Maybe you've had enough, but we still have more for you! Here's part 2 of our episode, The Moment I Said, "Tama na."   

Tune in with us as we see the beauty in saying no and how these "tama na" moments redirect us to God's beautiful plans in our lives.

Tama pa ba o Tama na?

A job you prayed for, your closest relationships, habits, familiarity, and comfort. Have you ever found yourself stuck between holding on and letting go? I'm sure, in one way or another, we've all been there!

It's YA Time to Talk is back! In this episode, Ate Essie will relieve moments in the past, she finally said -- "Tama na". Joining her are Kuya Baste and Ate Janet, they'll talk about their experiences of letting go and how they lived with the change. But most importantly, let's take a look at how they surrendered control and let God take over.

It's about to be another fun kwentuhan session! Let's get started!

Have you ever felt like you're waiting for something that's not bound to happen?

Kasi parang hindi mo na maaabot.

On our spiritual journey with the Lord, there will never be a time that following Him will not be a struggle. Sometimes, you just get tired of fighting the good fight of faith.

But beloved, your battle does not end here.

In this meaningful and raw conversation, Kuya Baste and Ate Gamela, together with our guest, Kuya Elijah Tanquenco shared with us what it takes to wait and long for a breakthrough.

Sana nalaman ko ng maaga para hindi na ako nagkamali - a sentence that we can all relate to.  

As we grow as Christians, regrets pile up and the fear of messing things up overwhelm our hearts.  How can we win our wars when the enemy is across the mirror?  

We make two steps forward and ruin the progress by taking three steps back. We overcome then we eventually fall. If we only knew what we know now at the time we need them the most, then things wouldn't be just the way they are in the current moment.   

But that's not the end of the story. We don't need to live in regret and fear.   

Like everyone else, Kuya Baste, Ate Gams, and our special guest, Ate Micah have had their fair share of regrets in their walk of faith. Join them in another relatable conversation as they talk and reflect on the things they wish they knew earlier as a Christian and what lesson they've kept close in their heart as they journey with Christ.  

Learn from this heartfelt conversation and strive to find the joy in the now even through the things you wish you knew earlier as a Christian.

We've all had our hearts broken at least once in our lives - could be from a treasured friend, a person you loved, or even the family you live with.   

It truly hurts when it matters.  

While we may have different stories, some more painful than others, we share the same longing - peace, healing, and a new beginning.  

But moving forward to the future starts by making peace with the past. Something that the human heart can't do alone.    

In this episode, Kuya Josh opens up about his heartbreaks and how God helped him through them and used it for a good purpose. Join Kuya Baste and Ate Maxine unravel the lessons we can get from the pain we've been through and how we can move forward free from resentment and grudges.  

Because brokenheartedness doesn't have to be an ugly thing.  In Christ, there is a silver lining.

When we're met with back-to-back rejections and setbacks, it's tempting to doubt whether God's plan for us is really good. Yet, with all our efforts and sacrifices exhausted and our dreams still miles away, it's not selfish to say that "I think I deserve this," right?    

But no matter how logical that sounds, God's best interest for us is not getting you to your dreams and making you the best version of yourself but, ultimately, for us to grow in our relationship with Him.    

In this episode, Ate Ariane opens up about the rejections and setbacks she faced along her journey to become who God wanted her to be and where God was leading her. Along with Kuya Baste and Ate Max, we put a little light on the daunting question, "Saan Ba to Patungo?" on God's process over our lives. And remind us all that the process we're in is the place where God wants us to be. This is not for nothing.

Lost. Confused. Disoriented.

On this podcast episode, join the production team behind It's YA Time to Talk answer these questions as they talk about their journeys, the moments they felt lost, and their experiences on figuring out what their lives are meant for in Christ. Along with Kuya Baste and Ate Maxine, we got Ate Janet and Ate Gamela to share their advice to peeps who feel lost and confused in their journey!

They got quirks, and they're fun, but most of all, they got personal testimonies we're sure to get lessons from!

Nine months have already passed, three months to go. Now might be the right time to ask yourself, “Have I Made Progress This Year?”

And to that, there are only two things that can happen. It’s either we’ve stayed exactly the same or not, and that can leave us either frustrated and regretful or the other way around. Hindi ka nag-iisa, ka-YA. In this episode, Ate Jack Molina will be joining us as we talk about 7 reminders to get us into the right perspective when we feel like we made a swing and a miss and when you feel like you didn’t do enough.
