I'm Olesya Kayton, and Knowing God Intimately is born from my own messy, beautiful journey of learning what authentic relationship with God really looks like, especially in the hard places.
This isn't a podcast about having it all together. It's about showing up honestly before God, removing the barriers we've built between us and His heart, and discovering that He wants intimacy with us even more than we want it with Him.
Together, we'll explore:
How to pray when you don't have the words
What to do when God feels silent or distant
Breaking free from shame and religious performance
Finding God in grief, doubt, and everyday life
Biblical models of deep spiritual intimacy
Practical disciplines that create space for God's presence
Whether you're in a season of loss, wrestling with questions, or simply longing for more, you'll find a friend here who gets it. We'll laugh, cry, and discover together that intimacy with God isn't reserved for spiritual giants, it's available to every hungry heart.
Join me weekly as we learn to know the heart of the God who's been pursuing us all along.

If only I could look at my younger self in the eyes and tell her a few things that would help her, I would start here.
As far back as I could remember, I have always asked people what advice they could give me. I was willing to hear any insights and guidance, and even correction... but surprisingly, most people didn't want to share what they have learned.
So here I am... Sharing with you what I wish someone shared with me when I was younger.
For the longest time, I thought that being a Christian was about doing what is right and about following a checklist. I found many checklists, especially every time I went to church (though it isn't the church's fault, just my misunderstanding). But then God showed up and revealed something crazy different. Join me today to hear about what God showed me a real Christian is.
Have you ever just felt like you couldn’t get out of the rut of your thinking? It just wouldn’t shift. That’s where I kept finding myself, and my life was stagnant until it all changed. March 6, 2019, I had a subarachnoid brain hemorrhage and my whole life changed. God was there with me through it, but what he showed me, has changed the way I see life forever. Join me as I share what happened to me and my husband that fateful day.
Prayer is probably the simplest and YET the most difficult thing to do for Christians. If someone asks you to pray out loud, do you always pass because your worried you'll say the wrong thing. Are you uncertain on how to talk to the "Man upstairs?" Or have you been talking to your Heavenly Father for a while and just want to grow in your prayer life? Today is for you, if you've ever wondered or experienced any of these things. Join me, and I pray your soul will find rest.
