  • Eps 45: Why Obedience to God Feels Like a Wrestle — But Produces Joy (ft. Alexandra Hoover)

    In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra sits down with Bible teacher Alexandra Hoover to talk about the beauty, cost, and spiritual fruit of obedience to God.

    Many believers desire the peace and joy that come from walking with God, but we often underestimate the daily surrender required to follow Him faithfully. Obedience is not always easy—in fact, it often involves wrestling with our desires, expectations, and comfort.

    Together, we discuss how God uses obedience, even through suffering, to produce deeper joy, maturity, and intimacy with Him.

    In this conversation, we explore:

    • Why obedience to God often feels like a wrestle

    • How surrender produces spiritual growth
    • Why suffering can lead to deeper joy
    • The importance of daily surrender to God
    • Why we shouldn’t be surprised when following God feels costly

    God is not simply asking for our behavior—He is forming our hearts. Through obedience, He shapes us into people who trust Him more deeply and experience the joy that comes from walking closely with Him.

    If you’ve ever struggled with surrender or wondered why obedience feels difficult, this episode will encourage you to see what God is producing in you through the process.

  • Eps 44: Spiritual Maturity, Holy Deliverance & God’s Greater Purpose | Kept Podcast

    In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra unpacks what spiritual maturity and holy deliverance truly mean from a godly perspective. Using Philippians chapter 1, we look at Paul’s imprisonment and the powerful way he defines maturity, joy, and purpose in the midst of suffering.

    This conversation challenges the common belief that God’s primary goal is to remove us from difficult circumstances. Instead, we explore how God often prioritizes something deeper:

    👉 cultivating holiness

    👉 growing intimacy with Him

    👉 shaping our character

    👉 and maturing our faith

     

    If you’ve ever wondered why God hasn’t removed certain struggles, this episode offers biblical clarity and encouragement. God may not always deliver us from the fire—but He is always working in us through it.

    This episode will help you shift your perspective, deepen your faith, and embrace the growth God is producing in every season.

  • Eps 43: How to Trust God in Financial Difficulty & Unexpected Life Changes W/Jessica Mathisen

    In this powerful episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra sits down with Jessica Mathisen to discuss the importance of having a biblical theology of suffering and what it truly means to acknowledge God in the midst of financial hardship and unexpected life changes. As Christians, it can be easy to assume that trials are a form of punishment or a sign that we’ve done something wrong. But what if our struggles are not punishment — but preparation? What if God is using difficult seasons to deepen our intimacy with Him?

    In this conversation, we explore:

    • What the Bible teaches about suffering

    • How to trust God during financial difficulties

    • Why not every trial is discipline or punishment

    • Growing spiritually through hardship

    • Developing intimacy with God in uncertain seasons

  • Eps 42: God Is Our Refuge | Finding Stability in Chaos ft Blair Linne

    In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra sits down with writer, spoken word artist, and Bible teacher Blair Linne to talk about the spiritual realities that keep us grounded when life feels overwhelming and unstable.

    Rooted in Psalm 46:1–3, this conversation reminds us that God is our refuge, strength, and ever-present help in trouble—even when everything around us is shaking.

    Blair vulnerably shares her personal experience with anxiety and panic attacks, and how God met her in those moments and taught her how to navigate them through His Word and presence.

    Together, we explore:

    • Why God’s Word is essential to our ability to stand

    • How Scripture reveals the character and nature of God

    • Why knowing who God is becomes our anchor in hard seasons

    • What it means to be grounded in truth instead of circumstance

  • Eps 40: How to Find True Rest in God | Casting Your Cares and Receiving Soul Rest

    “Rest isn’t earned — it’s received.” 💛

    As I wrap up Season 1 of the Kept Podcast, I can’t help but reflect on how faithful God has been. What started as obedience has turned into something so much bigger than I imagined. Every conversation, every guest, and every lesson has been proof that God truly meets us in our pain and uses it for His glory.

    In this final episode, I’m sharing one last encouragement of the season — the importance of casting your cares on the Lord. Jesus invites us in Matthew 11:28-30 to exchange our heavy burdens for His light yoke. I talk about what that means practically, how to speak with God daily about the things that weigh on your heart, and what true soul rest looks like for His daughters.

    If you’ve been feeling tired, heavy, or unsure of how to rest in God’s presence — this episode is for you.
