Welcome back to another episode of Stay True Podcast! This week, Madi sits down with bestselling author, speaker, and podcast host Annie F. Downs for a hilarious and convicting conversation about purpose and calling. Annie and Madi open up about what it really means to find contentment in God… not in circumstances, relationships, timelines, or achievement. They talk about the abundant life Jesus promises, even in seasons that feel slow, confusing, or disappointing. Annie shares wisdom from her own story, the long stretches of waiting, and the surprising ways God shows up when we feel forgotten or behind. If you've ever wondered, "What's my purpose? What is God doing? Why hasn't this prayer been answered yet?" this conversation will encourage you, challenge you, and remind you that God is never late, never distant, and never withholding good from His children.

Always remember to stay you and stay true.

Questions/topics discussed and answered:

• Can you mess up God's plan for your life?

• Is it bad to desire marriage?

• How to find joy and abundance in the middle of the waiting

• What to do when you feel behind

• Practical ways to stay grounded in truth when emotions feel loud

AND SO MUCH MORE!
