    Level Up Your LIfe with Better Communication Skills

    Level Up Your Life with Better Communication Skills dives into how the words we speak—and the ones we think—shape our relationships, our faith, and our everyday lives. Rooted in biblical wisdom and packed with practical takeaways, this episode breaks down five core principles for healthier communication: using words with care, choosing to build instead of break, listening more than speaking, recognizing the power of internal communication, and growing your communication skills on purpose. Whether you’re navigating marriage, friendships, work, or your walk with God, this conversation will challenge you to speak with intention, listen with humility, and communicate in a way that reflects Christ and brings life to the people around you.

    Better Together- The Power of CommUNITY

    In this episode, we turn to Hebrews 10:24–25 to talk about why community isn’t optional- it’s essential. God didn't design us to grow, endure, or succeed alone, and isolation is one of the enemy’s favorite tools. We explore how gathering with other believers strengthens our faith, sharpens our love, and helps us persevere, not just for our own sake, but for the good of others. As we wait for the return of Jesus, we’re reminded that obedience looks like showing up, encouraging one another, and choosing community even when it’s uncomfortable. Faith flourishes when we walk it out together.

    The Kind of Life God Actually Blesses

    What does it really mean to be “blessed”? In this episode, The Kind of Life God Actually Blesses, we step into Matthew 5 and the Beatitudes to uncover the surprising contrast between worldly success and Kingdom blessing. Jesus turns our definitions upside down, declaring blessing over the poor in spirit, the meek, the merciful, and those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. Together, we explore how God’s favor is not found in comfort, status, or applause, but in a surrendered heart and a life aligned with His ways. This episode invites you to release the world’s version of blessing and embrace the deeper, lasting blessing that comes from living fully in God’s Kingdom.

    Are You Blocking Your Own Blessings?

    Are You Blocking Your Own Blessings? What if the very thing standing between you and God’s blessings… is you? In this episode, we unpack how fear, comfort zones, and misplaced “yeses” and “nos” can quietly block the life God is calling us into. We talk about getting out of your own way, saying yes with intention, saying no without guilt, and releasing excuses that keep you stuck. God didn’t create you to live small or settle- He came so you could enjoy life and live it to the fullest. When you answer His call, pursue His goodness, and step boldly into purpose, you create space for His blessings to flow. This episode is a loving nudge to move, trust, and walk fully into all God has for you.

    Gratitude Changes Everything

    In this episode, we explore the life-changing power of gratitude and why it’s more than a feeling—it’s a way of living. Drawing inspiration from Mark Batterson’s A Million Little Miracles, the conversation highlights everyday examples and simple illustrations that remind us how easy it is to overlook the blessings right in front of us. In this episode, we are reminded to praise God for every gift, resist the temptation to take things for granted, and instead take them for gratitude. This episode invites you to practice gratitude daily, shift your perspective, and allow thankfulness to move from something you do into something you are.

    All Things New

    In this week’s episode, All Things New, we’re leaning into the promise of fresh beginnings and intentional growth as we step into a new year. I’m sharing four practical and soul-centered ways to move forward with clarity, purpose, and success: choosing a word or theme to anchor your year, reflecting and journaling to gain wisdom from where you’ve been, considering fasting as a way to reset and refocus, and taking an honest assessment of your current self—while inviting accountability to help you stay the course. This episode is an invitation to pause, realign, and partner with God as you embrace the new things He desires to do in and through you. 2026- Let's go!

    Passing the Test by Trusting the Process

    In this episode, Barbara reflects on a season of deep discouragement and the moment she realized it wasn’t a setback but a test of faith. Through personal insight and powerful biblical examples from David, Moses, and Joseph, she unpacks what it means to stay focused on God’s promises, resist shortcuts, and trust the process even when answers don’t come quickly. If you have prayed, waited, and wondered if faith is costing you something, this is a reminder that testing seasons are not punishment but preparation. Passing the test today positions you for the promises of tomorrow.
