🎙️Episode 33a: I think God has me locked in the basement right now
🎙️ Crumb Confessional — Episode 33a
Title: I think God has me locked in the basement right now
Description:
It’s early—5:54 a.m.—and I’m locked in my in-laws’ basement, afraid to trip the alarm. But spiritually, I think God has me locked down here too. I read the final judgment passage from Matthew 25 and wrestle with its meaning. I question whether I’ve been ignoring the “least of these” out of convenience or fear. This episode is a full-on spiritual audit: giving, praying, obedience. I break down what I now call the “Kingdom Giving Protocol” and realize how much I’ve delayed. I close with a raw, urgent prayer.
I talk about:
- Feeling locked in the basement physically and spiritually
- Wrestling with Matthew 25 and the final judgment
- Asking whether my giving is spirit-led or guilt-driven
- Confronting my failure to pray for or respond to 50+ people in need
- Building a Kingdom Giving Protocol with green/yellow/red light vetting
- Creating a prayer rotation and intercessory mission list
- Breaking the stronghold of fear and hesitation in obedience

đź“– Scriptures Referenced:

🙏 Closing Line:
Lord, I ask that you just make me that vessel.
