In this episode, Elijah and his fiancée have an honest, Spirit-led conversation about what it truly means to follow Jesus when it’s uncomfortable, inconvenient, and unseen. They unpack the cost of obedience, the tension between purpose and surrender, and why a real walk with God often leads through wilderness seasons before the promise.

In this episode of A Cross The Table, Elijah breaks down one of the most overlooked struggles in faith — chasing purpose before finding peace. We talk about what happens when you run after your calling faster than your character, when you confuse movement for maturity, and how busyness can disguise itself as obedience.

Using the story of Moses, who acted on his purpose before waiting on God’s timing, Elijah explores how peace isn’t found after you fulfill your purpose — it’s what prepares you for it. With insight from Philippians 4:6–7, Isaiah 26:3, and Proverbs 19:21, this conversation invites you to slow down, realign with God’s pace, and rediscover the stillness that brings clarity.

Because before God sends you out, He wants to settle you within.

In this opening episode, Elijah sits across the table to ask one honest question many believers wrestle with — “Why am I unchanged?” He unpacks what it really means to know God beyond emotion, to let conviction lead to transformation, and how to move from inspiration to actual growth. This episode challenges you to stop settling for surface-level faith and start walking in real change.
