Get Ready With God

Ep. 171: Choosing What to Keep

You don’t have to believe everything you were taught or throw it all away. Today we’re talking about keeping what’s good, releasing what isn’t, and finding peace in the gray.

Ep. 170: Why Christianity Didn’t Work for Me (Then)

This is a reflection on the season when faith felt like harm instead of help. I share why I stepped away, what I couldn’t hold at the time, and how leaving was less about rejection and more about survival.

Ep. 169: It Matters That It’s You

I was deeply moved listening to my niece speak not because of charisma or polish, but because of who she is to me. It reminded me that influence isn’t about having the perfect words or a powerful delivery. It’s about relationship. In this episode, I talk about quiet honesty, soft courage, and the way our words land differently simply because we’re the ones saying them. You don’t need a mic drop moment. You just need to show up honestly for the people who love you.

Ep. 168: Find Your Conviction

It is easy to focus on all the places our faith is lacking, but sometimes that makes us miss the places our faith is strong. Let's look for it in the places we might not expect. 

Ep. 167: Stop Telling Me to Simplify

A devotional for anyone feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, and still called to more. This episode is about alignment, effort, and trusting that when something truly matters, God expands our ability to carry it.

Ep. 166: Feet on the Ground, Head in the Clouds

How do we stay realistic without becoming cynical, and hopeful without losing our grip on reality? Today I’m sharing the mantra that’s helping me live with faith, honesty, and a little holy delusion in 2026.

Ep. 165: When Your Faith (or lack thereof) Disappoints the People You Love

In this episode, I talk about what it feels like to live with the quiet weight of disappointing people you love. I explore how faith transitions, personal growth, and listening to your inner guidance can create real tension in families, marriages, and communities. I share why being misunderstood has shaped my relationship with God, how rejection can push us toward healthier sources of worth, and why turning to divinity instead of away from it has been both the hardest and most grounding choice of my life. This episode is for anyone walking a lonely path, trying to stay faithful to what feels true while grieving the loss of approval, certainty, or belonging along the way.
 
 

Ep. 164: Faith as Fiction

In this episode, I talk about a belief that surprised even my closest friends. What if faith doesn’t have to be literal to be meaningful? I explore why I’ve found peace in viewing scripture the way I view fiction, not as something disposable or false, but as a powerful way truth is communicated, held, and lived. If you’ve ever felt destabilized by questions about what’s real, what’s true, or what you’re allowed to believe, this episode is an invitation to loosen your grip on certainty without letting go of faith. This is for anyone trying to stay open, stay hopeful, and keep believing without needing everything to make perfect sense.

Ep. 163: Blessed Are the Try Hards

If all you do is win and you do it effortlessly you can skip this one. For everyone else? Let's talk about the sanctity in effort and how to sustain it when despite it all, you can't get the win.

Ep. 162: Stop Outsourcing Your Intuition

What happens when religion teaches us to outsource our intuition, and then we leave it behind? In this episode, I talk about faith, dissonance, internet authority, and why learning to trust God directly has changed everything for me. The goal isn’t to follow me. It’s to bring intuition back in-house and let God guide you personally.
