  • Shift Happens: Small Changes, Big Results with Rafer Owens Jr.

    Text me! Let your voice be heard in the Upper Room.

    In this week's episode Rosalyn sits down with her big brother, Mindset Coach, Podcast Host, Pastor, and author Rafer Owens Jr., to talk about the beautiful ways faith shapes how we live every single day. Rafer shares touching stories about his wife and kids as he walks us through his journey from a young, carefree dude to a life fully surrendered to God (still carefree!), and how his Simple Shift method helps people connect the dots between the spiritual and the practical. Rafer  shares the importance of emotional intelligence in living a life that is pleasing to God. The two also touch on making decisions, building relationships, and growing in Christ—not just on Sundays, but in the everyday moments that shape who we are. Whether you are a parent, an employee, a church leader or a teen, this is a conversation full of wisdom, testimony, and encouragement for your walk with Jesus!

  • An Invitation: Rest for Your Soul

    Text me! Let your voice be heard in the Upper Room.

    If your spirit feels weary or if you’ve been carrying burdens too long, this episode is a tender invitation to return to the feet of Jesus. Let Him carry what you were never meant to hold. There is rest here.
