Wait For It — Trusting God in the Waiting

In today’s episode we dive deep into the powerful themes behind the song “Wait For It” from Hamilton. What happens when everyone around you seems to be moving forward — getting the break, the blessing, the answered prayer — and you’re still waiting on God? Through Scripture and storytelling, we explore how seasons of waiting aren’t punishment, but preparation. We’ll walk through the lives of Abraham, Joseph, and David and uncover what “waiting on the Lord” really means.


If you’ve ever felt stuck, overlooked, behind schedule, or uncertain about your next step — this episode is for you.

God hasn’t forgotten you.

He’s forming you.


Grab your journal, your Bible, your tea or coffee, and let’s step boldly into trust, surrender, and God’s perfect timing. 🕊️✨

Because in God’s hands, the waiting is never wasted.

Born to Be Different: The Anthem of a Christ-Centered Life

This week on Christ Pop, we’re diving into a classic anthem of rebellion — “The Anthem” by Good Charlotte — and flipping it into a holy rebellion. This isn’t about chaos or pride, it’s about refusing to conform to the world’s standards and embracing who you were created to be in Christ.

We’ll unpack how God calls us to be set apart, how to stand firm when everyone else bows to culture, and how to live boldly for Jesus even when it makes us look “different.” Because in God’s Kingdom, different is divine.

The Next Right Thing — Faith When You Can’t See the Way Forward

When the world feels dark and hope seems far away, sometimes all we can do is take one step — the next right step. In this emotional and faith-filled episode, we dive deep into Frozen 2’s “The Next Right Thing,” exploring how Anna’s journey through grief and courage mirrors the biblical call to trust God one step at a time. From David’s laments to Elijah’s quiet encounter with God, we’ll see that even when we can’t see the whole path, God’s light is still guiding our feet.


Join me as we talk about faith in the fog, obedience over understanding, and how to keep walking when your heart feels broken. Whether you’re standing in a storm or just trying to take your next step, this episode will remind you: you’re never walking alone. 🌙✨

Show Yourself — Discovering Who God Says You Are

What if the voice calling you isn’t out there… but within?

In this episode of Christ Pop, we step into the heart of Frozen 2’s anthem “Show Yourself” — a song that isn’t just about magic, but about identity, truth, and divine calling.


Elsa’s journey mirrors our own spiritual walk: the search for who we really are, the fear of stepping into our purpose, and the beautiful moment when we finally see ourselves the way God does.


Through Scripture, reflection, and heartfelt conversation, we’ll explore what it means to uncover the truth hidden inside — the version of you that was knit together by the Creator before the world told you who to be.


✨ Step into your power.

💫 Step into your purpose.

🌊 Step into His presence.

It’s time to show yourself — the way God designed you to be all along.

Home — Longing for Heaven

In this heartfelt episode of Christ Pop, we dive into Michael Bublé’s timeless ballad Home and explore the deeper longing it expresses — the ache we all feel for a place where we truly belong. While the song speaks of missing loved ones and the comfort of being where your heart rests, the Bible reminds us that our ultimate home isn’t here on earth at all — it’s with Christ in heaven.


Join me as we unpack Scripture that points us toward eternity, reflect on how our spiritual homesickness is a reminder of God’s promises, and discover how to live with heaven in view even while walking through the temporary homes of this world.


If you’ve ever felt that ache for “something more,” this episode will encourage you to fix your eyes on Jesus and the forever home He’s preparing just for you.

Gonna Be Golden: Finding God’s Glory in Your Story

“Golden” isn’t just a song—it’s a cry of identity, freedom, and healing.

In this episode of Christ Pop, we’re diving into the powerful anthem from K-Pop Demon Hunters and uncovering its deeper spiritual echoes.


We’ll talk about what it means to shine in the identity God gave you, to break down the walls that kept you chained, and to rise into the freedom only Christ can provide. Just like the lyrics cry out about being “born to be” and breaking free, Scripture calls us to step out of hiding and live boldly as children of light.


Through the Bible, we’ll explore themes of identity, purpose, and healing—and how the moments of brokenness in our story can become golden when surrendered to Jesus. ✨


If you’ve ever wrestled with who you are or wondered if your scars could ever be redeemed, this episode will remind you: in Christ, you’re already golden.

Rebels in Our Heart: Choosing Christ Over Culture

“Rebel Heart” by IVE is more than just a bold anthem—it’s a mirror of the spiritual tug-of-war we all face.

In this episode of Christ Pop, we’re diving deep into the lyrics and exploring how they echo a bigger truth: the struggle between following the world’s ideals and surrendering to God’s way.


We’ll unpack what Scripture says about living “set apart” in a culture that celebrates rebellion against God—and how we can channel our boldness into a holy rebellion that fights for truth, not against it.


From identity and conviction to resisting temptation and choosing the narrow road, this episode is a challenge for every believer to ask: What am I truly rebelling against?


If your heart has ever felt torn between the world’s approval and God’s calling—this one’s for you.


🎧 Listen now and let’s talk about what it means to have a Rebel Heart for the Kingdom.

Levanter: Losing the World, Finding Jesus

Before we dive in, let’s talk about the word “Levanter.” It’s actually a real wind—a strong easterly wind that blows through parts of the Mediterranean. It’s known for being sudden, powerful, and full of motion.


But in the context of this song, Levanter feels more symbolic. It’s not just about the wind outside—it’s about the wind within. It’s about the moment when you let go of what was never truly yours and allow something bigger, more freeing, to carry you forward. For me, that wind represents the Holy Spirit—the breath of God moving us from brokenness into wholeness, from confusion into clarity, from striving into surrender.


⚠️ Disclaimer:


And as always, I want to offer this gentle reminder:


Nothing I’m sharing in this episode is meant to reflect the original intention or personal beliefs of the artists or writers of this song. This is simply how my heart and my faith interpret and relate to the lyrics.


I believe God can speak to us in unexpected places—including through K-pop—and Levanter is one of those songs that stirred something spiritual in me. So today, I’m just sharing that perspective with love and humility.

In this raw and heartfelt episode of Christ Pop, we’re diving into BLACKPINK’s emotional ballad “You Never Know” to uncover the hidden pain behind the polished image. We’re talking about gossip, bullying, misunderstood hearts, and how easy it is to overlook someone’s silent struggle.


Through Scripture, we explore the power of words—how they can tear down or build up—and why God calls us to speak life, not shade. If you’ve ever felt unseen, judged, or worn out from holding it all together, this episode is your safe space. Let’s talk healing, truth, and becoming the kind of people who choose grace over gossip.


✨ Because you never really know… unless you look with love.

Kpop demon hunters- Broken + Free: A Redemption Story

In this powerful episode of Christ Pop, we dive into the themes of K-Pop Demon Hunters, spotlighting two impactful songs: “Free” and “What It Sounds Like.” These songs echo the internal war so many of us face—wrestling with shame, identity, and the pull of darkness.

Like the characters in the film, we too can rise, reclaim our names, and realize that our scars don’t disqualify us—they become the very evidence of God’s glory.


Whether you’re in the fight of your life or finding your way after a fall, this episode reminds you: You are not too far gone. You are seen. You are loved. And in Christ, you are free.
