E56: What Was I Made For, Spiritual Gifts: Part 2

In this episode, we are picking up where we left off last week. If you’ve been feeling stuck in a "waiting room season," unfulfilled, or wondering what you were truly made for, this conversation is for you. You aren’t lost—you are being refined by the Potter for a divine purpose. Today, we are moving past the idea of simply discovering our calling and diving straight into activating the specific spiritual toolkits God has given each of us. The body of Christ was never meant to be empty-handed. We break down the practical, everyday realities of spiritual gifts like encouragement, teaching, administration, and mercy. Plus, I share a raw, deeply personal update about pushing past my own fears regarding joining our new church's worship team, and why spiritual mentorship and lifestyle consecration (fasting and prayer) change everything. God doesn't call the qualified; He qualifies the called. Stop settling for lukewarm faith. It’s time to pull the tools out of the shed, step out in faith, and put your gifts to work!

E55: What Was I Made For, Spiritual Gifts: Part 1

In this episode of Brewing Faith, we address the common spiritual ache of asking, "What was I made for?" This week's episode distinguishes between a career (a paycheck) and a calling (spiritual fulfillment), exploring how our struggles are often part of an uncomfortable process of divine refinement. To help us identify our unique spiritual gifts, episode 55 highlights three markers: holy desires, confirmation from mentors, and the effortless fruit of the Holy Spirit. Finally, we are encouraged to embrace the "waiting room" by shifting our prayers toward alignment with God's will and practicing fasting to silence worldly noise and clearly hear our calling. Part ONE of TWO!

E54: It Is THAT serious

In this episode, we are revisiting a vital question: Is our spiritual walk really that casual? (Spoiler alert: It’s not.) We dive deep into how modern culture, media, and technology subtly desensitize our hearts, target our children, and create a spiritual static that drowns out God’s voice. True love doesn’t mean compromising with darkness, and it's time to stop treating our faith like a casual hobby. Tune in as we discuss how to guard your home, protect your mind, and shift your daily diet from the noise of the world to the truth of the Word.

E53: Is Social Media Bad??

Is social media a modern battlefield or a Kingdom tool? In this week’s episode of Brewing Faith: Coffee and Conversations, we’re diving into a candid conversation about tech stewardship and how we navigate the digital world as Christians. Pulling from Ephesians 6:12, we explore what it looks like to guard our peace against online division, step away from the trap of seeking worldly validation, and protect our spirits from the constant noise. Whether you need the encouragement to try a social media fast or want to learn how to intentionally use your platform to shine Christ's light in dark spaces, this episode is for you.

Your lineage might shape your past, but it does not dictate your destiny. Join us as we share three practical, biblical steps to break toxic family patterns. Whether it's anger, anxiety, or addiction, walk forward in the freedom of the New Covenant.! The cycle stops here because at Calvary, Jesus already said, "It is finished."
