    How Do I Run My Own Race?

    In this episode, we talk about the danger of comparison in our walk with Jesus and how trying to run someone else’s race can rob us of the unique relationship God wants with us. Using stories from cross country, everyday distractions, and Scripture, we explore what it looks like to stop measuring our faith against others and start focusing on personal obedience and intimacy with Christ. The conversation dives into how performance-based faith leaves us empty, while true relationship with God brings freedom and purpose. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that God has marked out a specific race for each of us, and real fulfillment comes when we learn to trust His pace instead of chasing someone else’s.

    How Do I Walk In Freedom?

    In this episode, I share the most transformative season of my life, one marked by deep healing, unexpected breakthroughs, and a freedom I didn’t know was possible. Over the past year, God has walked me through layers of hurt, hidden wounds, and long-carried lies, gently leading me toward a freedom that isn’t earned but received. From the first Freedom Conference, to Revival Nights, to a moment of unexpected obedience in the baptism tub, this has been a journey of learning what it truly means to walk in the love and sonship of Jesus. If you’ve ever felt stuck in patterns you can’t shake, distant from God, or weighed down by your past, this episode is an invitation. Freedom isn’t fragile, and it’s not reserved for the spiritually strong, it’s for anyone willing to bring their hidden places into the light. My prayer is that as you listen, you’ll see the God who breaks chains, heals old wounds, and walks with us one step at a time into the life He’s always had for us.

    How Thirsty Are You?

    Most Christians today are spiritually malnourished but don't even know it. We've become content with spiritual "snacking"—quick prayers, rushed devotionals, Sunday services—while our souls slowly starve for genuine encounter with God. This episode confronts the uncomfortable reality: when did you last feel so desperately hungry for God that you couldn't focus on anything else? Drawing from David's deer-panting prayers and Jesus's agonizing intercession, we explore what authentic spiritual hunger looks like and why the modern church has lost it. Discover how the flesh systematically kills our appetite for God, why comfortable Christianity is spiritually deadly, and practical steps to cultivate the holy desperation that transforms prayer from duty to lifeline. We'll examine the biblical examples of believers who hungered for God with life-altering intensity and challenge you to honest self-examination about your own spiritual priorities. This isn't comfortable listening—it's a wake-up call for anyone settling for spiritual mediocrity. If your spiritual life feels routine or powerless, this episode reveals what you've been missing and how to pursue the soul-satisfying relationship with God you were created for.

    How Do We Build Meaningful Community in an Isolated World?

    Feeling lonely in a crowded room? You're not alone. In this episode, we explore the difference between being connected and truly belonging—and why so many of us feel isolated despite being more "connected" than ever. Discover how to move beyond surface-level relationships to build the kind of authentic community your soul is craving. We'll unpack practical steps for vulnerability, the biblical foundation for community, and why taking the risk to be truly known might be the most important thing you do this year.

    Does God Actually Hear Me?

    Have you ever prayed and felt like God didn’t answer? Like your words went out into the air and disappeared? In this episode, we dive into the honest question so many of us wrestle with: Does God actually hear me? We’ll look at stories from Scripture — like David, Job, and Hannah — who felt forgotten but were actually being formed. I’ll share a personal story about a moment I asked God for reassurance… and how He answered me in a way I never expected (hint: it involved a semi-truck). If you’re in a season of silence, waiting, or doubt — this episode is for you. God isn’t ignoring you. He’s closer than you think, and His kindness often shows up in the small things — if we’ll slow down enough to see it.
