S2E8: Seeking What's Above

It’s easy to get caught up in trying to do everything “right”. To meet the expectations we place on ourselves and measure our worth by how well we’re keeping up. But what if the invitation isn’t perfection… it’s perspective? In this episode, Jess and Mel talk about what it means to seek what’s above: to lift our eyes from the pressure of getting everything just right and refocus on Jesus. When we keep our gaze on Him, our decisions begin to shift. We stop striving to control every detail and start allowing Him to guide what we say yes to, what we let go of, and how we tend the “gardens” of our lives. We don’t need to have it all figured out. We just need to stay close to the One who does, and trust Him to lead us, one faithful step at a time. 👍 Be sure to like and subscribe for new episodes and updates! ▶️ Watch full episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@SimpleYesShow] ✨ Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [instagram.com/simple.yes.show] 🎶 Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AudioCoffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.audiocoffee.net/]

S2E7: Getting to the Root of Sin

Sin isn’t always just about what we see on the surface, it often points to something deeper. In this episode, Jess and Mel are back in the garden to explore how these deeper roots of our sins shape our habits, influence our thoughts, and even impact the people around us. Sometimes in ways we don’t even realize. When you're at the surface, it's easy to justify certain patterns or minimize their effects, but real freedom comes not just from removing the behavior, but from understanding what’s underneath it. Join us as we talk about practical and prayerful ways to step out of those cycles—through awareness, accountability, and a willingness to surrender to God’s will. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same patterns or wondered why certain struggles keep resurfacing, this conversation is an invitation to go deeper. Because healing begins at the root. 👍 Be sure to like and subscribe for new episodes and updates! ▶️ Watch full episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@SimpleYesShow] ✨ Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [instagram.com/simple.yes.show] 🎶 Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AudioCoffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.audiocoffee.net/]

S2E6: Weeding and Waiting - Making room and trusting God to fill it

Our sins are so much like weeds, entangled in a garden. Quietly taking root and crowding out the good God is trying to grow in us. Finding and uprooting them isn’t easy. It can be uncomfortable, messy, and even a little painful.Sometimes it starts just by admitting what needs to go, and trusting God enough to help you remove it. To create space for something new and beautiful to grow. But just as important is what comes next: the waiting.Instead of rushing to fill the space, we’re invited to pause, be still, and let God do what only He can. 🌱🤍 👍 Be sure to like and subscribe for new episodes and updates! ▶️ Watch full episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@SimpleYesShow] ✨ Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠ [instagram.com/simple.yes.show] 🎶 Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AudioCoffee⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.audiocoffee.net/]

S2E5: Letting Him Lead

Big decisions, small decisions - and everything in between - can feel heavy when we believe it all depends on us. In this episode, Jess and Mel reflect on what it looks like to release that pressure and truly let God take the lead. They talk about how the Lord is always guiding us through gentle prompts, quiet nudges, and moments of clarity if we’re willing to slow down and listen. And when we choose to follow with obedient, trusting hearts, we begin to realize we were never meant to carry it all on our own. Whether you’re facing something big or just navigating the everyday, this conversation is a reminder that God is not only leading the way - He’s carrying the weight, too. 🤍 👍 Be sure to like and subscribe for new episodes and updates! ▶️ Watch full episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@SimpleYesShow] ✨ Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠⁠⁠ [instagram.com/simple.yes.show] 🎶 Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AudioCoffee⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.audiocoffee.net/]

S2E4: Learning to Rest in the Unrest

Life rarely feels perfectly settled. There’s always something that feels unfinished, uncertain, or in need of fixing. Jess and Mel reflect on the realization that complete peace and perfection aren’t things we’ll ever fully achieve in this life — because that’s the promise of heaven. So often we spend our energy trying to control every outcome, solve every problem, and smooth over every difficult moment. But what if, instead of striving for perfection, we are being asked to practice surrender? As Lent invites us deeper into trust, let's explore what it looks like to let God take the lead in the midst of life’s unrest. To release the pressure to make everything right and instead rest in the truth that through every circumstance, He has us 🤍 13:00 - Take A Moment [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWxseX0a5ZY] 👍 Be sure to like and subscribe for new episodes and updates! ▶️ Watch full episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@SimpleYesShow] ✨ Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠⁠ [instagram.com/simple.yes.show] 🎶 Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AudioCoffee⁠⁠ [https://www.audiocoffee.net/]
