Are you already planning for 2026? Before you sit down with your journal or vision board, we want to show you a peaceful and biblical way to actually plan your year with God, and not just present your goals to Him after the fact.

We discuss:

• How to start your annual planning rooted in Scripture

• How to look back at your year with gratitude

• A simple way to evaluate your spiritual growth

• How to ask God what HE wants for your 2026

• How to consecrate your goals and plans to the Lord

• How to create quarterly plans with God

If you’re feeling unsure about what next year should look like, this episode is for you.

Cheering you on,

Kelsey Kemp & Audrey Bagarus
