have a part to play, as the church, and in this episode I get to chat with Myles and Dee MacCloskey, pastors of The Freedom House, as they give a look into the state of the Church in America. Myles also offers advice on how to choose the right church for you and some red flags to keep in mind when searching for a church home.
We hope you enjoy and find the community that helps you grow in your faith and in relationship with the Lord.
Be blessed.

As I continue to share dreams and visions the Lord has shown me the past couple years, I want to encourage you to go back to the previous episodes, if you haven't already. This will give you a better understand of my heart behind sharing these and the Lord's will through each one.

WELCOME BACK!! to a brand new podcast name and purpose. I took the last year to focus on other ministry projects and prayer movements the Lord had me begin but He has been urging me to get back on here to share and amplify prophetic voices of our time. We are in an important season as believers; will we be shaken along with the world or will we stand strong in our identity and authority in Christ?
In this first episode, I share an update on what the Lord has been doing in my life and the lessons I've learned in the past year. From a year of preparation I can tell you it was filled with discovering more of who God is and more of who He has created me to be. Never despise the process. In the process, the gifts are established and the oil is refined.
Get a sneak peek at what to expect in terms of content and messages being shared in the coming weeks. Get ready! For what the Lord is revealing in this season and this year is not for the faint of heart but for those ready to partner with the Lord and usher in His Kingdom.
Throughout the next few months you will have a better understanding of the Biblical call for all Christians, the authority of which God has given us through Christ Jesus, the workings of the gift of Holy Spirit, hearing God's voice and understanding the prophetic.
Calling all prayer warriors and intercessors to listen in as well!

Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks and reflect on all you're grateful for. But for the remaining 364 days of the year, we should also have this heart posture as we walk into unknown seasons, times of struggle or months of triumph. No matter our circumstances the Lord's goodness remains and the hope we have in His promises should be a constant. In that, we can live a lifestyle of gratitude that not only changes our mindsets but can change our life and relationships forever. This episode is a special one where Desiree shares two practical ways to shift our hearts towards gratitude and live from a place of joy.

Grace. We all hear it. We all know it. But are we living in it? Scripture says that God's grace is sufficient, yet how often do we feel like we need to check off boxes and be perfect for His approval and love to matter. As if His grace has a measuring system. After a week of being reminded of God's grace, Desiree shares some insight into living in God's grace and living from it with love.

As we go about our days, how often do we first ask God what He wants us to do or say? It's easy to pursue relationships, careers and everything else in the way we see fit but after awhile all of that striving gets a bit stressful and hard. Why? Because we left God out of the equation to get the end results on our own. Today on the IGNITE Series, Desiree talks about trusting God and what that actually looks like for our daily life. How quick it is to take control of our destiny and not allow God's grace and Holy Spirit to work in us. Desiree shares three ways we can take steps forward to trusting God's will in our life and get on the path He wants for us. It all starts by tuning in! :)

We hear or see it on the daily, 'YOU are enough!', 'YOU can do it!', 'YOU make your dreams come true', but this mantra is impacting the core of our belief and keeps us from understanding the truth that ONLY with Jesus we are enough.

This also pertains to our dreams, goals and everyday life. Have we lost track on what God wants for us as we seek after it ourselves? Something we reflect on in this episode.

In this episode I share the story of Jesus's birth but also the immense faith it took for Mary (& Joseph) to believe in what God had told them regarding her birthing the Son of God, as a virgin nonetheless. There's something powerful to be found in every story in the Bible but the story of Jesus is the most important of all. His birth and life is a gift for all of us. To be redeemed, restored and set free from sin to live everlasting life, when we repent and believe in Him. (John 3:16) None of that could be without our main man, Jesus.
