THE BECOMING PODCAST

In one of the most comforting and transformative passages of Scripture, Romans 8:31–39 reminds us of a profound truth: if God is for us, nothing and no one can ultimately stand against us. In this episode, we dive deep into what it means to hold onto that truth when life feels overwhelming, when we're walking through difficult seasons, and when the battle around us feels bigger than our faith.

Together, we explore how God can use the hardest seasons of our lives to prepare us for what He has next, shaping our faith, strengthening our character, and helping us step fully into our identity in Christ. We talk about overcoming condemnation, learning to see ourselves through God's eyes, and discovering what it truly means to walk in victory through the power of the Holy Spirit—even when our circumstances haven't changed.

What if we stopped trying to live the Christian life in our own strength and started living through the power of the Holy Spirit?

This week, we're diving into Romans 8 and having a real conversation about the Holy Spirit—who He is, what His presence means for us, and the power we have as believers because He lives within us.

Romans 8 reminds us that we are no longer controlled by fear, condemnation, or the desires of the flesh. We have been given a new way to live—a life led by the Spirit, rooted in freedom, identity, and the presence of God.

In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to actually walk in that reality every day.

In Episode 2, we sit down with Evan Vasquez for a real conversation about social media, God's calling, pride, and stepping into ministry. We talk about how pride can show up in our lives, how it can affect the way we approach what God has called us to, and why keeping our focus on God matters as we pursue His purpose.

We also dive into the role social media can play in our lives and how we can be intentional about the way we use it while continuing to pursue what God has placed in front of us. From figuring out your calling to taking the step into ministry, this conversation is about learning to recognize where pride can get in the way and choosing to put God first.
