EP31. Are we representing God well to our children?
Welcome back to "My Faith is Bigger Than My Fears" podcast. Today's epsiode we're going deep y'all. Are we representing God well to our children? Let's talk about it. Parenting is one of the most important ministries we'll ever have. And as followers of Christ, we don't just raise children-we're discipling future believers, future leaders, and future kingdom builders. So here's the question: Are we representing God well to our children?
Topics:
Fruits First- What do our children see? Our children watch us more than they listen to us. How are we treating others? Our we...

Today's episode, we're diving into a topic that mysterious for some, exciting for others, and for many-a little bit of both. We're talking about how God speaks to us through dreams.

The Dreamer- Joseph, Joesph(Jesus's earthly father), and Paul. God gave prophetic dreams to Joseph and it lead him to his God-given destiny.(Genesis 37:5 NKJV). Joseph(Jesus' earthly father) God warned Joseph to sav...

Welcome to My faith is bigger than my fears podcast. Today's episode is all about something so many of us long for- to truly be in the presence of God. Not just on Sundays. Not just during crisis. But daily. In the quiet, in the stillness, in the highs and lows of life.
Whether you're a beliver or someone longing to feel God more tangibly again, this episode is for you.
I'm going to walk you through four intentional steps that lead us into deeper communion with God:
1. Authentic relationship- Not religion. Not r...
EP 28. Stop talking.Swift to hear,slow to speak, slow to wrath.
In today's episode, we're coming from James chapter 1:19, which talks about being swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath. We're going to discuss what James is talking about these three characteristics that James says we should have if we are representing the righteousness of God.
Do you find yourself effectively listening to others, or are you quick to respond without truly hearing them out? Are you slow to anger, or are you the opposite of what James is talking about? Ask yourself, why are you so quick to not hear others out, to respond...
EP.27 Why are you constantly cheering others on but not cheering for yourself? Learning how to be your biggest cheerleader.
On today's episode, we're going to discuss why we constantly cheering for others but not for ourselves the way we cheer for others. Why do we overextend ourselves to people who aren't willing to do the same for us? We have to learn how to be our own biggest cheerleader, whether people support us or not. If you have people who support you and cheer you on, know that those are your people. But we're talking about those you reach out to on a regular basis and aren't getting that in return.
Today, we talking about three t...
EP.26 What does God's peace mean to you?
In today's episode, we're going to talk about Apostle Paul, who encourages us in Philippians 4:6 not to be anxious about anything. We're going to break down this verse, and then we're also going to talk about how the peace of God that surpasses all understanding guards our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Let's break down this verse. Paul tells us to be anxious for nothing, but rather to make our requests known to God through prayer and supplication with thanksgiving. Paul is telling us to trust God, no matter what our circumstances are, whether we're believing G...
EP 25: Are you giving yourself the same grace that you give others?
On today's episode we're gonna be talking about why we offer others kindness and compassion but often forget to extend the same grace to ourselves. Why is it hard for us to give ourselves grace? When I think about grace, I think about how I am forgiving, understanding, loving, and kind to others even even they have hurt me, but I don't extend that same grace to myself. Do you find yourself in the same situation?
Do you feel like you deserve grace? The best grace we have is God's grace. God's grace is His unmerited favor, Hi...
EP.24 Let them talk.
In today's episode, we're going to discuss how people can congratulate you and be happy for you while others are envious or jealous of you. One thing I've realized in my 40's is that it's okay to disagree and have your own opinion about you or others, but one thing we will agree on is respect. Regardless of whether someone likes you or not, in the words of my late grandmother, you don't let anyone treat you any kind of way.
Listen, if Jesus, who is perfect, had to deal with persecution from a certain group of pe...
EP.23: Are your fears controlling you?
Today's episode discusses how our fears control us or how we allow other's fears to control us. We know it's a natural instinct to remove ourselves, especially when we're in fight and flight mode. One thing we have to learn is how to face our fears and stop running away from them because of the unknown. God hasn't given us the spirit of fear. 2 Timothy 1:7
I realize that we can allow people to instill fear in us because they are fearful, and because we are second-guessing what we know should do, and we have a small piece...
EP.22 God's Plan
Today's episode I'm talking about how God interrupted, yet orchestrated, His plans for my son Chandler and his roommate Melvin. Question: Do we ever consider God's plans when making plans for ourselves and plan life with others, but do we ever consider God's plans for us? The Bible says, " The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." Proverbs 16:9 ESV
We know that God's plans are better than ours, but what if we are not willing to accept the plan God has laid out for us, a plan that causes loss, grief, uncertainty, or...
EP 21: Your storm is coming to an end.
On today's episode, we are going to discuss how your storm is coming to an end. And in the midst of the storm, are you trusting God? Even though there is evidence that you have gone through a storm, I am reminded that even in the midst of the storm, the skies will clear up, the clouds will come out, and God's sunlight will shine through.
We can talk about Peter, who was able to walk on water in the midst of a storm, but got distracted and lost faith because of the winds and rain, causing P...
EP 20: Stay consistent even when you don't see the results yet.
In today's episode, we were reminded that staying consistent is crucial, even when we don't see the desired outcomes yet. Provebs 18:16, "A man's gift taketh room for him, And bringeth him before great men." Reflect on why you started your journey in the first place. Let go of worries about likes, downloads, ratings, or subscribers. If God has called you to fulfill a purpose in His perfect timimg, you will witness the results you've been longing to see, but consistency is key.
I want to encourage someone that it doesn't matter if you only get one view...
EP 19: It's my birthday, reflection time.
On today's episode, I am reflecting on my birthday and year 42. It's definitely been transformative journey with its share of triumphs and setbacks, but I firmly believe that this month of May and the rest if the year will be truly remarkable. I am trusting God through year 43, and I have a lot to be thankful for, and I am excited for God's promises because He is faithful.
Even though I didn't get to accomplish everything on my list for the year of 42, and I understand it's OK. We shouldn't beat ourselves up about things that we...
EP 18: Stop giving everyone access to you.
On today's episode, we are talking about how we allow to many people to have too much access to us and how we are not obligated to share things with others. You don't have to share our next moves, business ideas, or even allow people in our space. It's okay to set boundaries so that people don't have access to you at all times. Sometimes we have to establish business hours, 9 to 5pm, with certain individuals, and that's okay.
Evan Jesus didn't allow everyone to have access to Him. Even Jesus would remove certain people who were do...
