  • Surviving in a season of waiting, God is there, waiting with you...
    Jan 8 2026

    If you’re in a season of waiting, this episode is for you. Linnea Scobey reminds us that God doesn’t disappear in the pause—He meets us there.

    In this deeply moving episode, Linnea Scobey shares her journey of living in the waiting—those in-between moments where answers feel delayed, prayers seem unanswered, and life feels suspended between what was and what’s next. Through uncertainty, surrender, and quiet faith, Linnea discovered a powerful truth: God is not absent in the waiting—He is present, working, and preparing.

    Linnea opens her heart about learning to trust God when clarity is missing, how faith deepens in stillness, and why waiting is not wasted time, but sacred ground. Her story is a reminder that even when life feels paused, God is actively shaping purpose, beauty, and strength within us.

    This episode speaks to anyone navigating uncertainty, transition, heartbreak, or hope deferred—and longing for reassurance that they are not alone.

    Because sometimes the waiting isn’t the delay…
    it’s the invitation.

  • “Listening for the Whisper: How God Speaks in the Quiet Moments
    Dec 18 2025

    “Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10

    🎧 Listen in and be reminded that even in the quiet, God is near.

    God doesn’t always shout. Often, He whispers.

Working behind the scenes, Michael has learned that listening—both spiritually and practically—requires intention, stillness, and trust

    Dec 5 2025

    Rachel Ann Mencke shares a beautiful, vulnerable story that teaches us all to have gratitude for where we are....things are never as bad as they feel. It is easy to fall into sorrow or have a pity party about what isn't going right in our life, but the simple act of observing around us can help us become present, grateful, resilient and thankful. God meets us where we are and helps us move forward, not back.
