Ep. 48 - From Unbelief to Following Jesus | My Story

This week I'm sharing something a little different... my testimony... Again... Since this is my very first video podcast, I thought it was the perfect time to share how I went from unbelief to following Jesus, what He's done in my life, and why I started Becoming & Purpose in the first place. If you've ever wondered whether God could use someone like you, or you're just curious about my story, I hope this episode encourages you. No matter where you are in your faith journey, my prayer is that you leave with hope and a reminder that God is always calling us closer to Him. 🎥 You can watch my very first YouTube video here: 👉 https://linktr.ee/becomingandpurpose If this episode encouraged you, I'd love it if you'd share it with a friend. You never know who might need to hear it.

Ep. 47 - Building for God's Kingdom

This week I'm sharing some highlights from our trip to Life Surge and talking about something that's been on my heart ever since we got home: what it really means to do Kingdom work and build a life that glorifies God. We talk about using our gifts and careers to serve Him, what 2 Corinthians 8 and 9 teaches us about cheerful giving, and how generosity goes far beyond money. I also share a few ways I've seen God provide this week... from a safe trip to Boise, to stepping out of my comfort zone by sharing the podcast with someone new, to selling my camera so I can finally start working toward YouTube. If you've ever wondered how to discover your purpose or how God can use ordinary people to do extraordinary things for His Kingdom, I hope this episode encourages you to keep taking the next faithful step. As always, it's a little life update, a little Bible study, and a whole lot of learning to trust God one day at a time.

Ep. 46 - One Faithful Step at a Time

Today we're talking about purpose, prayer, worship, and learning to trust God when you can't see the whole picture yet. I'm sharing why I'm excited to attend Life Surge this weekend, what it means to build a business that glorifies God, some exciting podcast updates, and three practical ways we can continue pursuing God's purpose in our everyday lives. If you've been waiting for clarity, this episode is a reminder that God often reveals His plan one faithful step at a time. Reflection Questions from this episode: • Am I spending more time seeking answers than seeking God? • What gifts has God already given me? • Where have I already seen God providing in my life that I may have overlooked? • Is there one small step of obedience I've been avoiding? • What would change if I stopped worrying about the entire plan and simply focused on today's step?

Ep. 45 - The Things Our Fathers Teach Us

Father’s Day had me doing a lot of reflecting this week. In this episode, I’m sharing some thoughts on the importance of fathers, the lasting impact parents can have on their children, and how some childhood experiences can follow us into adulthood in ways we don’t always realize. I also talk about my own struggles with seeking approval, how God has been teaching me where my worth truly comes from, and how He has provided support and encouragement in ways I never expected. We chat about marriage, how far Roman and I have come in our faith journey, a few thoughts from FreedomCon, and then dive into 2 Corinthians 7 and what true repentance and transformation really look like. As always, it’s a little Bible study, a little life update, and a whole lot of figuring things out together.

Ep. 44 - Maybe Purpose Isn't What You Think

Have you ever wondered what your purpose is? Have you prayed for direction and wished God would just hand you the entire plan? In this episode, we're talking about what I've learned about finding purpose through faithfulness, prayer, obedience, and returning to God's Word again and again. I truly believe that everything we need... wisdom, encouragement, comfort, correction, and hope, can be found in Scripture, and I've yet to encounter a season of life where the Bible didn't meet me exactly where I was. We'll talk about what it means to trust God with the next step instead of demanding the whole staircase, how consistency in prayer changes us, and why purpose may be much closer than we think. I'm also sharing some exciting updates about my new weekly email newsletter, The Sunday Sip with Jaycee, and why I'm finally stepping out of my comfort zone to pursue YouTube and new ways of sharing the message God has placed on my heart. If you've ever felt behind, confused, or uncertain about what God wants you to do, this episode is for you. Because maybe purpose isn't one giant thing you discover someday. Maybe it's found in faithfully walking with God today.
