What happens when the thing you trusted most becomes the thing God strips away?

In this first episode of my sin series, I’m confessing the sin beneath my financial story: idolatry—the places I looked to money, marriage, work, and even yoga to give me what only God can give: safety, peace, and provision.

I share how I went from a six-figure corporate job to $20/week, from a full financial reset (zero debt + a 777 credit score) back into heavy debt—and how God covered me anyway: the “Help me, Jesus” moment, the six-figure yoga blessing, the collapse that followed when the blessing became the idol, the season of forced dependence, and the miracles that proved God—not the system—was my Provider.

We pray the Lord’s Prayer together (“forgive us our debts”) and name the truth Scripture makes plain: “The borrower is slave to the lender” (Proverbs 22:7)—and God is calling His daughters back to freedom, stewardship, and surrender.

If you’ve ever felt ashamed of your past, your patterns, or your financial story, this episode is proof: confession is not condemnation—it’s the doorway to covering

What happens when you're losing leaves and feel like you're failing—but God is doing deep root work underground?

As I meditated on Psalm 1, God revealed something profound about winter seasons, gravitropism, and growing deep when you can't grow up.

I get vulnerable about Thanksgiving with family, the story they keep telling about 3-year-old me, and how God showed me that the people pulling me down aren't opposing His plan—they're part of it. Like Joseph in the well, what looks like burial is actually positioning.

The deeper the roots, the taller the shoots, the sweeter the fruits.

We explore gravitropism (downward pull) and phototropism (reaching for light) as God's design for growth. Winter seasons aren't failure—they're preparation. The well isn't your end. It's your pathway to the Source.

Scripture: Psalm 1, Jeremiah 17:7-8

Have you been wondering how to get back that fire between you and God?

Welcome to a new devotional series through the Psalms of David. Every Friday as we head into Sabbath, I’ll post a new Psalm—building a holy rhythm of intimacy with God.

In this episode, I get vulnerable about my journey from sexual sin and a closed heart to learning real intimacy with God. The Psalms taught me how to open my heart again—not just physically, but soul to soul, from the waist up.
We explore Psalm 1: the blessed life (rooted by the water) vs. the chaff (blown around, unanchored). Plus, I share my anchor prayer story and homework questions to help you build your own rhythm this week.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence. Just honest conversation with the One who loves you most.

How do you know the Bible is the long word of God?

Not because Grandma had it on the coffee table or because it’s tradition. But because God preserved His Word with precision, intention, and power.
In this episode, we’re going back to the foundation. 

I’m breaking down the manuscript evidence, the prophecies fulfilled, the archaeology that keeps preaching, and the divine fingerprints all over Scripture that prove this Book refuses to die.

We’ll talk about:
•How 66 books written by 40+ authors across 1,500 years stay unified
•The Dead Sea Scrolls and 24,000+ manuscript witnesses
•Why the Gnostic gospels didn’t make the cut
•How every translation goes back to the original Hebrew and Greek
•The hidden prophecy in the very first Hebrew word of the Bible
This isn’t blind faith. This is verifiable faith.

The Bible is living because He is living. The Bible speaks because He speaks. And this Word is the foundation of everything we believe.

Key Topics:
Manuscript evidence | Dead Sea Scrolls | Biblical prophecy | Archaeology | Hebrew | Translations | Biblical authority | Scripture | Faith | Gospel

In this episode, I share the story of my Judas—a friend who came into my life appearing to help, but who ultimately played a divine role in pushing me into my purpose.
