What if the most beautiful worship you’ll ever offer comes from the bottom—when all you have left is trust? Director and combat veteran Eric Swithin sits down with us to unpack Show Me Your Glory, a film forged in prayer that gathers verified testimonies from around the world and refuses to skip the chapters on suffering. We talk through why Scripture pairs miracles with waiting and weakness, how God “recycles” pain into ministry, and what real fruit looks like beyond hype: people saved, faith strengthened, and Jesus at the center.
Eric shares personal stories of healing, provision, and spiritual warfare, but the heartbeat is obedience. Saying yes when you’re afraid often unlocks the provision you can’t engineer—whether that’s a storm diverted in prayer or the courage to keep filming when funds run thin. From there we lean into a question everyone asks: how do you hear God’s voice? Eric’s field-tested approach is simple and demanding—saturate in Scripture to know the Shepherd’s tone, cultivate stillness, test impressions by peace and the Word, and move with humility as confirmation comes. Over time, hearing God becomes daily bread, not rare dessert.
We don’t dodge the tensions in the church. We name the ditches—gifts edited out on one side, spectacle and profiteering on the other—and call for a middle way: Bible-rooted, Spirit-empowered, done in order and aimed at God’s glory. As lying signs and wonders rise, we offer clear guardrails: confess Jesus as Lord, watch the fruit, follow the Spirit’s discernment, and don’t chase spectacle. We close with a sharper invitation: settle whether the Holy Spirit truly lives in you, not with lip service but with surrender that changes desires. If your heart longs to see God magnified in both miracles and midnight seasons, this conversation will steady your steps and stir your faith.
If this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a review telling us how you’re learning to hear God’s voice. Your stories help others find their way.
