    The Only Reason We Have Faith (A Follow Up to "When God Seems Cruel")

    On today's episode I talk about the conversation I had with Devin Wilbourn, the heaviest and most emotionally charged episode we have done on this podcast so far, and the things that have been sitting with me ever since. If you haven't listened to both parts of that interview yet, go back and start there, because today is kind of an addendum to it. I talk about what it was like to sit across from someone who was essentially a stranger to me and hear his story for the first time right alongside you, how hearing someone else give language to the things I have been wrestling with made me feel less crazy, and where the line is between validation that helps and validation that keeps us stuck in the pit. I also admit that neither of us did the best job of ending that interview in hope and I think that's okay.  That's what I touch on today in Hebrews 6, which I stumbled into earlier in the week and realized it was the ending I couldn't find in that interview. Our hope comes from the promise that God the faithful one is not unfair. He is not cruel. I talk about why a warning about apostasy sits right before this promise, why I would rather be soft clay in his hands than hardened and fired in the kiln, and the fact that Abraham, of all people, is cited as the example of strong faith and patient endurance. Because that's the whole thing. It was never Abraham's faith. It was God giving Abraham his faith. We hide ourselves in HIS faithfulness, not our own. Our anchor of hope is fastened to the mercy seat, and the mercy seat is Jesus. So the most honest prayer you can pray is one of humility - I don't have what I need to get through this situation and God, you are the only one who can give me the faith, hope and peace to make it through.

    When God Seems Cruel | Part II w/ Devin Wilbourn

    This week we are back with Part 2 of my conversation with Devin Wilbourn, husband, father, entrepreneur and founder of The Quiet Church. If you have not listened to Part 1 yet, go back and start there, because this one picks up right where we left off and goes even deeper. On this episode, Devin shares about the season when the Lord told him he couldn't work for money, what that obedience cost him, and the unexpected loss of his parents. He tells us what the Lord said to him in the middle of that grief and how a relationship with grief will sacrifice your future to your past while a relationship with Jesus will tell you the hard thing that hurts. Devin also opens up about the moment he was ready to give up his calling, being told by the Lord that he was ungrateful, and the revelation that the standard was never just forgiveness, but love. If there is one thing to take from this conversation, it's that you keep showing up and you get ruthlessly honest with God. He will never turn you away.

    When God Seems Cruel | Part I w/ Devin Wilbourn

    This week I am so excited to have my very first out-of-town guest on the podcast! Devin flew in from San Antonio, Texas to sit on the couch with me for one of the most cathartic conversations yet. Devin is a husband, father, entrepreneur and the founder of The Quiet Church, a ministry that started almost by accident on TikTok and YouTube. He brings so much honesty and a testimony that had both of us reaching for the tissues. On this episode, we discuss how the Lord told Devin to start preaching on his 40th birthday while his business was falling apart, the day he sat in his driveway watching his car get repossessed and wondering if God was even real, why it took him two years to open his Bible again, and the difference between pride and ego. Devin also opens up about his struggle with addiction and the revelation that resistance requires energy. We aren't meant to hold the weight of saying no all day, every day. Sometimes the most freeing thing we can do is put boundaries in place and remember that even the faith we have in God comes from Him. This conversation was too good to fit into one episode, so make sure you come back next week for Part 2!

    Befriending The Exact Thing I'm Trying To Avoid

    On today's episode I talk about shifting my perspective to have more gratitude for the podcast, the vulnerable space that's been created, friendships and the work of the Holy Spirit happening in subtle ways.  I also discuss the book I began reading, Hinds Feet on High Places, and specifically the two companions God appoints as guides to the main character. The companions, sorrow and suffering are the things I (and most of us) try to actively avoid, but in relationship with Jesus they are the two things we almost need to embrace the most. To be more like Him and to go where He has asked of us we cannot avoid sorrow and suffering but must walk hand in hand with them- befriending our once perceived enemies in order to protect us from our actual enemies.

    Who Am I? (Decoupling From Past Versions of Yourself)

    On today's episode I discuss why this season is especially hard and emotional. God is saying that we can't take our metaphorical Egypt and the ways we coped and survived there with us where we're going. We feel exhausted and restless within ourselves becuase the versions made out of survival have now become a part of us and attached themselves to our identity. Decoupling the version of you that exists from the version of you that God created is painful work.  I also discuss how there should never be shame in seeking or asking for clinical help to build a better and more healed version of yourself and your relationship and intimacy with God. Comparisons of traumas and thoughts of "am I really bad enough to warrant needing counseling?" can creep in, however, someone else's hardship or your lack of doesn't justify you not needing outside help. Therapy can be an extremely pivotal and vital part of our journeys navigating an imperfect world.

    When God Doesn't Meet Your Expectations

    Today we dive into unmet expectations and how difficult it is when your frustrations lie with God, not just with other people who have let you down. I share how hard it can be when He goes quiet or doesn't meet you or show up as you would prefer. I discuss holding the tension while still showing up and seeking God and how doing so honestly only helps further your relational intimacy with Him.  GOT QUESTION LINKS: https://www.gotquestions.org/Bible-expectations.html https://www.gotquestions.org/disappointment-with-God.html SCRIPTURES OF THE WEEK: Proverbs 13:12 Galatians 6:9 Use Code "SHEEP10" For 10% OFF Your first merchandise order!

    One Hebrew Word Changed Everything

    On this week's episode we dive into one Hebrew word that changed the significance of the Passover Story in Exodus and how we interpret how Christ died for us in the New Testament. Teachings like this aren't meant to make us haughty in our own knowledge and intelligence but to come into a deeper revelation, love and gratitude for the nature and character of God. His love, mercy and grace for us, his children, are consistent from Genesis to Revelation.  SCRIPTURE OF THE WEEK: Exodus 12:12-13 BIBLE PROJECT VIDEO: https://youtu.be/14x_PtlnJHw?si=nPk9zMJzGbnyD1Uu Use Code "SHEEP10" For 10% OFF Your first merch order!
