I hate to break it to you, listener--

But, if all you have to flex are the amount of followers you have, records you've broken, Grammy's you've won...

You don't really have a lot to show for.

One thing you CAN flex, though, is one not many can.

You're going to have to press play to find out what it is.

As Season Five comes to a close, I present to you our most vulnerable conversation yet. Prepare to be challenged, as I'm holding myself to the standard discussed in today's #ToBeHeardTuesday as well. Be sure to let me know your thoughts in the reviews. And, stay tuned for next week's last episode of season five!

As the season comes to a close, there are some final things that need #tobeheard.

Isaiah 53 is one of them.

For an important lesson on humility, you're going to want to tune in!

Let the last month of Season 5 COMMENCE with a brand new #ToBeHeardTuesday!

The title of today's episode is a prayer I believe every follower of Jesus should pray. As we commit ourselves to walking in our God-given purpose in a world that consistently rejects God's way, we oughta know how to be as shrewd as the world is.

Want to know more of what I mean? Press PLAY for an important bible study on shrewdness. Not to mention, be sure to read a blog I posted many years back for additional context:

Who knew that the miracle of the feeding of 5,000 recorded in Matthew 14 and John 6 would teach such a significant lesson on...leadership?!?

In today's #ToBeHeardTuesday, we're studying two verses that stopped me in my tracks not too long ago--verses that go along with everything we've discussed in Season Five so far: not just DOING, but BEING.

For an important lesson on stewarding your influence God's way, press play, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend!

Have a happy #ToBeHeardTuesday!

You've heard me talk about this in previous #ToBeHeardTuesdays...

You've studied this topic with me before on ayanasymone.com/blog...

And, now?

We are revisiting the much-needed conversation again in today's episode.

I'm talking about:

HUMILITY.

If we are truly going to walk in our purpose & be who God has called us to be, we cannot possibly do that without keeping a humbled heart posture. Lucky for us, we're going to learn how to stay humble today by studying a significant passage of Scripture. You'll have to press play to hear more of what I mean!

"Let your yes be 'yes', and your no be 'no'." —Jesus

So simple, yet SO profound!

After realizing a poor pattern of prioritization in my journey of living out my purpose, these words are what inspired me to record today's #ToBeHeardTuesday. If you have a problem overbooking yourself, making too many commitments, adding to your calendar more than you have capacity for, today's episode is for YOU! Press play to hear more of what I mean! And, if the episode blessed you, be sure to let me know in the reviews!

Aaaand, we're back with a brand new #ToBeHeardTuesday!

This time? It's just you and me!

And, we're taking it back to a study I did this time around last year, where I challenged myself to read and study parts of the Bible I haven't gotten the chance to yet. And, let's just say, after reading the brief book of Philemon, I knew without a shadow of a doubt, you and I would have to study the book together. We're going to talk about a man named Onesimus & how treating him says the most about who we are.

You'll have to press play to see what I mean! And, stay tuned for so many fun things to come in 2024. Sign up to become a member at ayanasymone.com to stay connected. And, follow @tobeheardpodcast on Instagram as well.
