  • Attention Seeking Behaviours | The Hidden and Obvious Ways We Ask to Be Seen

    Send us Fan Mail

    Attention!!! 

    We all want it, we all need it, but how we seek attention manifests differently between us. 

    Today we discuss attention, why we are wired to need it, and at we explore the obvious and subtle ways that we look for attention. 

    We also look at biblical examples of attention seeking behaviour and how God looks at our motivations.

    Do any of these resonate with you or the people around you? 

    Let's dive in!

    We will go into the story of Moses, and talk about how fear shows up in our lives.

  • [Ep 21] How to hear God's voice | Learn to discern His guidance and will in your life

    Send us Fan Mail

    Does God still speak to us today?


    Today's topic explores how God speaks to us, discerning His voice and learning to listen to Him in seeking His guidance.


    Sometimes we are faced with challenges, pain in our life, big questions or decisions and we want to know what God's will is for us but maybe we feel He is silent.


    Or maybe we have trouble discerning what is His voice or just our own desires.


    Hopefully this gives some food for thought and we can all learn to actively listen and seek His voice in our everyday lives, and get better at hearing Him and obeying Him.

    Send us Fan Mail

    Today I'm joined by 2 friends, Becky and Alissa.


    Some of the things we talk about:

    - identity being first in Jesus

    - our own MBTI's

    - our strengths and weaknesses

    - building self awareness around your personality

    - the differences between how we view careers


    Thank you to a listener for requesting this topic! It was more focused on career but can be applied to relationships, habits, decision making etc.

    We could have talked for ages about every aspect but stopped at an hour ><

    I hope you find it enjoyable and somewhat helpful :) Would love to know your thoughts!
