How much money is enough?

It’s easy to believe that the more money we make, the more we can do for God. But what if God isn’t nearly as concerned with how much we have as He is with how much we trust Him?

In this episode of the Gen Z Series, Lina talks about the lie that God needs our money and why contentment is about far more than settling for less. She unpacks what it looks like to trust God to meet our needs, find contentment in every season, and surrender our finances to Him one day at a time.

If you’ve ever wondered how much money you really need—or struggled with the pressure to always have more—this conversation will help you rethink money through the lens of faith, contentment, and trust in God.

“If I don’t have money, I can’t be happy.”

Money has a powerful pull on our lives. We want enough of it to feel secure, successful, and free, but what does our relationship with money reveal about our relationship with God?

In this episode, Lina unpacks why money matters so much in the life of a Christian. Jesus talked about money often because it’s more than a financial issue, it’s a window into our hearts.

If you’ve ever wondered how to think about money, success, security, and generosity as a follower of Jesus, this conversation is for you.

And if you want to dig deeper into this topic, read chapter 9 of All Your Life.

This week we celebrate the release of All Your Life: What It Really Means to Live for Jesus (InterVarsity Press, Aug. 4, 2026).

In this special episode, Lina reads Chapter 8 of the book, "Your Influence."

In a world obsessed with followers, platforms, and personal brands, it's easy to believe that influence is measured by numbers. But is that how God defines it?

If you've ever wanted your life to matter, wondered how to make a difference, or struggled to navigate today's influencer culture, this episode will help you discover a biblical vision of influence. 

You'll learn why true influence isn't about becoming well-known but about faithfully reflecting Jesus wherever He has placed you.

In a world where followers, views, and influence seem to define success, it's easy to believe that if your platform isn't growing, neither is your impact. But is that really how God's kingdom works?

In this episode of The Gen Z Series, Lina and Micah unpack the difference between building a platform and building God's kingdom. 

Is it wrong to want influence? Where's the line between healthy ambition and self-promotion? And how can something that starts with good intentions slowly become centered on ourselves instead of Christ?

If you've ever wondered whether your desire to make an impact is pointing people to you or to Jesus, this conversation is for you.

In a world obsessed with likes, followers, and going viral, it's easy to believe that the more people who notice you, the more your life matters. But is that really what God intended?

In this episode of The Hope Podcast, we're talking about what the Bible really says about influence.

The desire to matter isn't wrong. God placed that longing within us. But sin can twist it into a pursuit of recognition instead of a life that points people to Christ.

If you've ever compared yourself to influencers, measured your worth by engagement, or wondered whether your life is making a difference, this conversation will encourage you to shift your focus from building your platform to faithfully following Jesus.

Because the most influential people in God's kingdom aren't those who chase influence… they're the ones who make Jesus known.

If you're wondering whether to quit or keep going, this conversation will encourage you to trust God's leading and keep following Jesus—even when the path isn't what you expected.

Everyone tells you to take the safe route.

Your parents have concerns. Your friends think you're making a mistake. Everyone seems to have an opinion about what you should do with your life.

So how do you know when to listen, and when to follow God instead?

In this episode, we talk about the tension between public opinion and God's calling. We'll look at what Scripture says about discerning God's voice, why calling begins with God rather than other people's expectations, and how to seek wise counsel without letting the opinions of others determine your obedience.

If you've ever wondered whether you're making the right decision—or worried that following Jesus might make you look foolish—this conversation is for you.

We'll also share practical questions and next steps to help you discern God's direction with confidence and peace.

Do you know your calling? Is your calling something different than career? How can you be sure you're doing what God wants you to do?

Many of us spend years trying to discover the "right" career, believing that once we find it, we'll finally feel fulfilled. But what if we've confused our career with our calling?

Your career is where you work. Your calling is who you become, and whose you are.

One may change many times throughout your life. The other never changes.

In this episode, discover how your first calling is to follow Jesus, how work becomes an act of worship, and how to discern whether God is asking you to stay, go, or simply be faithful where you are.

If you've ever wondered what God wants you to do with your life, this conversation will help you see calling and career from a whole new perspective.

"What am I supposed to do with my life?"

It's one of the biggest questions Gen Z is asking, and one of the biggest sources of anxiety.

Many young adults are terrified of missing God's will, making the wrong decision, choosing the wrong career, or taking a path that will somehow derail their future. But what if we've misunderstood calling altogether?

In this episode, Lina and Micah dive into one of the most important conversations from Lina's new book All Your Life. Together they explore what the Bible actually teaches about calling, purpose, and God's guidance.

You'll discover why your primary calling is not a career, why God is more concerned about who you're becoming than what you're doing, and why you can trust Him with your future.

If you've ever worried about missing God's plan for your life, this episode will encourage you with one simple truth:

God is better at leading you than you are at missing Him.

Stop waiting for a blueprint and start following the One who knows the way.

Listen now.
