Go When God Calls
The Shema Life
In this episode, I share something God showed me while I was teaching the boys at Beacon of Hope Africa. We were talking about obedience, but it turned into something bigger. I explained how integrity is like the center of a wagon wheel. The other traits—like kindness, trust, forgiveness, and perseverance—are the spokes. The wheel can’t roll without strong spokes, and life doesn’t move forward without strong character. We also studied the word Shema from the Bible. It means to listen and obey as one action—not just hearing something...

When God Uses Your Passion — Even Whittling Wood
Show Notes: In today’s episode, I’m sharing how God can use even the simple things we love — our hobbies and passions — for His Kingdom. Whether it’s whittling wood, crocheting, or baking, God can take what’s already in our hands and use it to build something bigger for His glory. We’ll dive into the idea of Kingdom infiltration — how God wants to show up in every part of our lives, not just in the “big” things, but in our workplaces, friendships, hobbies, and even our downtime. I’ll also share personal stories from my life in Mozambique — fro...

But it’s often in the small, seemingly insignificant moments where God shows up. Today, we’ll talk about how God sees and cares for us, even when we feel invisible or like we’re struggling i...

Protected When I Didn’t See It Coming
Sometimes the hardest things hit us without warning. A few weeks ago, I was home alone, and I had a fall that could’ve ended in tragedy.

But it didn’t. “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” – James 5:16 In this episode, I share the story of what happened, how God protected me, and how the power of prayer may have saved my life.

When Obedience is Hard!
Obedience isn’t always easy, it often means stepping into the unknown, waiting longer than we want, or letting go of something we love without knowing what comes next. In this episode, I share a personal story of how God spoke to me about a transition I didn’t understand at the time, but later, I could see His perfect plan unfolding. Trusting God’s voice, even when it doesn’t make sense, is one of the hardest yet most rewarding parts of our faith journey. "To obey is better than sacrifice." – 1 Samuel 15:22 I’ve been thinkin...
