In this episode, I walk through Paul’s Second Missionary Journey and explore how God advances the gospel through closed doors, unexpected people, and Spirit-led redirection. From Timothy joining the mission, to a vision that carries the gospel into Europe, to quiet conversions by a riverbank and worship in a prison at midnight, this journey shows us that God’s plans are often bigger, and stranger, than anything we would design ourselves. Along the way, we encounter Lydia, the Philippian jailer, skeptical philosophers in Athens, and faithful believers who shape the future of the church in ways that rarely make headlines.

This episode is an invitation to trust God when clarity is lacking and obedience feels costly. As I trace the gospel’s movement through Philippi, Thessalonica, Berea, Athens, and Corinth, I reflect on how God still works today, using ordinary people, uncomfortable interruptions, and unseen faithfulness to accomplish His purposes. If you’ve ever wondered whether closed doors mean failure or if God can really use your small, faithful steps, this episode will encourage you to walk by faith and trust the Spirit’s leading.

In this episode I will walk through Acts 15, a pivotal moment in church history, the Council at Jerusalem. This wasn’t just a disagreement over tradition; it was a defining moment where the gospel itself was clarified. Together, we explore the tension between grace and legalism, asking the same question the early church had to face: Is faith in Jesus enough, or do we add rules to salvation?

I unpack Peter’s testimony, Paul and Barnabas’ missionary evidence, and James’ Scripture-anchored wisdom to show how the early church defended truth without weaponizing it. This episode speaks directly to modern believers navigating rules versus relationship, church division, and questions of unity. If you’ve ever wondered how to stand firm in truth while extending grace, or how God’s mission continues even through conflict, this conversation will encourage, challenge, and clarify the freedom we have in Christ.

In this episode I walk through Paul and Barnabas’ first missionary journey in Acts chapters 13 and 14, exploring how the early church carried the gospel into hostile and unfamiliar territory. We see evangelism in action, powerful miracles that confirm God’s message, and intense opposition that fails to stop the work of the Holy Spirit.

This journey reminds us that faithfulness matters more than results and that God often uses ordinary believers to accomplish eternal purposes. From Antioch to Cyprus, Iconium, Lystra, and back again, this episode shows how the gospel advances through obedience, perseverance, and God’s grace, no matter the hardship. If you’re navigating resistance, discouragement, or questions about your calling, this study will encourage you to trust that God is still opening doors of faith today.

As we step into a new year, I want to invite you into a conversation about new beginnings rooted in God’s faithfulness instead of our self-effort. In this episode, I seek to explore what it truly means to start fresh in Christ by embracing a new identity, leaving the past where it belongs, and building spiritual rhythms instead of empty resolutions. Drawing from Scripture, I'll share how ongoing struggle can actually be evidence of real spiritual transformation. Whether you’re entering this year hopeful, weary, or uncertain, I pray this episode will encourage you to step forward in faith, trust God’s grace, and walk confidently in who He says you are in Christ.

In this Christmas episode, I want to open up about navigating the holidays after loss, rediscovering the true meaning of Christmas, and finding hope in Jesus when grief seems to change things. From the childhood magic I once knew to the adult sorrow I now face, I share how the miracle of Christ’s birth brings light into dark seasons and comfort when there’s an empty chair at the table. If you’re walking through grief, longing for joy, or simply needing a reminder of God’s presence this December, I invite you to join me as we lean into the Savior who came close ... Emmanuel, God with us.

In this episode of My Ministry Mission, I walk through Acts 12 and explore how God powerfully delivers Peter from prison, humbles King Herod, and proves that no earthly force can stop His plans. Through persecution, prayer, and miraculous intervention, we see the unstoppable advance of God’s Word and learn how to trust His sovereignty, pray boldly, and live with unshakable faith today.

In this episode, we explore the rise of the church in Antioch through Acts 11:19–30, uncovering how God used ordinary believers, cross-cultural unity, intentional discipleship, and generous compassion to build one of the most influential churches in early Christianity. Discover how persecution propelled the gospel, why Barnabas and Saul shaped Antioch into a disciple-making movement, and what it means for today’s believers to embrace a bold, Christ-centered identity. I hope this episode equips listeners to share Christ courageously, love across cultural lines, grow deeply as disciples, and give generously, living out the transformative Antioch model in everyday life.

My guest today is Frank Ravanelli, he is a storyteller at heart, a writer whose love for adventure and faith intertwine in his debut fantasy novel, Pages of The Aduir: Journey to the Peninsia Throne. It’s a tale of destiny, courage, and light rising out of darkness. But what makes his story truly inspiring isn’t just the pages he’s written, it’s the journey God led him through to write them. Frank’s testimony reminds us that the road to purpose often winds through suffering. Yet, it’s in those valleys that God refines us. Today, we’ll talk about how faith sustained Frank through hardship, how creativity became his act of worship, and what it truly means to take up your cross daily, even when life doesn’t go the way we planned.
