Send us Fan Mail What do you do when you sense God asking you to take a step, but you have no idea where that step will lead? If you’re anything like Denisha, you’d love for God to hand you a five-year plan in a three-ring binder, complete with color-coded tabs. But often, God doesn’t give us the whole roadmap. Instead, He invites us to stay close, listen for His voice, and trust Him with the next step. In this special episode of Living the Reclaimed Life, Denisha is switching seats and becoming the guest. This conversation originally aired on Zach Imboden’s Full Life Coaching podcast, and Zach graciously gave us permission to share it with the Reclaimed Story community. Zach is a pastor, leadership and marriage coach, and spiritual director who helps leaders, couples, and ministry teams cultivate lives rooted in God’s presence rather than the pressure to perform. He is passionate about prayer, spiritual formation, and helping people experience the full life Jesus promised. Together, Zach and Denisha talk honestly about what it means to trust God in seasons of uncertainty. They explore discernment, fear, control, obedience, and the wrestling that can happen when God’s invitation takes us somewhere we never expected. Denisha shares moments from her own journey when God asked for her yes, from reconnecting with her biological father after 30 years, to stepping onto a stage when she would have preferred the back row, to eventually starting Reclaimed Story. Again and again, she has discovered that obedience doesn’t always come with understanding first. Sometimes you have to put your feet in the water before you see God part it. In this episode, you’ll hear about: Why faith is less about knowing the destination and more about trusting the One who is leading youHow relationship with God becomes the foundation for discernmentWhat to do when you’re afraid you might make the “wrong” decisionWhy God is bigger than our decisionsThe prayer Denisha has been asking in uncertain seasons: “Jesus, what are You inviting me into?”How curiosity can help us release our demand for certaintyWhy wrestling with God can still be part of a trusting relationshipHow past experiences of God’s faithfulness help us take the next stepWhat it means to become so convinced of God’s goodness that, even when we wrestle, our hearts keep coming back to yesMaybe you’re facing a career change, a new opportunity, grief, a relationship decision, a calling that feels bigger than you, or simply a next step you cannot quite see. You don’t have to know where the path is going when you know the character of the One you’re following. As Denisha shares in this conversation, certainty isn’t found in knowing exactly what comes next. It is found in knowing Who you are clinging to.
