Unfinished but Faithful Podcast

Episode 15: The Season Where Nothing Makes Sense

Have you ever been in a season where nothing makes sense?

Where your prayers feel unanswered, your situation feels confusing, and you’re left wondering… “God, what are You doing?”

In this episode, we talk about those hard, in-between seasons — the ones where you’re trying to stay faithful, but everything around you feels uncertain.

Through Scripture and the story of Joseph, we’re reminded that just because life doesn’t make sense to us… doesn’t mean God isn’t working.

What feels like delay may actually be development.

What feels like a setback may actually be a setup.

If you’ve been feeling tired, confused, or distant from God — this episode is for you.

You’re not lost.

You’re being led.

🎙️ Share this episode with someone who needs encouragement in their waiting season.

Episode 14 Bible Study With Us: Matthew Chapter 10 (Part 1)

In this episode of Unfinished but Faithful, we dive into Matthew chapter 10—a powerful and convicting message about what it really means to follow Jesus.

This isn’t the soft, comfortable version of faith.

Jesus calls His disciples, gives them authority, and then sends them out… not into safety, but into opposition. He speaks on rejection, persecution, and the cost of choosing Him over everything else.

If you’ve ever felt like following God has been harder than you expected…

If you’ve felt misunderstood, stretched, or even alone in your walk…

This episode is for you.

We talk about:

✨ Being chosen and sent by God

✨ Why obedience isn’t always comfortable

✨ The reality of rejection and spiritual growth

✨ What it means to fully surrender

✨ Losing your life to truly find it in Christ

This is your reminder that you are not alone in this journey—and that even when it’s hard, God sees you, strengthens you, and walks with you every step of the way.

🎧 Study with us, reflect with us, and grow with us.

If this episode speaks to you, share it with someone who needs encouragement in their faith 🤍

Still becoming. Still faithful.

Thank you for being here and walking this journey of faith with me.

Episode 13: Reading vs. Studying the Bible

Have you ever opened your Bible… read the words… and still felt disconnected?

In this deeply honest episode, we talk about the real difference between reading the Bible and truly studying it—and why so many of us struggle to feel close to God even when we’re trying.

From inconsistency and quiet guilt, to feeling like God isn’t speaking, to the moments when the Word starts confronting you instead of comforting you… this conversation goes deeper than surface-level faith.

If you’ve ever felt confused, distant, or like you’re “not doing it right”… this episode is for you.

This isn’t about perfection.

It’s about relationship.

It’s about coming back.

It’s about going deeper.

Still becoming. Still faithful.

Thank you for being here and walking this journey of faith with me.

Episode 12

I almost ignored it.

But God wouldn’t let me.

This episode is about a real moment where faith required me to move—

not when I felt ready, but when I felt called.

If you’ve ever felt that nudge in your spirit and hesitated… this is for you.

Faith isn’t just belief.

It’s obedience

Still becoming. Still faithful.

Thank you for being here and walking this journey of faith with me.

Episode 11

In this episode, we dive into Matthew 9:1–38 and uncover the heart of Jesus—full of compassion, authority, and purpose.

From the healing of the paralyzed man to the calling of Matthew, we see that Jesus isn’t waiting for perfection—He meets us right where we are. This chapter reminds us that true healing starts within, that faith doesn’t have to be loud to be powerful, and that God is always doing something new in our lives.

We also explore the story of the woman who reached for Jesus in her suffering, the restoration of sight and voice, and the powerful reminder that nothing is too far gone for God.

But it doesn’t stop at healing…

Jesus ends with a call: the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.

This episode is a reminder that you are not only called to be healed—you are called to help others heal too.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, unseen, or unsure of your purpose, this message is for you.

Come as you are.

Have faith.

And be ready for what God is calling you into.

Still becoming. Still faithful.

Episode 10

So many of us feel like we have to “get it together” before God can use us…

like we need to heal more, grow more, or fix every part of ourselves first.

But the truth is—God has never used perfect people.

He uses willing ones.

In this episode, we break down the lie of perfection and dive into what Scripture actually says about weakness, obedience, and being chosen by God—even in the middle of your process.

Through stories of Moses, David, Peter, and Paul, we’re reminded that your past does not disqualify you… and your weakness is not a limitation—it’s an invitation for God’s power to move.

If you’ve been feeling unready, unworthy, or like you’re “not there yet”… this episode is for you.

You are not behind.

You are not disqualified.

You are still chosen.

🎧 Press play and be reminded:

You don’t have to be perfect to be used by God.

Episode 9

In this episode, we dive into Matthew 8:23–34 and witness the power and authority of Jesus in the middle of chaos.

From calming the raging storm to delivering two men from darkness, this passage reminds us that no situation is too overwhelming for God. Even when fear rises and life feels out of control, Jesus is still present, still powerful, and still in command.

We talk about what it means to trust Him in the storm, how fear can shake our faith, and how true freedom is found in surrendering to Him completely.

If you’ve been feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain—this episode is for you. Let this be your reminder that the same Jesus who calmed the sea can calm your heart.

✨ Come study the Word with us.

✨ Come be reminded of His peace.

✨ Come as you are.

Key Themes:

– Trusting God in the storm

– Jesus’ authority over fear and darkness

– Faith vs. fear

– Freedom through Christ

Episode 8

Some of us aren’t tired because we’re doing too much…

we’re tired because we’re allowing too much.

In this episode, I open up about what it really means to protect your peace—and how what we call “being nice” can sometimes be disobedience in disguise.

We talk about people-pleasing, emotional exhaustion, and the truth about boundaries from a biblical perspective. Because not everything that feels loving… is actually aligned.

If you’ve been feeling drained, overwhelmed, or stretched too thin… this episode is for you.

It’s time to stop overextending, start guarding your heart, and choose obedience over approval.

You’re not tired…

you’re over-accessible.

Still becoming. Still faithful.

Episode 6: Church Attendance Doesn’t Save You | Religion vs Relationship with Jesus

Many people grow up believing that going to church automatically makes them a Christian.
