    133. When Spiritual Authority Replaces Discernment

    What do you do when spiritual advice about your relationship leaves you feeling anxious, confused, or afraid of getting it wrong? In this episode of When You Don’t Know, we talk about the tension many Christians experience when church leadership doesn’t support their relationship — not for biblical reasons, but because of feelings, preferences, or a perceived “lack of peace.” For many, this creates deep relationship anxiety and the fear that disagreeing with leaders means disobeying God. We explore: • The difference between spiritual guidance and spiritual control • Why anxiety often shows up when obedience to leaders is confused with obedience to God • How God actually leads His people — and why fear, pressure, and urgency aren’t part of His voice • What healthy spiritual leadership looks like in dating and relationships If you’ve ever felt torn between your faith, your relationship, and your own discernment, this conversation is for you. You’re not rebellious. You’re not faithless. And you’re not broken for wanting clarity and peace. 👉 Our course Silence the Noise is officially out now!

    132. When You Don’t Know If Your Callings Align

    You’re in a relationship, but you’re unsure if your callings align. “What if this means we’re not meant to be together?” “What if I’m missing God’s will?” In this episode, we talk about why uncertainty around calling creates so much anxiety in Christian relationships, and why not having clarity doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong. We also discuss how fear can disguise itself as discernment, and how to approach questions about calling without spiraling into overthinking. You’re not broken. You’re not behind. And you didn’t ruin God’s plan. Hope you enjoy! 👉 Our course Silence the Noise is officially out now!
