    Your Life Doesn't Have to be Like Theirs

    Have you ever scrolled on social media, saw someone else's "perfect" life and felt that sting—like yours just wasn't measuring up? Comparison hits hard. It robs our joy, breeds envy and whispers that God shortchanged us. But it doesn't have to win. In today's episode, we’re tackling the comparison trap head-on: why it’s everywhere, what the Bible says about it and real, practical ways to choose contentment and celebrate God's unique plan for YOU.

    Finding Delight in the Word of God

    Be honest: When was the last time you opened your Bible and felt... excited? Like, truly delighted—like it was your favorite novel you couldn't put down, or a letter from someone you love deeply? Too often, reading God's Word feels like a box you check Something we know we should do, but it doesn't always light a fire in our souls. But what if it could? In today's episode of our spiritual disciplines series, we're diving into the spiritual discipline of reading the Word of God. We'll explore why so many of us struggle to read Scripture consistently, practical ways to rediscover that delight and how this one discipline can transform your walk with Jesus. Stick around—this could change how you approach your Bible forever.

    A Heart for the Nations: Dominican Republic

    In this episode, we take a deep dive into God’s heart for the nations and what it means to live on mission—whether across the globe or in our own backyard. I share powerful moments and lessons from my recent mission trip to the Dominican Republic, where I witnessed firsthand how God is moving among His people in beautiful, transformative ways. This trip reminded me that the gospel is for everyone, everywhere. This is going to be part of a four-part series on missions, as I dive into my Kenya trip and Scripture too. We will also have a panel of some of my close friends for my recent Guatemala trip coming soon!
