Walking in Obedience to God: When God Keeps Bringing It Back Up


Listen Later

Have you ever felt God repeatedly calling you to do something you've been avoiding?

In this Season 3 premiere of Purified and Proven, I share my personal journey of returning to college after years of delay, wrestling with self-reliance, navigating spiritual warfare, and learning to trust God through an uncomfortable season of growth.

For years, I knew God was calling me back to school, but fear, doubt, grief, and resistance kept getting in the way. In this episode, I discuss what happened when I finally said "yes" to God's direction and how He faithfully carried me through one of the most challenging semesters of my life.

If you're struggling to obey God, questioning your purpose, or facing a season that feels overwhelming, this episode is for you.
