God’s Presence at Christmas (and Always)

What do you do when your emotions tell you one thing—but God’s Word says another?
What if you feel hopeless when God says, “I am your hope”?

In this Christmas-week episode, we talk honestly about faith when feelings run deep, loneliness during the holidays, and learning to recognize God’s constant presence—even when we don’t feel it. Christmas can be a beautiful season, but it can also be complicated. Family dynamics, grief, anxiety, and unmet expectations can leave us feeling empty instead of fulfilled.

Through Scripture, prayer, and personal stories, I share why God’s presence is what truly sets us apart—and why knowing Him personally changes everything. We reflect on Moses’ bold prayer: “If Your presence does not go with us, don’t send us” and explore how walking with God is not about religion, but relationship.

You’ll also hear about my book 100 Prayers Releasing 100 Cares, a practical prayer guide designed to help you let go of anxiety, align with God’s promises, and pray Scripture with confidence—especially when words are hard to find.

This episode is an invitation:

• To stop carrying anxiety that doesn’t belong to you
• To learn how to trust God in the areas that feel hardest
• To remember that you are not alone—ever
• To discover that the greatest gift of Christmas is God giving Himself to you

Jesus came so we could have life—and have it abundantly.
This week, and every week, may you know His presence, His peace, and His joy.

📍 Every one of us is hungry to know God intimately—some of us just don’t realize it yet.

In this episode of Getting Personal With God, I explore why Scripture is essential for getting personal with God, how the Bible “reads us” while we read it, and why our deepest insecurities can only be healed by the truth of God’s love.

You’ll hear personal stories, laughter, and a powerful reading of Isaiah 53 that reveals what Jesus carried for you—your griefs, insecurities, guilt, and the lies that keep you from enjoying God’s presence. You’ll also hear why the Gospels are the clearest window into God’s character and why reading them is the fastest way to grow spiritually.

This episode is all about increasing your confidence with God, learning to recognize His voice, and becoming persuaded—deeply persuaded—that He is good, present, powerful, and passionately in love with you.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why everyone is created with a desire to know God
• How guilt and insecurity distort your time with God
• Why reading Scripture is essential for intimacy with Him
• How the Gospels reveal Jesus as the perfect human and perfect Savior
• How Isaiah 53 exposes the depth of what Jesus carried for your freedom
• Why God wants you to walk in authority, confidence, and emotional wholeness
• Practical encouragement to get back into your Bible and return to your “first love”

Whether you’re brand new to Scripture or returning after a long time, this episode will help you connect with God in a real, authentic, deeply personal way.

Have you ever been completely misunderstood—even when you were being clear? In today’s episode of Getting Personal With God, I share a personal story about communication gone wrong and how it revealed a much deeper issue: the way we hear matters just as much as what is said.

Using real-life experiences, biblical insight, and Ephesians 1, this episode explores why misunderstanding happens in relationships—and especially in our relationship with God. Many believers avoid prayer or time with God because of shame, low self-worth, mistrust of God’s character, distraction, or feeling like prayer “won’t work.” But Scripture shows God loves you, chooses you, listens to you, and desires a personal, intimate relationship.

You’ll learn how:

• Misunderstanding others mirrors how we can misunderstand God
• Identity wounds distort how we hear God’s voice
• The enemy twists truth to blind our minds
• Jesus modeled emotional maturity by not chasing misunderstanding
• Assuming “best intent” can transform relationships
• Praying Ephesians 1 brings revelation, intimacy, and clarity about who God is

If you want a deeper relationship with God, freedom from shame, and renewed confidence that He loves you and listens to you—this episode will encourage your heart and strengthen your faith.

Mentioned in this episode:
✔ Ephesians 1 (The Passion Translation)
✔ Overcoming shame, guilt, and relational distortion
✔ Growing in spiritual maturity and wisdom
✔ Prayer for revelation and intimacy with God

Hi Friend, Does your relationship with your earthly father shape how you see God? For many of us, it does—and it can deeply affect how we pray, how we read Scripture, and how close we believe we can be to God.

In today’s episode of Getting Personal With God, I dive into why so many believers struggle to feel loved by God and how distorted father-images, childhood experiences, church culture, and unhealed identity wounds quietly shape our entire spiritual life.

Through personal stories, emotional honesty, and a powerful walk through Ephesians chapter 1, this episode reveals God’s true heart as a Father who chose you, wanted you, planned for you, and delights in you. He is not distant, harsh, or religious—He is full of joy, generosity, and overwhelming love.

You’ll explore:

• How your childhood experiences can distort your view of God
• Why we often feel guilty, unworthy, or afraid to pray
• How religious voices or past environments can twist how we “hear” Scripture
• What Ephesians 1 actually says about being chosen, adopted, valued, and empowered
• How God planned for you before the foundation of the world
• Why the Holy Spirit seals you as His beloved child
• How revelation—not pressure—creates intimacy with God

If you want deeper confidence in God’s love, healing from painful beliefs, clarity about your identity, and a fresh desire to pray again—this episode is for you.

Perhaps I get a bit too personal in this episode, but the stories are real.

Sometimes our needs are big, and sometimes God thinks much bigger than we do. In this episode, we get real about what to do when what you see contradicts what God says.

Abraham wasn't the only one who struggled with trusting what God said, but He and we can grab hold of what will change our focus to help us believe the impossible.
