Hi everyone! In this episode, I open up about my personal journey of learning to build meaningful friendships and how God has helped me grow in confidence along the way. I dive into why surrounding ourselves with a strong, Christ-centered community is not just beneficial but essential.

I share how being part of a Christian community has transformed my life and how we’re each called to not only receive love but to actively be a friend to others. From vulnerability to encouragement, we explore what it means to reflect God’s love in the way we care for those around us.

If you've ever felt alone, struggled with connection or just needed a reminder of the beauty of godly relationships, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I talk about my recent struggles with busyness and distractions and how these have impacted my relationship with the Lord and my daily life. I talk about the importance of rest and finding peace in surrendering striving to God. I share personal experiences when I have felt overwhelmed by striving, busyness and distractions, as well as how I have learned to surrender these feelings to God and prioritize time spent with Him and resting. I hope you find this encouraging and that you would learn to find rest in God while prioritizing rest in your daily life!

In this episode, I talk about the pursuit of the 'pure thing,' which is relationship with Jesus. I share about the experience that caused me to recognize this need in my life own life and what has helped me to be reminded of my constant need for Jesus. I read from John 6 and talk about the importance of abiding in Jesus, who is the Bread of Life and the One who sustains. I share about the importance of dependence on Jesus and how we are called and encouraged to run to Him at all times of the day, and through in and every circumstance. I hope you are encouraged by this episode!

In this episode, I share about the experiences throughout my life that led to me coming to know Jesus in a personal way and how I came to the understanding that relationship with Him is the one thing that truly satisfies my soul. I share about the times when I doubted God's goodness, moments when I deliberately disobeyed God and ran away from Him. I also share about the moments when God swept in and saved me from everything I was experiencing: all of the hurt, brokenness, heartache, anxiety, depression, sins and burdens I was holding onto. I share about the moment when I decided to fully surrender my life to Jesus and the feeling of true freedom that I experienced. There is so much freedom to be found in giving your life and your will to Jesus and allowing Him to lead your life. I pray you are encouraged as you listen to my story and that you can relate to some of my experiences.

Hi everyone! In this episode, I talk about the importance of finding our hope and trust in Jesus Christ over all else. I read through Psalms 42 and 43 and talk about how we can learn to endure through the power of our Lord and Savior, even when it is not our first thought or desire. I discuss the importance of surrendering everything to God, including our thoughts, anxieties and worries. God wants to carry our burdens and lift the weight off our shoulders! There is so much joy that can be found in resting in God's presence and abiding in Christ, no matter how hard it may be. I pray you are encouraged by this episode and are reminded of God's faithfulness through the ages and throughout your life, as well!
