When You’re Doing Everything Right but God’s Still Silent: 2 Things I’m Learning About Trusting God in the Tension
Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right—you’re praying, obeying, staying faithful—and yet God is still silent? In this episode, I’m sharing two powerful lessons He’s been teaching me in this waiting season, right in the middle of our church transition. This is a story about obedience, surrender, and what it really means to trust God’s timing when life feels out of control. It’s about learning to let go of your need for clarity and choosing confidence in Christ even when you don’t have the answers. If you’re a young woman trying to walk authentically with Jesus—craving a deeper, more personal relationship with Him but struggling to hear His voice—this conversation will meet you right where you are. I’ll talk about how God uses quiet seasons to strengthen your spiritual growth, humility, and identity in Him, and how faith in the waiting can actually bring you closer to purpose and peace. Expect real talk, honest reflection, and biblical encouragement that reminds you: the pause isn’t punishment—it’s preparation. God may be silent, but He’s not still. He’s forming something beautiful beneath the surface of your story. 💌 P.S. I’ve got some exciting news coming soon—and my email fam will be the first to know!

23 | It’s Time to Let the Old You Die: Receive Freedom in Christ and Live Authentically You (The New You)
You know those habits you really want to break — the patterns that seem stuck on repeat, even though you love Jesus and want to change? In today’s episode, we’re diving into Ephesians 4:17–32, where Paul gives us a powerful roadmap for living a transformed life in Christ. This isn’t about behavior modification — it’s about renewing your mind, putting off the old self, and putting on the new one that’s created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. I’m sharing a funny middle school story (involving a not-so-great word choice 😅) and how it taught me that being a new creation isn’t just about what we don’t do — it’s about what we do put on. In This Episode: 💭 1. Renewing Your Thinking (Ephesians 4:17–19)Paul reminds us not to live — or think — like the world. Transformation begins in the mind. We’ll unpack how your thoughts shape your actions and how to develop a renewed mindset grounded in truth. 🧠 2. Putting Off the Old Self (Ephesians 4:20–24)Through Christ, you’ve been empowered to lay down your old patterns and step into a new way of living. Renewal is a daily process — and the Holy Spirit gives you the ability to walk in true righteousness and holiness. ✨ 3. Getting Specific: What to Put Off and What to Put On (Ephesians 4:25–32)Paul lists what needs to go — and what should replace it: Put off falsehood → speak truth Put off anger → forgive quickly Put off stealing → work and give Put off unwholesome talk → build others up Put off bitterness and malice → choose kindness and compassion Living this way protects unity, honors God, and keeps your heart sensitive to the Holy Spirit. 💜 4. Living a Transformed LifeGod’s goal isn’t better behavior — it’s a renewed heart. Holiness isn’t striving; it’s living out who you already are in Christ. Every day, you get to choose what to put off and what to put on. Reflection Questions What “old self” habit or mindset is God asking you to put off this week? What does “putting on the new self” look like for you — in your words, work, or relationships? How can you invite the Holy Spirit to renew your mind daily? Scripture References Ephesians 4:17–32Romans 12:2 Listen if you’re craving: Practical ways to grow in spiritual maturity Help breaking old habits or patterns Encouragement to renew your mind A deeper understanding of what it means to live as a new creation in Christ Resources & Links ✨ Join the Trust God, Be Confident Community → bit.ly/tgcommunity💌 Get weekly encouragement — join the email list → bit.ly/tgbcinsider

22 | Why Walking With God Feels Lonely (and What It Means for Your Faith Journey)
Walking with God can feel lonely — especially when you’re seeking to grow in faith, obedience, and purpose. In this episode, I share my personal story of praying through seasons of loneliness and longing for God to bring “my people” — friends who truly understand and walk alongside you in your spiritual journey. We explore: Why following Jesus sometimes feels isolating How the enemy seeks to devour us when we’re alone (1 Peter 5:8) Why we are designed for connection (Genesis 2:18, Ecclesiastes 4:9–10) How authentic Christian community keeps us safe, encouraged, and accountable (Hebrews 10:24–25) Practical steps to find your people and build meaningful, faith-filled friendships You don’t have to walk your faith journey alone. God has created us for connection — it’s time to step into the community He has for you. Scriptures Mentioned:1 Peter 5:8 | Genesis 2:18 | Ecclesiastes 4:9–10 | Hebrews 10:24–25 ✨ Take Action:Join our online community for encouragement, practical tips, and resources to help you grow spiritually without walking alone: https://bit.ly/walkconfident

21 | God Never Asked You to Be Their Savior: Escaping the Trap of Codependency with Christian Therapist Rachel Goff
Are you always the “fixer” or the “helper” — the one who can’t rest until everyone around you is okay? This week on Trust God, Be Confident, we’re diving into a topic so many of us wrestle with but rarely name: codependency. Host Sarah Coppiano and guest Rachel Goff unpack what codependency really is (and what it’s not), how it shows up in our relationships, and what healing through a biblical lens looks like.

Together, we explore:✨ A simple, clear definition of codependency✨ What codependency can look like in friendships, dating, and family life✨ Rachel’s story of finding freedom and healing in Christ✨ How Scripture calls us to healthy love and boundaries✨ Why true love doesn’t mean control — it means trust You’ll walk away encouraged to love others from a place of wholeness, not fear, and reminded that your worth doesn’t depend on who you can save — because Jesus already did that. Bible Verses Mentioned: Galatians 1:10 – Am I now trying to win the approval of people or of God? Matthew 22:37–39 – Love God first, then love your neighbor as yourself. Proverbs 29:25 – Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.

16 | What is TRUTH? Reflections on Charlie Kirk, Faith, and the Call to Critical Thinking
I’ll be the first to admit, this is not a political podcast, and I’m not a political expert. But in light of recent events and the tragic death of Charlie Kirk, I couldn’t stay silent. The Holy Spirit stirred me to share, even though I didn’t follow him closely or agree with everything he said. What I deeply respect is his courage to proclaim Christ and his commitment to truth. In this episode, I open up about the grief, shock, and prayers that have followed his passing and why his life reminded me of the importance of critical thinking and seeking truth. Together, we’ll look at scriptures like Acts 17, Romans 12, and John 14, and reflect on how we as believers are called not to conform but to test, discern, and anchor ourselves in God’s truth. You’ll also hear wisdom from church fathers like Augustine, Irenaeus, and Origen reminding us that truth is not up for debate, but rooted in God Himself.  👉 Pastor Clayton Baird’s post referenced on Instagram: A Call To Repent And if you’d like to stay encouraged with updates, resources, and behind-the-scenes thoughts I don’t share anywhere else, join my email list HERE Highlights from today’s episode: Why critical thinking is a spiritual discipline (Acts 17:10–11, Romans 12:2) What Charlie Kirk modeled about courage and conviction in faith How to guard against deception by clinging to Jesus as the Truth (John 14:6) Ancient wisdom from church fathers on the nature of truth A personal reflection on grief, faith, and discernment in a divided world
