Spending time with God is the number way to grow your faith whether you're walking through a hard time or things are fine. But I've found that we often have the wrong idea about what this time should look like.Our view of what our time should look like is often shaped by the examples we see around us.  And that's fine until it isn't. In this podcast, I'm sharing 3 truths you want to know if you're going to have a successful time with God each day. Truth #1: Your QT isn't supposed to look like anyone else's. Truth #2: The amount of time that you spend really doesn't matter. Truth #3: Your QT isn't really about you. If you've been blessed by this podcast, would you consider showing your support by sharing it with your friends or someone who needs encouragement as well as taking a moment to rate and review it in your listening app!

Have you ever wondered how to grow closer to God and strengthen your faith during hard times?In this episode, I want to introduce to you the Fearless Faith Roadmap. After looking back at the decade or so I realized that I've learned a lot about growing a strong faith during hard times, which you can hear a bit about in episode 1. I've summarized my journey into a system or framework.So today, I'm going to give you an overview of this roadmap and why I think it will help you as well. As you listen, I want you to keep in mind the life cycle of a butterfly: from egg to butterfly.Step 1: Egg This is when you become aware of your struggles, the fact that you are in over your head, and that you need to turn to God if you're going to make it throughStep 2: Caterpillar Spiritual growth is the focus of this step. Spending time with God in prayer, digging into scripture and other disciplines so that you can grow your faithStep 3: Pupa in Chrysalis  A chrysalis provides a safe place for a caterpillar to become a butterfly. Just like your time in the word and prayer provides a safe place for you to get to really know GodStep 4: Metamorphasis This is the hardest part of the roadmap. Where you have to dig deep and do the hard work of working through your hurts, pains and overwhelming thoughts and emotionsStep 5: Emerge from Cocoon When a butterfly finally emerges from the cocoon it doesn't fly away immediately. It takes a beat to rest. You need to do the same thing.Step 6: Butterfly Flies Away Even in hard times we can live with joy and peace. Don't forget to keep dreaming and enjoying life no matter what season you find yourself inIf you've been blessed by this podcast, would you consider showing your support by sharing it with your friends or someone who needs encouragement as well as taking a moment to rate and review it in your listening app!
