What Comes Next?

Send us Fan Mail What if the season that feels most uncertain is the one God is using to prepare you? When a chapter closes and you don't know what comes next, it's easy to feel stuck, forgotten, or unsure of your purpose. But throughout Scripture, some of God's greatest servants experienced long seasons of waiting before they stepped into what God had prepared for them. In this episode, we explore the stories of Joseph, Moses, David, and Jesus, and what they teach us about trusting God when life doesn't make sense. This conversation builds on last week's episode about value—where we explored what happens when we lose sight of our worth and rediscover that our value comes from God, not from what we do. This week, we ask the next question: What happens when you've accepted that truth, but you still don't know what comes next? If you're navigating loss, change, disappointment, or uncertainty, this episode is a reminder that God hasn't forgotten you, He isn't finished with you, and your waiting season is not wasted. 📖 Key Scriptures: Genesis 50:20, Psalm 27:14, Isaiah 40:31, Philippians 1:6 #ChristianPodcast #FaithInWaiting #TrustGod #ChristianEncouragement #Purpose Support the show ========================================= Support the show - simply follow the link below. https:/www.buymeacoffee.com/themuddycross ========================================= Like listening to us? - Why not watch us too https://www.youtube.com/@TheMuddyCrossPodcast ========================================= Visit our website https://www.themuddycross.com =========================================

Do You Have Value?

Send us Fan Mail What happens when everything you used to define yourself is taken away? In this deeply personal episode, Dee shares his journey through losing a business, battling illness, and wrestling with feelings of worth and identity. Together, Dee and Jodie explore what the Bible says about value, purpose, and why God’s love for us isn’t based on our performance. If you’ve ever questioned your worth because of loss, disappointment, failure, or changing circumstances, this conversation is for you. Featuring: Matthew 3, Isaiah 43:1, Romans 5:8, Philippians 1:6, and the Prodigal Son. You are not your job. You are not your achievements. You are not your failures. You are loved. You are known. You are called by name.

What If Your Greatest Purpose Comes Last?

Send us Fan Mail A mighty tree spends its life growing, serving, and sheltering others, unaware that it has been created for a purpose far greater than it could ever imagine. Through seasons of growth, loss, suffering, and waiting, this story explores a question many of us wrestle with: What if the difficult seasons in our lives are preparing us for something eternal? This is a moving story about purpose, sacrifice, faith, and trusting God even when we cannot understand what He is doing. If you've ever questioned the waiting, the pruning, or the pain in your own journey, this story is for you. Listen until the end.

When God Feels Distant

Send us Fan Mail After one of the hardest podcast recordings we’ve ever had… it’s finally here. This episode almost didn’t happen. Delays, broken microphones, rushing around, storage issues, low battery, switching cameras mid-recording, honestly, everything that could go wrong seemed to go wrong. But we kept pushing through because we truly believe this conversation needed to be shared. You could say the enemy didn’t want this episode out… but God had other plans. In Episode 46 of The Muddy Cross Podcast, we talk honestly about those seasons where God feels distant, when prayer feels harder, worship feels quiet, motivation disappears, and faith feels dry. If you’ve ever felt spiritually exhausted, disconnected, overwhelmed, or wondered where God is in the silence, this conversation is for you. You are not failing. God has not left you. Sometimes He speaks loudest in the quiet. “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” — Hebrews 13:5 Support the show ========================================= Support the show - simply follow the link below. https:/www.buymeacoffee.com/themuddycross ========================================= Like listening to us? - Why not watch us too https://www.youtube.com/@TheMuddyCrossPodcast ========================================= Visit our website https://www.themuddycross.com =========================================

Falling into Sin

Send us Fan Mail In this episode we talk honestly about sin — not as theory, but as something we all wrestle with in daily life. We explore why we often repeat the same patterns, what Scripture says about the human heart, and how that affects prayer and repentance. We reflect on passages like Jeremiah 17:9, Romans 7, 1 John 1:9, and Matthew 26:41, and what they reveal about weakness, dependence, and God’s grace. This isn’t about pretending we have it all together. It’s about being honest with God, learning to depend on Him, and understanding that grace meets us daily — even in struggle.

Have we actually changed… or just become more religious?

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, Dee and Jodie dive into a challenging but honest conversation about the difference between looking Christian and actually being transformed from the inside out. It’s easy to fall into routines, follow the “right” habits, and still feel disconnected from God. We talk about: The difference between religion and real heart change Why behaviour shifts faster than inner transformation The tension between doing the “right things” and feeling spiritually distant How comparison, routine, and performance can quietly replace relationship The truth that real change is slower, deeper, and often less visible than we expect Through personal reflections and scripture—including 1 Samuel 16:7, Romans 12:2, Matthew 7:21, and more—we unpack what it really means to be transformed, not just outwardly, but internally. This episode isn’t about judgement—it’s about honesty. It’s about asking the hard questions: Am I just going through the motions? Am I actually closer to God… or just consistent with routine? What is God still trying to change in me? You’re not finished—but you’re not the same either.
