God will ask you to trust Him with what you love most…not to take it, but to see if you trust Him.

What do you do when God asks you to trust Him with the very thing you prayed for?

In this episode, we break down Genesis 22:1–15, the story of Abraham and Isaac, and what it truly means when God tests your faith. This is not just about sacrifice, it’s about trust, surrender, and understanding God as your provider (Jehovah Jireh).

God doesn’t test to take from you, He tests to reveal what’s in you and to show you who He is.

What does it really look like to have God in your relationship?

In this episode of Love Without Limits, I’m bringing my wife into the conversation for the first time as we talk about our relationship, how we met, and how God has shown up in our love in real, everyday ways.

Some of you are disqualifying yourselves from what Godalready chose you for.

Have you ever felt like you weren’t qualified for what God was calling you to do?

In this episode, we break down Judges 6:15–16, where Gideon questions his calling because he feels weak, unqualified, and overlooked, and God responds with one powerful truth: “I will be with you.”

This episode goes beyond the scripture and gets personal. I share my own journey of starting this podcast and stepping into ministry, even when I felt unready, unsure, and likemy life didn’t fit the “standard” image of what ministry is supposed to look like.

If you’ve ever:

• felt unqualified for your calling
• thought you needed to know more before starting
• struggled with insecurity, doubt, or comparison
• felt like your background or lifestyle disqualified you

This episode is for you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

What Gideon’s story really teaches about calling and insecurity

• Why feeling “not ready” doesn’t mean you’re not called
• How God uses people who don’t fit the traditional mold
• Why obedience matters more than confidence
• How to move forward even when you don’t feel enough

This is your reminder:

God doesn’t call the qualified, He qualifies the called.

God is not focused on the label… He’s looking at thefruit.

 What does God actually look at in a relationship?

 In this episode of Love Without Limits, we move past assumptions and break down what truly matters to God when it comes to love, connection, and partnership. If you’ve been focusing on labels, opinions, or fear-based thinking, this conversation will help you shift your perspective.

We also take a deeper look at the word “abomination” (to’evah), what it really means in biblical context, and how misunderstanding scripture can create unnecessary confusion and fear.

 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What God truly values in a relationship
• Why the condition of the heart matters more than appearances
• The real meaning of “abomination” in biblical context
• How to evaluate your relationship based on what it produces
