I Have Such Doubts

The church doesn't talk about doubt enough. But doubt doesn't mean you've lost your faith; it means something is still at stake. Today, I'm unpacking what Mark 9 and one of my favorite movies revealed about bringing your whole honest self to God. I have such doubts. And that's okay. Do you have 10 minutes? Join me

Sound On

Sound doesn't happen without tension. Just like a string vibrates the moment it's plucked, our back and forth with God produces something and He's in that with us. He's not just watching. He's actively looking for our commitment and obedience in every situation because He already knows how the song is supposed to sound. And trust me, the symphony hits different with a skilled conductor. Today, we're looking at what Jericho teaches us about all of that. Got 10 minutes? Join me

You Don't Have To Be In The Room

Got 10 minutes? Let me sit with you for a second. So today, I want to talk about something that I keep coming back to — the idea that you don’t actually have to be in the room for God to be doing something. I’ve been reading Esther, and one of the interesting things about that book is that God’s name never shows up. And still… You can feel Him everywhere. In the timing, in the way people cross paths, in how things line up. And I keep thinking about how often we assume that if we don't have a seat at the table, then we must be missing it and won't be fully considered. So if you’ve ever found yourself watching from the sidelines outside the "room where it happens", this episode is for you. Carla
