    159. Hearers or Doers? | James 1:19-27

    What proves real transformation? In this episode, we walk verse-by-verse through Epistle of James 1:19–27 and uncover what James says true faith actually looks like. It’s not just hearing the Word. It’s not just knowing theology. It’s not outward religious performance. James confronts us with the evidence of genuine transformation: – Quick to listen – Slow to speak – Slow to anger – Doers of the Word – Care for the vulnerable – Lives unstained by the world We unpack: • Why human anger hinders righteousness • What it means to humbly receive the implanted Word • The danger of self-deception • What “pure and faultless religion” truly is Trials don’t just test endurance. They reveal what’s rooted. The question isn’t “Did I learn something?” It’s “What will I do with what I’ve heard?” ✨ LINKS 👉 Download the James Verse by Verse Study Companion: https://www.thefindingfreedomco.com/shop/p/james 👉 The Finding Freedom Co.

    158. Why God Allows Trials | James 1:1–18

    In this episode, we begin our verse-by-verse study through the Epistle of James by walking through James 1:1–18.James writes to believers who have been scattered, persecuted, and stripped of the stability they once knew. Instead of offering shallow encouragement, he gives them truth: trials have purpose.In this passage we talk about:• Why believers face trials • What the testing of faith actually produces • The difference between testing and temptation • How to ask God for wisdom in difficult seasons • Why doubt leads to instability • The danger of trusting in wealth instead of Christ • The promise of the crown of life • God’s unchanging character and His good giftsIf you are walking through a hard season, this passage reframes suffering in a powerful way. God is not absent in trials, He is refining His people through them.✨ Subscribe for weekly faith-filled encouragement and practical tools for your walk with God, homeschool encouragement, and life in Hawaii as a military family ❤️✨ Follow along on Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok: @brookecollins09 & @thefindingfreedomco✨ LINKS👉 The Finding Freedom Co.

    156. When God Asks You to Let Go | A Candid Life & Ministry Update

    This episode is different. Over the past several months, God has been doing a quiet but uncomfortable work in my heart, stripping away striving, productivity-driven identity, and even good things that had slowly taken His place. In this candid update, I’m sharing what life has looked like lately, what God has been revealing, and why I made the difficult decision to close the Finding Freedom Co. membership, even when it didn’t make sense on paper. We talk about: Living in a season where nothing feels “productive” Wrestling with identity, obedience, and surrender When good things become misaligned What it looks like to be faithful when God has you “on the bench” The changes coming to the Finding Freedom Co. Podcast and ministry This episode isn’t about reinvention or rebranding.It’s about repentance, obedience, and making room for God to lead. At the end, I share what’s next, including a new, slower, Scripture-first approach to studying the Bible together. LINKS: ⁠Join The Finding Freedom Co.

    154. Faith When Life Feels Unsteady (Finding Stability in God’s Word)

    When life feels unsteady, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually, faith can feel harder to hold. In this episode, we talk honestly about what faith looks like in seasons of uncertainty. Not faith as confidence or clarity, but faith as trust when answers are incomplete and life feels unsettled. We explore: Why unsteady seasons often shake our faith What Scripture shows us about belief mixed with doubt How God meets us in dependence, not performance What it looks like to stay anchored when focus and motivation are hard This conversation also introduces our February Bible study inside the Finding Freedom Co. Membership, Faith When Life Feels Unsteady, a Scripture-driven study rooted in Hebrews 11, the Psalms, and Mark 9. If you’re navigating a season where life feels loud, uncertain, or fragile, this episode is for you. PS: Loving the podcast?
