“Here’s What To Do If God Asks You To Wait” S3 E4
If God leads you to wait, what do you do until He gives you the next step? You have a choice, and how you spend that time makes all the difference. Let’s talk about active waiting.
Pull up a chair 🪑, and HIT PLAY.
🎧 If you find yourself in a waiting period because God isn't revealing what He wants you to choose next, then this is a sober reminder that how we spend our time waiting is crucial. This is not a throwaway season. We are called to active waiting. Not sure what that means? Pull up a chair 🪑 and let's talk about it. Hit play now.

“Not Hearing From God? Listen To This.” S3 E2
Today we dig in with 4 applicable steps to discerning God’s voice leading you. It’s not what you think.
Pull up a chair 🪑, and HIT PLAY.
🎧 We all want to be led by God, but many times it feels like He's just not speaking. While there may be some validity to that (we'll talk about it next week), I believe that for the most part, He IS speaking. The problem isn't that God has stopped communicating; it's what we're doing to position ourselves to listen.
Pull up a chair by hitting play, and we'll talk about:
One of the less-conventional ways God speaks to me--it's how I knew to talk about this subject on the pod!
A step you can take BEFORE you listen that helps make discerning His voice easier.
The cheat code to hearing God's voice (this is especially for the newer Christians).
The long-game answer to how you can hear God all the time (this is for all of us)!
