Have you gotten comfortable in bad habits? Comfortable in not knowing or using the gifts and strengths that God has entrusted to you? Comfortable in thought patterns that aren't truthful or helpful? Friend, in God's Word we read that Jesus came so we may have abundant life, yet how often do we as believers settle or get comfortable in what God clearly says He has set us free from? In today's podcast, we are being challenged to go deeper and seek the face of the Lord. We are being encouraged in t...

Happy week of Easter folks! Join me in the Word today to learn more about how awesome the Lord is. He is the Lord Who burst through the grave and defeated sin and death so that through Him we can have eternal life and be in relationship with Him forever.

We all want to be seen, thought of as beautiful, pursued, and valued. We all want to have purpose and know that we are significant. We all have certain plans as to when we want to be in a dating relationship or get married or when we want to have kids. Wanting these things is not a bad thing in and of itself but we will be left unsatisfied when we seek to meet these needs and fulfill these plans apart from the Lord. Today Bethany and Kristen from Girl Defined Ministries are joining us to talk ab...

I think many people who have been set free in Christ are continuing to live as captives because there is a misunderstanding of grace and a lack of taking God at His Word. I pray this podcast encourages you in the power of what Jesus has done and how this is offered to anyone who surrenders to Him - no matter what your past looks like, and that you are encouraged to step forward in forgiveness and faith because God has so much in store for you on the other side of your trust in Him.

Worry is something that we all work through, and the Lord addresses it in His Word. So, today let us go to the Word together and be encouraged in what God says about worry. Not only does He tell us not to worry, but He invites us to Himself and comforts us in the reality that He knows what we need, that He is our peace, and that He is trustworthy.

Sharing a story today about how I continued to put off opening an invitation that ended up being a dream opportunity I missed due to procrastinating the opening of the letter. In a similar way, how many of us either put off God's invitation to salvation or how many of us put off His invitation to walk in complete freedom because we have settled with our shackles? The right time to accept His invitation is right now. Also, be sure to check out my latest devotional book, "All-Caps YOu" as an amazi...

From 2 Corinthians 10:5, we know that God's Word has authority to lead us to walk with a mind set free. Jesus tells us in John 8:32 that the truth sets us free when we know it. Today, I want to talk about our minds in comparison to a garden and encourage us in the reality that we are the gardeners of our minds. We get to decide what thoughts get planted and what gets uprooted. By the power of the Spirit, may we be transformed by the renewing of our minds (Romans 12:2). I LOVE YOU. Also, be sure ...

I pray that this podcast encourages you to cling to what is good and encourages you in the power of the Gospel.

I don’t know about you, but I struggle with expecting perfection from myself. Usually I would deny this to be the case because I know that I am not perfect, but my sub conscience expectation of perfection shows itself when criticism comes out in the moments I mess up or when I am not as far along as I thought I would be by now. This life with the Lord is a journey, where He is finishing the good work He began in us (Philippians 1:6). I pray this episode encourages you to take a deep breath.You a...

Joy is not determined on the circumstances we are standing in or in what we can manufacture on our own, but it is found in the presence of God and is based on His character-on Who He is. I love how David praises the Lord in Psalm 9:2, declaring that His rejoicing is because of God. Because the Lord remains the same, we always have a reason to rejoice.

God desires a real, authentic relationship with us and He made a way for that to be possible through His Son, Jesus. Today we are addressing the tough reality that sorrow awaits us when we are portraying a life of love for God, when the inside tells a different story. Great joy awaits us when we love the Lord from the inside out. We were not made to live in performance mode, but rather to truly know God and let our lives reflect that. You are not required to be perfect, but you are called to be ...

God has called us to run the race that has been set before us by fixing our eyes on Jesus, but how often do we compare ourselves to how others run their race? How often do we let others be who we fix our eyes on to set the standard of the pace we should be running? May we be people who seek to learn from others and encourage others rather than comparing ourselves to others. May we be people who look to Jesus as our standard and let Him set the pace of the race He Himself has called us to run Lea...
