She Lives Purposefully

What do you do when you don't know what God wants you to do next?

You're facing a decision. You can see different paths in front of you, and you feel pulled in different directions. 

In today's episode of the She Lives Purposefully podcast, we're talking about what to do when you're seeking God's will but don't know what your next step should be. I'm sharing the ways I'm seeking God's guidance, and the practical steps I'm taking to move forward faithfully.

If you're waiting for clarity, struggling to make a big decision, or wondering how to discern God's direction for your life, I hope this conversation encourages you to seek Him and trust Him with whatever comes next.

Is Halloween actually evil? Are Christians participating in something they shouldn’t?

We participated in Halloween last year. We tried to bring some light and fun into the day, but this year, we’re approaching Halloween differently.

In this episode, I’m sharing why we’re choosing to step away from the scary side of Halloween. 

We’ll talk about fear, witches, ghosts, death, spiritual warfare, what the Bible actually says about sorcery and witchcraft, and why I don't want to intentionally expose my toddler to things that I don't think he’s old enough to understand yet.

You know the sin you need to let go of. You know the step of faith you’ve been putting off. You know you should forgive, give, pray, share the gospel, change direction, or finally surrender that thing you’ve been trying to control.

BUT you still haven’t done it.

In this episode of She Lives Purposefully, we’re talking about the space between knowing what God says and actually doing it.

I’m sharing moments in my own life when I felt very clearly that God was asking something of me—one where I listened and one where I did not.

We’ll talk about three big reasons we sometimes choose our own way instead of obeying God AND how to choose instead to take that step of following Jesus and obey Him.

Today, I’m sharing a core part of my testimony, a family tragedy that completely rocked my faith but that God used to transform my life and my love for Him. 

I’m sharing different comforts that God has given me in suffering with the hopes of comforting and encouraging you.

Christians are not exempt from suffering but we do have the God of all comfort with us through it.

Are you actually living purposefully—or are you just getting through the day?

It’s surprisingly easy to live life on autopilot. And as Christians, we can even turn our faith into a checklist: Read your Bible. Check. Go to church. Check. Pray. Check. Be a good person. Check.

But God has called us to deeper.

In this episode of She Lives Purposefully, we’re talking about what it actually means to live purposefully as a Christian—not someday but today, right where God has placed you.

Because every day is an opportunity to glorify God, love God, and live for God.

If life feels a little out of wack or chaotic, like what you’re doing doesn’t align with what you want - your priorities could be all out of order. And as a Christian, we’re actually called to more. 

Today we’re talking about getting our priorities in order, the RIGHT order and why it’s important! 

Having priorities out of order can lead to chaos and overwhelm and putting time and effort into the wrong things. How we act out what we prioritize matters because it begins to define how we live our lives. 

Today, I lay out Scripture that backs up what our priorities should be, the priority order I love, and an exhortation to sit down and take inventory for your own life.

Today, I sit down to talk about if our faith is firm enough to weather trends and culture, and some ways to ensure that it is. 

Christianity is honestly trending right now. It’s kinda popular. BUT Christians are called, in the Bible, to be prepared for push back and persecution. 

How can we be sure our faith isn’t just trendy but is sure?

Are we as Christian women spending time with Him? Are we remembering all He’s done for us? Are we growing an actual relationship based on truth? Are we practicing taking up our cross?

And then I have the CUTEST story to share about my kiddo that reminded me that the seeds I am sowing MATTER. (HINT: It’s about prayer)
