In this episode, I'm diving into what it really means to be bold for Christ. Lately, there’s been a wave of “boldness” rising in the body of Christ, and while courage it's beautiful, not all of it is Spirit-led.
Join me as I unpack the difference between being bold and being brash, reminding you that true courage flows from the Holy Spirit, not our emotions. Through Scripture, reflection, and prayer, you’ll learn how to walk confidently in your faith while keeping compassion and gentleness at the core.
💡 In this episode:
The difference between boldness that builds and boldness that breaks
Why being loud isn’t the same as being light
How to speak truth in love — even online
Practical ways to stand for your faith without losing your peace
A prayer for Spirit-led courage in your daily walk
If you’ve been wondering how to live your faith out loud without losing your fruit, this episode is your reminder: you can be bold and beautiful in Christ.

Love is not just a feeling. Love is a commitment to doing what's right.
In today's episode, I explore a passage that is not typically used when referring to a picture of the Father's love. I go through what love looks like using Genesis 3 when God sends Adam and Eve out of the garden.

In this episode, I discuss the importance of turning to God first when we go through things.
Today's society welcomes wine culture and it can be dangerous for us as the body because it encourages us to turn to something else before God in our times of need. ANYTHING that we turn to - wine, food, friends, music, etc - before God can become an idol. It doesn't make these things inherently bad, it puts them out of position. God wants us to remember that He is always to be number one in our lives.

One of the recurring themes in the Bible is the holiness of God. he made every effort to show how different He was from other gods and cultures.
From the beginning, He desires His people to look like Him. He commands us to be holy as He is holy (Leviticus 11:44; 1 Peter 1:15-16)
Many people make the excuse that it's too difficult to carry this out in modern times. They either forget or don't realize that the Israelites were always in other cultures having to carry out God's commands of holiness.
In this episode, we explore what the Word says regarding how to be holy no matter the culture and the time.

In this brief episode, we dive into the idea of not medicating the symptoms of what we face but getting to the root of the issues that we are dealing with. The goal is to get us to take a step back and go deeper into things that have been repressed and expose them so there can be healing.
It's time for us to be free. For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm, therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. (Galatians 5:1)
