Discipleship with Jesus has highs and lows, joys and sorrows. Through the power of His person and His Word, He gives us honey from the rock: sweetness to help when life gets overwhelming. I hope you'll join me as we dig into the Word and grow closer to Him, learning to taste and see that the Lord is good, no matter what happens.

    S2 E9: The Questions Jesus Asks

    Are there questions in your life you perceive the Lord asking you? As you study His Word and you see His questions...are there areas where the Lord is asking you to examine your life more deeply? In today's episode, I share how the questions the Lord has asked me as I've walked with Him have convicted and encouraged me. I also share how there have been times that my first (or second or third) response to His questions has been shame, running away, or even accusing Him of not being good or kind.  Friends I want to encourage you and challenge you in your walk with Jesus today: What questions is He asking you? Are you willing to answer them and trust Him with your life or are you running away and suspecting Him of being capricious or cruel? I pray there is much about today's episode that encourages you and turns your heart toward the God who loves you and who works both to desire and to work for His good pleasure.

    S2 Ep 8: Seasons of Waiting

    I'm back with a new episode and a major announcement! We're moving! And that means there won't be video for a while - I've had to pack. :) BUT new audio will still be on the way each week (Lord willing. 🙌🏼🙏🏼) In this episode, I'm sharing how a season of waiting and grief has deepened lessons Jesus has and is teaching me. Waiting isn't easy. Sometimes it's hard to understand. Yet the Lord is working in ways we cannot see or fathom. And there are four areas where Jesus has deepened my knowing Him and given me greater understanding of what needs to be crucified within my own life and heart... but also how He truly is with me and has not left me nor forsaken me: Waiting has taught me to value silence. Waiting has taught me that the Lord will answer, and that a lack of an answer does not mean a lack of His presence. Waiting has taught me the value of surrender.  Worship as warfare in waiting seasons is a powerful deterrent against hopelessness, despair, and the devil.  I pray this episode encourages and challenges you in your walk with Jesus!

    S2 Ep 7: John 10:10 - What Does An Abundant Life Really Mean?

    If you've spent any time in a church, you've probably heard John 10:10 quoted: "I have come that they may have life and have it more abundantly." But what does that mean? And what does it mean in the face of a thief who wants to steal, kill, and destroy? Today, I'm chatting about this verse, how the Holy Spirit deepened my understanding of it, and how I want it to truly impact my life moving forward. A rich, satisfying, and abundant life in Jesus is possible. But it often doesn't look like we think it will, or want it to.  Also, in the episode, I mention Dr. Lee Warren - I highly encourage you to listen to this episode he did with Susie Larson. I pray it ministers to you as you walk with the Lord on the journey He's laid out for you and that you find expectant hope is possible in Jesus.  Scriptures Referenced: John 10John 1:1, 1:12 3:16, chapter 8 & 11, 20:31PhilippiansMark chapters 4 and 7Romans 8:28Genesis 32:22-32Psalm 23Ezekiel 34You can find me on Instagram / Threads

    S2 Ep 6: The Goodness of God

    Most of us have probably sung the song, "Goodness of God." But what do we do with the goodness of God when it seems suspiciously absent in our lives and overflowing in the lives of others? What if, in the midst of difficulty, or even in the joys of life, we have a skewed view of God's goodness. And what if, because He is actually God, He wants to help us see how His goodness has manifested in our lives? In today's episode, I'm sharing the journey I've been on to know the Lord's goodness in a deeper way. Not only through suffering, but also in the land of the living. And I'm challenging myself - and you - to pray the prayer of Moses in Exodus 33 this week: Now then, if I have found favor in Your sight in any way, please let me know Your ways so that I may know You, in order that I may find favor in Your sight...“If Your presence does not go with us, do not lead us up from here. For how then can it be known that I have found favor in Your sight, I and Your people? Is it not by Your going with us, so that we, I and Your people, may be distinguished from all the other people who are on the face of the earth?” I truly believe that by seeking the Lord and asking Him to reveal His goodness to us, our spiritual eyes will be opened to see how the Lord has not only gone with us in our past, but how He is with us right now, and that He will continue with us in the future. I pray this episode encourages and challenges you in your discipleship walk with Jesus.  Scriptures Referenced: Exodus 33:12-20Matthew 7Psalm 27:13Galatians 6:17John 3:30You can find me on Instagram / Threads

    S2 Ep 4: Something Good Will Grow with Nicole Jacobsmeyer Part 1

    *Please note this episode deals with some serious subject matter like sexual abuse, cancer, and miscarriage. While these topics are not discussed explicitly, I encourage you to listen with discernment.* What do we do with suffering? How do we believe the Lord when it seems like  hardship, heartbreak, and trauma are in every corner in our lives? When is it appropriate to find the beauty in suffering, to see Jesus weaving the devastations of our lives together into something good? My dear friend, Nicole Jacobsmeyer is on the show today sharing her incredible testimony of surviving sexual abuse, cancer, and miscarriage. The Lord walked her through the darkness of clinical depression and in the difficulty, showed her how He brings good things, even in the difficulty of life. From these experiences, she wrote her new book, Something Good Will Grow. I pray this conversation blesses you, encourages you, and holds you wherever you are in your discipleship journey.  Scriptures Referenced: Philippians 4Genesis 45John 10Ephesians 1Pre-order Something Good Will Grow HERE.

    S2 Ep 3: Remember Who Your God Is

    In the midst of life circumstances, it can be easy to forget who the Lord is. Sometimes it's easier to focus on what is happening to us, and around us, rather than fix our eyes on the Lord.  Even when we know we can bring everything to Him: our frustration, sadness, anxiety, depression, anger, and hopelessness... we can lose sight of Who it is that holds us in the midst of these things.  In today's episode, we walk through Ephesians 1. Not from the perspective of our identity in Jesus, but from the perspective of who the Lord is, His character, and why it's out of the depth of who He is, He has done what He has done. I pray this episode encourages you wherever you are in your discipleship journey, as we all seek to mature in our faith and be held by the Lord as He leads us in His will.  Scriptures Mentioned: The Book of HabakkukRomans 1Ephesians 1Colossians 1Matthew 6Luke 8John 6Philippians 4John 3:16Ecclesiastes 3:14Read Roy Baldwin's article: The Ache of Unfinished Endings You can find me on Instagram / Threads

    S2 Ep 2: What Does It Mean to Trust In The Lord

    We've all memorized or had quoted to us the verses from Proverbs 3: Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will set your paths straight.  But what was Solomon saying to us? And what role does faith play in trusting the Lord? On today's episode I want to encourage us to examine the relationship between faith and trust, what it means to believe the Lord is who He says He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him, and examine some of our own heart attitudes towards the Lord: Do we believe He will do these things?Do we suspect or accuse the Lord of not being good?How can we reframe things so that we are not suspecting the Lord, but operating from a place of trust, faith, hope, and endurance? I pray this episode encourages you and challenges you in your walk with Jesus.  Scriptures Referenced: Proverbs 3:5-6Hebrews 11:6Matthew 17Mark 7:24-30 and Luke 18:1-8Acts 1Romans 8:28Proverbs 24:16You can find me on Instagram / Threads
