Have you ever let shame keep you from God? In this episode of Walking Defined, Kate and Baylee talk about moving from shame to delight, learning reverence from Job, and discovering God’s unfailing love.

Drawing from the story of Job, the parable of the Prodigal Son, and their own walk with God, they unpack how shame whispers lies that push us away from God, while reverence and intimacy draw us closer. They talk honestly about wrestling with inadequacy, discouragement, and sin—and how delighting in God and remembering the work of Jesus changes everything.

This episode explores:

• Why shame keeps us distant from God and how to recognize the enemy’s lies
• How Job’s response to suffering shows us what true reverence looks like
• The only moment in the Bible where God “runs”—and what it reveals about His love
• Why obedience flows naturally from love, not rule-following
• How intimacy with God fuels delight, freedom, and lasting reverence

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve failed God too many times or carried shame that makes you want to turn away, this conversation will remind you of the truth: when God looks at you, He sees Jesus. His love covers all, and His delight is in you.

Kate and Baylee close this episode by praying over listeners, especially those who feel like the prodigal son—encouraging you to take even one step toward God, trusting He will run to meet you.
