Still Being Made

Waiting on God can feel frustrating. It can feel like everyone else's life is moving while yours is standing still. But what if we've misunderstood what it actually means to wait?

In this episode of Still Being Made, we're talking about why biblical waiting isn't passive. Together we'll explore what Scripture says about waiting on the Lord, what we should be doing while we wait, and how God often uses seasons of waiting to prepare us long before He changes our circumstances.

There are parts of my story I've never shared publicly... until now. In this episode, I'm opening up about the journey that shaped me—from growing up with sickle cell disease, to wrestling with identity, self-worth, and the quiet belief that I wasn't enough. I also share how I searched for healing and purpose in places that couldn't truly satisfy, including my experience with New Age spirituality.

Do you ever wonder if God actually wants good for you?

In this episode of Still Being Made, we're looking at Luke 5:12-13 and the powerful story of the leper who approached Jesus with one question: "If You are willing..."

What if the greatest struggle in your faith isn't believing that God can—but believing that He wants to?

We'll talk about shame, worthiness, rejection, unanswered desires, and what Jesus reveals about the heart of God when He reaches out and touches the leper before healing him.

If you've ever felt forgotten by God, struggled with comparison, questioned your worth, or wrestled to trust God's goodness, this conversation is for you.

Scripture: Luke 5:12-13

Have you ever looked at a season of your life and wondered, "What was the point of that?"

In this episode, we're diving into Luke 5 and the story of Peter's empty nets.

Together, we'll talk about what God might be doing in seasons that feel unproductive, why obedience often comes before understanding, and how God uses ordinary experiences to prepare us for extraordinary purpose.

Scripture: Luke 5:1–11

After a few months away,  I'm catching you up on where I've been, what God has been teaching me, and why this podcast is entering a brand-new chapter.

Whether you're in a season of transition, uncertainty, growth, or simply trying to figure out what's next, I think you'll relate to this conversation.

I'm so excited to be back. Thanks for being here. 🤍

Happy New Year, friend! Today, we're talking about the lie that keeps us consuming instead of creating and why God created you to be a builder, not just a taker.

In this episode, we're diving into:

• The lie that says "I'm not ready to create yet—I need to consume more first"
• Why consuming other people's content keeps you stuck in their calling while yours sits dormant
• The truth that God doesn't call the qualified—He qualifies the called
• What it looks like to step into your Creator identity (even when you're scared)
• Practical steps to stop consuming and start creating this week

Journal Prompts for this episode:

1. What have I been consuming instead of creating?
2. What is God calling me to create right now?
3. What's one thing I'm going to create this week?

Your mind is a garden. And just like any garden, it requires daily tending. The lies we've believed don't just disappear because we got saved. The wounds from our past don't automatically heal because we started going to church. Transformation requires our active participation.

In this episode, we're diving into:

• What Romans 12:2 really means for our daily lives
• The lie that transformation happens passively
• The truth that we are stewards of our minds, not victims of our thoughts
• A vivid picture of what the "garden" metaphor actually looks like (soil, seeds, weeds, water, sunlight, and fruit)
• How to start doing the work of uprooting lies and planting truth

Journal Prompts for this episode:

1. What's one lie I've been believing about myself, God, or my circumstances?
2. What does God's Word say about that lie?
3. What would change in my life if I truly believed God's truth instead of that lie?

Are you yoked to peace or to pressure?
In this episode, we unpack Jesus’ invitation in Matthew 11:28–30 to exchange our heavy burdens for His rest. If you’ve been overwhelmed by life transitions, anxious about your future, or trying to carry what was never yours to begin with, this is your reminder: you don’t have to do it all.

Let’s talk about the real meaning of a “yoke,” why Jesus used that image, and how to walk lighter in a world that wants you to carry more.

Are you playing small with what God gave you? 

In this episode, I’m unpacking the Parable of the Talents and why holding back your gifts isn't just a missed opportunity... It's disobedience. When we let fear silence us or cause us to shrink, we’re rejecting the very things God entrusted us to grow and share.

I’ll be sharing what idleness really means in God’s eyes, how fear keeps us stuck, and what it looks like to take faithful action, even without all the answers. 

Anchor Scripture: Matthew 25:14-30

Being a Christian in today’s culture can feel embarrassing... but it’s not. In this episode, I’m sharing why holding the line on your values matters, how to resist being pulled into what doesn’t serve your faith, and what it really means to stand firm when the world wants you to fold.
