If youāve been wondering whether your daily faithfulness matters, this episode will remind you that consistency in the little things builds Kingdom impact in the big things. Your diligence is worship. Your order honors Him. And your trustāeven in uncertaintyāmagnifies His glory.

If God hasnāt said no, itās not time to stop knocking. š
In this bold and faith-fueled episode of What the Heaven, Riley reminds us that Matthew 7:7ā8 isnāt a passive verse ā itās a call to relentless faith. Jesus said, āAsk, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.ā
This episode isnāt about mastering the how of persistence ā itās about remembering why you canāt quit.
Youāll be reminded to:
Itās not about striving harder. Itās about staying faithful longer.
š§ Listen now and be reignited to keep asking, keep seeking, and keep knocking ā until God says no.

š„Are you in a hard season of life and really feeling the fire?
šAre you tired of feeling like youāre failing or not enough for what this season is demanding of you?Ā
š«Does stress overwhelm you?Ā Ā
āAre you doubting that God has good coming for you and your family after this hard season endsā¦..wondering if this season will ever end?Ā
š¤Wish you had an honest community that was transparent about how truly hard some seasons of life are?Ā
šGirl you found the right place!Ā
This podcast will help you grow closer to God, deepen your faith, and strengthen your trust in Jesus as we study biblical truth and apply it in practical ways each week so you can experience the full peace of Christ.
Hey friend! Iām Riley- a wife, Frenchie fur mom, caffeine addict and Bible teacher who has been in the fiery furnace for so much of my life Iāve gotten pretty comfortable here.haha
When health issues, emotional trauma, family arguments and financial stress came, I consistently found myself reacting emotionally, searching for a worldly solution, or seeking comfort in the hard season through all sorts of distractionsā¦.
Ā
But in Daniel 3, when Sharach, Meshasch and Abednego refused to bow to anything āless thanā God, they were thrown in a furnace, set 7 times higher than usual, and they survived (and actually walked away with a deeper, more rooted peace) by focusing on Jesus Himself not trying to quiet, strategize or organize the flames around them.Ā
I knew I needed to do the same because the solution to an overwhelming season of hardship, confusion and pain is and always will be Jesus Christ our Savior.Ā Ā
I began to dig deep into the Bible and found a deeper love and desire for Christ. And in Godās abundance of grace, that led me to have more resilience, joy & peace in the midst of any suffering I was experiencing.Ā Ā
If you are ready to reconnect deeply with Godā¦.
Fully trust Him at His Word...
And experience a life lived with the true peace of Christā¦this podcast is for you!
āļøGrab your bible
šµAn Iced matcha and nestle in- weāre turning our eyes back to Jesus and abiding in the fire together!Ā
