EP. 5: It Was Always About the Cross

EP. 5: It Was Always About the Cross

Easter isn’t just a story we’ve heard before, it’s the moment everything changed. In this episode, we’re talking about the kind of resurrection that isn’t just history, it’s personal. The kind of love that meets you in your brokenness, calls you by name, and doesn’t leave you the same. Because this isn’t about a perfect life, it’s about a Savior who stepped into death and walked out with victory. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your past, overwhelmed by your present, or unsure of your future… this episode is for you. You are not who you once were. Because of Jesus, you are now made new. This is the story of Easter. And it’s still changing lives today.

Ep. 4: Planted, Not Buried

Sometimes the seasons that feel the quietest are the ones where God is doing the most work. What do you do when life feels quiet and you don’t see the progress you hoped for? In this episode we talk about the hidden seasons when God is growing you in private. If you’ve been feeling overlooked, behind, or stuck, this is your reminder that God hasn’t forgotten you. You are not buried. You are planted.

Ep.3: Who Sits at the Center?

In this episode of Once Was, Now Am, I talked about what it truly looks like to put Jesus at the center not just in theory, but in real, everyday relationships. The friendships I have now don’t just know about Jesus… they know Him. And that has changed everything. I dived into how Christ centered friendships sharpen you, challenge you, call you higher, and cover you in prayer. I share what it means to stop building connections on convenience or comfort, and instead build them on faith, truth, and purpose. If you’ve ever felt lonely, misunderstood, or unsure of what healthy, godly friendship looks like, this one is for you. When Jesus is at the center, everything else falls into alignment.

Ep. 2: He's Not Done With Me Yet.

This is my story. Not the pretty or filtered version. The real one. From being adopted into a name I had already claimed… to watching my mom fight stage five cancer at 25. From hospital hallways in Gainesville to summers on a Texas ranch that shaped my calling. From losing one of my closest friends days before leaving for college… to standing at his funeral wondering how life could keep moving. From losing my sister in every way that mattered, to learning that grief doesn’t mean God left. This episode is about survival. About the kind of faith that grows in hospital rooms. About the kind of grief that comes in waves. About the moment I ran toward a baptism pool and let God change everything. I found Life.Church when I was asking God for family. I found purpose when I felt lost. I found strength when I felt empty. This isn’t a story about having perfect faith. It’s about a faithful God. If you’ve lost someone. If you’re walking through fear. If you’re wondering if God is still good… He is. And He’s not done writing your story either.

Ep. 1: The Dream That Started It All & Trusting God Without A Roadmap

In this first episode, I’m introducing myself, my heart, and the vision behind this podcast. I share how the Lord placed this calling on my life, the dream that sparked it all, and how I’m stepping into something I don’t fully have figured out. But am choosing to trust Him anyway. This is a space for faith, growth, healing, and becoming who God is shaping us to be. If you’re walking into something new, unsure, or learning to trust God in the unknown, this one’s for you.
