marriage is not what I expected...happy 6 months!!

so think about this: you're either going into a storm, in a storm, or coming out of one...let's talk about it

In this episode, our host Kyia Stammer explores a truth every believer knows but rarely talks about openly as Christians, we are always in one of three places: heading into a storm, in the middle of one, or coming out the other side. With grounding in scripture and practical wisdom for each season, she walks listeners through what each phase actually feels like, what God's Word says about it, and what to do when you're there. Whether you're in a season of peace that feels too quiet, barely keeping your head above water, or standing in the wreckage trying to find your footing again, this episode meets you right where you are!

why is being known so scary??

In this episode, our host Kyia Stammer invites listeners to slow down and ask a question worth sitting with, what does it actually mean to be known? As social media promises connection and delivers comparison, Kyia explores the biblical truth that long before any platform, any audience, or any accomplishment, God already knew you fully and loved you completely. This episode is a gentle reminder that you were never made to simply be watched, you were made to be known.
