  • #23 The Truth About Suffering

    Today I read James 1 and talk about God's desire for our suffering. I discuss how suffering is not in vain, it actually produces good things in our character. I talk about how God asks us to approach suffering in a way that is opposite to how most of society would. I hope you are in encouraged by this episode. Share it with a friend!

  • #19 5 Things to Keep in Mind in the Middle of Waiting for the Next Thing

    Are you in a season where it feels like nothing’s moving? Like you’re stuck between the promise and the outcome? In this episode, I’m sharing 5 reminders for the middle—the quiet, often frustrating space where we’re waiting for the next thing to unfold. Whether you’re waiting on healing, a relationship, a job, or clarity, this episode is a reminder that God is working even here.

    We'll Talk About:

  • 1. How God is preparing you in the waiting

    2. Why waiting is never wasted

    3. Surrendering to God’s timing (He really does know you best)

    4. Choosing joy in the process by pursuing Jesus\

    5. And why the process matters just as much as the outcome


    1. Let’s shift our perspective and learn to wait well 🤍

  • #16 DCC and Identity

    Hi! Today we are talking about America's Sweethearts aka DCC. I was and still am obsessed with the show and the dancing. These women are SO talented. In today's episode I talk about the topics that people had issues with while watching the show and how all of it is tied back to identity.


    There are spoilers! So if you haven't watched the documentary on Netflix - go do that first. OR just listen knowing that I will spoil a few things!

  • #15 How to Host Well
    Hi friends! today's episode is all about hosting well. Hosting can be intimidating and overwhelming at times but I've hosted SO many different events: from birthdays, to bible studies, to bachelorettes and baby showers, to fundraisers for teams - and honestly, by God's grace, I've improved each time I've hosted. Throughout all of these experiences, I've learned a TON when it comes to hosting well.
    I also believe hospitality is at the heart of who God is. Jesus is all about connection and building relationships with others and we should be as well! When we open up our homes, or offer to host an event, we are showing those around us the characteristics of Christ!

  • #14 A Brain Dump on Easter and Jesus

    Hi! It's Easter Week and here I am, hopping on the podcast to talk about Easter.

    I also talk about the Samaritan Woman from John 4.

    This is also a HUGE brain dump. Feeling very sentimental and thankful for the cross.

    I hope this sparks a conversation and I hope it reminds you of how much God loves you.

    I apologize in advance if this feels random and not organized - none of this was planned! HA.


    Happy Easter. Jesus wants to know you and be a part of your life.
