    Waiting Season 💍: How to Sit Still While Waiting for God’s Promise to Unfold (Pt.3)

    Waiting Season Part 3: How to Sit Still While Waiting for God's Promise to Unfold — the final episode in Grip and Grace's Christian marriage mini-series on faith, patience, and trusting God's timing. If you're in a season of waiting, for marriage, an answered prayer, or a promise that hasn't unfolded yet, then this one's for you. In this episode, I get real about what waiting on God actually feels like, the practical habits that help me sit still instead of forcing an outcome, and the Scriptures that's carried me through the uncertainty are Psalm 27:14 and Isaiah 54:5. 🌸 Grip and Grace is a Christian podcast about control, anxiety, faith, and learning to surrender to God's will.

    Waiting Season 💍: What God Taught Me About Covenant Marriage (Pt. 2)

    Waiting Season Part 2: What God Taught Me About Covenant Marriage — continuing Grip and Grace's Christian marriage mini-series on covenant, cohabitation, and trusting God's design for marriage. This time I'm unpacking something our culture treats as basically the same thing but IS NOT — cohabitation and marriage — and how that question led me straight into a truth that changed how I see marriage completely: it was never meant to be a contract. I'm sharing what God has personally taught me about covenant, why He designed marriage to reflect who He is, and how understanding that has changed what I'm actually praying for while I wait. 🌸 Grip and Grace is a Christian podcast about control, anxiety, faith, and learning to surrender to God's will.

    Waiting Season 💍: How God Healed My Broken View of Marriage (Pt. 1)

    Waiting Season Part 1: How God Healed My Broken View of Marriage — the opening episode of Grip and Grace's Christian marriage mini-series on healing, anxious attachment, and breaking generational curses. I'm kicking off a 3-part mini-series on marriage because I wish someone had talked about this before I started dating. In this first episode, I get honest about my anxious attachment, the generational pattern I saw once I sat down with my grandma, and the exact prayer that helped me break the cycle. This one goes deeper than usual — healing, generational curses, and deciding as early as now, what I want my own marriage to look like in the future. 🌸 Grip and Grace is a Christian podcast about control, anxiety, faith, and learning to surrender to God's will.

    Everyone Wants a Village | What It Actually Takes to Build Christian Community

    We all want a village — people who show up, who know our story, who we don't have to perform for. But building real Christian community isn't as simple as wanting it. In this episode of Grip & Grace, I'm talking about why finding genuine friendship as a Christian woman can feel so hard, what's actually gotten in the way of my own village, and what it looks like to stop waiting for community to appear and start being brave enough to build it. If you've ever felt lonely in a room full of people, or wondered why "just find a small group" isn't as easy as it sounds, then this one's for you.

    Losing Worldly Friendships vs. Gaining Lifelong Christian Friendships

    I used to think losing a friendship meant I did not try hard enough to save it.

    How God Rescued Me

    Before I knew Jesus the way I know Him now, there was a season I don't usually talk about — one that looked nothing like the girl who grew up playing piano at church. This is the story of how far I drifted, and how God came looking for me anyway.

    Foundations of Faith (How I Met God)

    In this episode, I'm sharing the story of how I actually met God. Not the "grew up in church" answer, but the real one. From having Him as this abstract concept in my head, then to the moment where I first felt His presence in my life (not as an exacting God, but as a Friend).

    Welcome to Grip and Grace

    In our very first episode, I'm pulling the curtain on why this podcast exists. I'm Casi — an admitted over-planner, a researcher of everything, and someone slowly learning what it actually looks like to loosen my grip and let God's grace meet me where I am. In this episode: growing up in the church, the season I walked away from my faith, and how God led me to my wilderness season. I also share what you can expect from Grip & Grace moving forward. New episodes every Wednesday.

    Grip and Grace is for the girl who plans everything and still feels out of control — a space to talk honestly about what happens when a Type A, forever-planning personality tries to loosen her grip and let God’s grace take over. Each episode explores a different piece of that tension: control vs. surrender, striving vs. resting, anxiety vs. trust. New episodes coming soon.
