    49 | I Lost 2,000 Subscribers When God Redirected My Writing

    Send me a message! What do you do when God asks you to walk away from everything you’ve built? In this week’s episode, I’m getting real about the season that changed everything for me as an author—the moment God told me to pivot from writing archaeological thrillers for the general market to Christian mystery suspense for faith-based readers. It wasn’t an easy transition. But what I gained in obedience and purpose was worth far more than any number on a screen. If you’ve ever felt God tugging your heart toward a new direction—especially after you’ve already invested years into your current path—this episode is for you. We’re talking about: How to know if a pivot is really from God or just your own restlessnessThe difference between divine redirection and distractionWhat to do when obedience costs you visibility, readers, or incomeHow to rebuild your author platform with faith at the centerWhy nothing you’ve built is wasted when God is the one leading the changeThis isn’t just about writing. It’s about surrender. About trusting that God’s plans for your creative calling are bigger, bolder, and more eternal than the brand you’ve built on your own. If you’re standing at a crossroads, wondering if you should follow God into a new season—grab your coffee and join me for an honest, hope-filled conversation about obedience, loss, and divine purpose in your writing journey. 👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!

    48 | Are You Writing For God or With God?

    Send me a message! You dedicate your books to God, but does your writing process still feel like striving? What if your daily writing sessions could become sacred encounters where you meet with Him—not just tasks you're trying to complete for Him? In this episode, we're exploring the profound difference between writing for God and writing with God. Discover how to transform your writing from performance-driven work into an act of worship, where the process itself becomes the offering. You'll learn five practical, Spirit-led practices to make your writing sessions sacred: starting with stillness instead of strategy, writing one sentence as an offering, releasing outcomes before you write, turning your editing into prayer, and ending with gratitude instead of assessment. If you're tired of the anxiety, comparison, and pressure that comes with trying to create something "worthy" of God, this message will shift everything. Learn how to approach your books as altars—places where you lay down your striving and simply abide with Him. Stop performing. Start communing. Your writing is about to become worship. 👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe! Support the show 🎁 Are you called to write?

    43 | Do Low Book Sales Mean You're Less Anointed

    Send me a message! Why do we feel confident and "anointed" when book sales soar, but question our calling when they crash? If you've ever let your royalty report determine your confidence as a Kingdom writer, I have too—and you're not broken. You're human. But here's the truth: Your anointing validated you before you ever sold a single book. The confidence you're searching for in those sales numbers? You already carry it in the calling God placed on your life. In this episode, we're diving deep into why we trade our anointing for the false confidence of earnings—and how to break free. We'll unpack: Why we confuse financial abundance with God's approval (and what Scripture really says about it)The difference between operating in anointing versus striving for validationHow to step into abundance without making money your idolFour powerful shifts to anchor your confidence in your calling, not your cash flowWhat it looks like to keep writing boldly when bills are due and sales are downPractical boundaries for when anointing and abundance do align This isn't about choosing between spiritual calling and financial success—it's about learning to steward both without letting either become your master. It's about discovering that your anointing IS your abundance, and that's the most liberating truth you'll ever embrace as a Kingdom writer. So if you're tired of riding the emotional rollercoaster of sales-based confidence, grab your journal, settle in, and let's talk about how to root your identity where it belongs—in your irrevocable, unshakeable, dashboard-independent anointing. 👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!

    42 | How to Hear God's Voice in Your Author Business

    Send me a message! Has "hearing from God" about your author business ever led you straight into debt, disappointment, or confusion? You prayed about that expensive marketing package. You fasted over the decision to quit your job and write full-time. You were absolutely certain God was opening that door. But months later, you're broke, discouraged, and wondering how you could have been so wrong about hearing His voice. The crushing truth? Sometimes what we think is God's voice is actually our own desperation, the enemy's deception, or wishful thinking dressed up in spiritual language. And when every business decision feels "spiritual," the stakes—and potential for mistakes—skyrocket. In this episode, discover the 5 biblical tests that distinguish God's true voice from everything else competing for your attention. Learn to identify the four specific deceptions that target Christian authors. Plus, understand the critical difference between legitimate business deadlines and manipulative urgency tactics that drown out God's voice. You'll learn: The Scripture Test that immediately exposes counterfeit "words from God"Why mixed results from the 5 tests actually mean something importantHow to recognize when "holy urgency" is actually human panicThe difference between God's peace and emotional excitementWhy God keeps some platforms small (and it's not punishment)When deadlines are legitimate vs. when they're manipulationStop building your author business on misheard whispers. Learn to recognize the Good Shepherd's voice with confidence. 👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!
