Befriending God BONUS Episode: Live Book Release Gathering Q&A

Divine Alignment: A Ministry Of Life Or Death

Tanya shares a first-time public account of a 4:04 a.m. encounter with God that occurred in December of 2010 and reframed her view of the Holy Spirit, spiritual warfare, and divine alignment.  Scripture anchors a wake-up call to cruciform living, surrender in our methods and motives for obedience and a life defined by eternity including an exploration of: • A relationship with the Holy Spirit as one third of God's relational heart • A warning against altars to control and performance • A vision of the last days (the hour is late) • A ministry of life and death based on 2 Cor. 2:14-17 • A supernatural answer to prayer • Revelation 5 as a lens for urgency and hope We'd love to connect with our listeners!

Divine Alignment + The Altars of The Heart: Obedience Is Success

"To obey is better than sacrifice" 1 Samuel 15:22  Join us as we trace a straight line from Saul’s disobedience to the modern pull toward pride, people pleasing, and performative relevance, and we invite a return to divine alignment where obedience to God Himself is the measure of success. We end with a prayer of reconsecration to start 2026 with clean hands and a pure heart in the spirit of Psalm 24. In this episode we also discuss: • Defining divine alignment as full agreement with God's word + Spirit • 1 Samuel 15 as a framework for obedience over sacrifice • How culture normalizes disobedience and dulls reverence • New Testament warnings about flesh and false godliness • The 3 altars of the heart: pride, fear of man, relevancy • The danger of platform without hidden devotion • Practicing discernment to hear God directly • Living for the audience of One and in light of eternity • A guided prayer of repentance and reconsecration To sign up for retreat email notifications: https://tanyagodsey.com/work/redeeming-the-story-retreats-erg82 To purchase Tanya's Book: Befriending God: https://a.co/d/8MPpkqc Instagram: @tanyagodsey Support Tanya's Non Profit: www.redeemingthestory.org We'd love to connect with our listeners!

There Is More: The Activity Of God + Holy Hunger + An Inventory Of The Soul

Signs and wonders. These are the operative words for 2025 and here at the year's final exhale Tanya takes a moment to draw us back to one simple invitation: There is more—but the "more" often flows to those willing to risk it all for obedience and loyalty to God...those willing to pursue the purity of God's Presence above all else. This episode tells the story of this truth through a miraculous series of events that ushered Tanya and her family into the most supernaturally charged 9 months of their lives. If you’re weary of human strategy and starved for Presence, this conversation calls you into childlike faith, deeper surrender, and the courage to leave what no longer fits. She names the hard questions—what needs to be left behind in 2025? Who do you need to forgive and release?  What do you need to repent of and renounce? Tanya leads us in a year-end inventory of the soul to help us posture our hearts for radical loyalty to God and a willingness to be open to the possibility of being surprised by God in 2026.

Befriending God: An Invitation Into Transformation Through Disruption

In episode 8 we continue our 4-part series covering 8 biblical ways to hear and know God's voice. This week our focus lies on circumstances and impressions as doorways to discernment. With insights from Tanya's new book, "Befriending God," we'll journey through the life of Moses and Joseph, uncovering how their experiences with God—marked by adversity and divine intervention—can inspire us to listen closely to the guidance offered through our own circumstances and Spirit-led inner knowings. We also discuss what it means to cultivate radical loyalty to God in prioritizing this transformative question, "What is God saying?" and contemplate the requirements and rewards of a cruciform life through which we fully surrender to the lordship of Christ.
