Wondering if it’s God’s voice—or just your own thoughts? Feel spiritually disconnected and overwhelmed with the noise of life? Does life feel too busy to sit still, let alone journal or pray? Are you craving a daily, authentic relationship with God—but not sure how to build it? I’m so glad you’re here. This podcast will help you create consistent space to hear God’s voice, deepen your relationship with Him, and grow spiritually and emotionally—without pressure or perfection. Hi, I’m Jenny! I’m a journal-loving Jesus follower who’s been where you are—longing to hear God’s voice but unsure how to make space for it. I’ve battled depression and obsessive thought patterns, wrestled through seasons of doubt, and spent years bouncing between burnout and self-help overload. I knew I wanted a deeper walk with God… but while others made hearing Him seem easy, I struggled to actually hear Him for myself. That’s when I discovered how simple, Spirit-led journaling could create daily rhythms that helped me slow down, listen, and connect with God—right in the middle of ordinary life. Now I’m here to help you do the same. Whether you’re in a life transition, rebuilding your faith rhythms, or just craving spiritual clarity, this podcast will meet you with grace and practical tools to help you move forward. If you’re ready for intentional connection, honest growth, and actually hearing God in your everyday life… grab your journal and let’s dig in.

    Why God Gave You Needs (And What Happens When You Outsource Them to AI) | 60

    AI is changing our world quicker than any of us realize or are ready for, and it is impacting our relationship with God and ability to hear His voice. AI makes big promises about meeting our needs and making our lives better, but what if our neediness was a gift and not a burden to shrug off as quickly as possible? Through the lens of Wendell Berry's work on community and place, we'll look at how limits and needs are actually part of the groundwork God laid in the human race for deep relationship. When we ignore those limits and seek the quickest and most convenient ways possible to meet those needs, what do we miss out on? This episode gets practical for your discernment and faith journey with biblical encouragement and a very needed reframe in our digital distracted age. In a world that pulls at our hearts from all directions, Jesus is inviting us into depth of relationship that no man-made machine can match.  Make sure to sign up for our newsletter at laurentpaperco.com/newsletter for weekly journal prompts sent straight to your inbox!

    Journaling & Discernment: How Writing Helps You Hear God More Clearly | Diana Marie Cummings | 56

    Have you ever felt spiritually stuck, distant from God, or unsure whether what you're hearing is actually his voice? In this second part of my conversation with Diana Marie of Circle Time for the Soul, we get into the heart of discernment and faith journaling, and how putting pen to paper can be one of the most powerful tools for deepening your trust in God. Diana shares the story behind her For the Soul Prayer Journal, born out of one of her hardest and loneliest seasons, and how journaling became the anchor that kept her consistent in prayer and rooted in scripture. We also talk about what it actually looks like to take that first step of faith when you're not yet sure you're hearing God clearly, and why biblical encouragement from a community of believers matters more than we often realize. If scripture feels distant right now or your faith feels like it's running on empty, this episode will remind you that God is closer than you think and his voice is closer than you realize. Remember that journal prompts for each episode can be found in our weekly newsletter! laurentpaperco.com/newsletter   Connect with Diana!

    Consistency in Your Faith: How Holy Habits Help You Recognize God's Voice | Diana Marie Cummings | 55

    What does it actually look like to build a consistent, daily rhythm with God, and how do those rhythms help you discern his voice more clearly? In this episode, I sit down with Diana Marie, host of the Circle Time for the Soul podcast, to talk about holy habits: what they are, how Jesus modeled them for us, and how simple practices like being in the Word, journaling, and community can anchor your faith in every season. Whether you're just starting out in your faith journey or looking to go deeper in your biblical encouragement, this conversation will meet you right where you are. Diana shares how consistency doesn't mean perfection, how to find a rhythm that fits your season, and how immersing yourself in scripture is the foundation for everything else, including learning to trust what you hear from God. This one is for you if you've been craving more stillness and a deeper connection with God in your everyday life. Connect with Diana!

    Discernment and the Vulnerability of Wanting More For Your Faith Journey | 54

    This week on Hearing God Daily, we're talking about the vulnerability of wanting a deeper faith. We're looking at the temptation to use Scripture more like a self-help book than a doorway to Jesus. We're exploring what it looks like to move from faith as a set of principles to faith as a real relationship through honest biblical encouragement from John 5 and a conversation about the discernment objections that keep us at a safe distance from God. If you're ready to stop managing God from arm's length and start trusting Him with your actual heart, this one is for you. Journal prompts are in the newsletter.

    Biblical Encouragement When the News Is Heavy: Trust in God in a World of War and Polarization | 53

    The news is heavy. War, polarization, outrage. How do you hold onto faith when the world feels like it's coming apart? In this final episode of the Quiet Series, we close with a reading from Sarah Clarkson's Reclaiming Quiet and explore what it looks like to trust in God in the middle of the apocalypse. This episode is full of biblical encouragement for the woman who is tired of the noise: tired of the outrage cycles, the fear, the heaviness. We turn to Scripture to ask: does the Christian story have anything real to say about chaos? And the answer is a resounding yes. Make sure to sign up for our weekly newsletter to get accompanying journal prompts sent straight to your inbox every Tuesday!
