    069 Pruned to Flourish: Trusting God in Wilderness Seasons with Melia Chapman (Part 2)

    In Part 2 of this powerful conversation on We’re Talkin’ About with Kaley Gray, Melia Chapman and I dive deeper into the biblical process of pruning and flourishing and how God uses uncomfortable, wilderness-like seasons to produce lasting fruit in our lives.We explore pruning as a journey to fruitfulness, where God lovingly cuts away what’s dead, overgrown, or misaligned. Not to harm us, but to help us grow. When we want a “new us,” we quickly realize we can’t transform ourselves without surrendering to the Master Gardener. Every cut holds purpose, every cut carries promise, and every cut leads to deeper flourishing when we trust God’s hand.This episode unpacks how pruning seasons can cause us to form our own “truths,” why obedience and trust go hand in hand, and how things can look fine on the outside while quietly collapsing on the inside growth that doesn’t happen overnight. Rooted in scripture like Jeremiah 29:13, this conversation encourages listeners to seek God wholeheartedly, trust Him through resistance, and believe that even wilderness seasons are designed for flourishing. Joy, contentment, and fruitfulness are possible in every circumstance when we remain rooted in Him.If you’re walking through pruning, longing for growth, or learning how to bear fruit with joy despite challenges, this episode will encourage you to trust the process and the Gardener who wastes nothing.Connect with Melia:https://www.facebook.com/melia.chapmanOrder a copy of Rooted and Restored: https://a.co/d/3nH4ZXOConnect Here:⁠https://www.instagram.com/kaleyagray/⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/MissKaleyGray/ ⁠Subscribe on YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQHkLMwvU32yvNbXhRCjgmQ⁠*I do not own rights to this music. #trustgod #waitingongod #christianencouragement

    068 How Healing Your Roots Changes Everything with Melia Chapman - Part 1

    In this powerful episode of We’re Talkin’ About with Kaley Gray, my guest Melia Chapman joins us for a deep, heartfelt conversation about what it truly means to be planted, grown, and ultimately restored by God. We explore the honest tension of being placed in seasons that feel dark, disappointing, or confusing. Even during times when it seems like we’ve been buried, but what if we’ve actually been planted instead? Melia unpacks the analogy of soil, growth, and spiritual formation in a way that is both relatable and refreshing. Together, we talk about those seasons when your roots feel stuck in cement: hard, unmovable, and far from the rich, black soil you wish you were planted in. Yet even when the ground beneath your feet feels undesirable, Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us that God is intentional with our placement. Everything you need to flourish has already been placed inside you, and even in unexpected soil, you can encounter God in ways you never imagined. We dive into: • Purpose in your placement. How God uses difficult soil, hard transitions, and stretching seasons to refine you, deepen your roots, and prepare you for greater. • Practical pictures of where we go to satisfy our deepest desires and how the “nutrients” we choose shape our growth. • The power of the voice you listen to and the reality of how that voice you believe will determine the future you experience. • Why undesirable soil can actually be the very ground God intends for you to flourish in even when you don’t understand it at the time. Melia reminds us to pay attention to who is holding the watering can in our lives, because the enemy loves planting weeds of busyness, comparison, and confusion. Yet God, the Master Gardener, desires to till the soil of our hearts, soften what’s become hardened, and bring a 100-fold return that only He can produce. If you’re longing for clarity, growth, or a fresh sense of purpose in your season, this episode will encourage you to trust God with where you’re planted and to believe that He wastes nothing in your becoming.
