Podcasts about Awaken

Success in the Christian life is not measured by relentless output, but by deep enjoyment and awe of God. The high-performer's journey is to move from striving to abiding, from anxious self-optimization to restful delight. This week, Stephanie challenges us to reconsider our definition of success: Will we dare to let our delight in God, and His delight in us, become our most treasured spiritual possession?Many Christians find themselves exhausted, seeking spirituality through constant effort rather than true joy. In our current series, Awaken Delight, we explore different ways that prevent us from living the reality of Psalm 37:4, Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.This week, we explore the dangers of "high-performance Christianity" and discover the invitation to redefine success by delighting in God rather than striving to impress Him.Our FREE gift to you today! An exclusive 30-day FREE recovery plan to rekindle your delight in God when you are feeling weary and exhausted in your faith: go to https://www.gospelspice.com/awakendelightthepodcast and find the form for Episode 448. Give us your email, and you will receive the full plan in your inbox immediately!Let's be completely honest. Are you…Exhausted by trying to “feel” spiritual?Performing faith without real joy?Feeling unworthy despite consistent effort?Wondering if Psalm 37:4 really works?What if the problem isn't your faith, but the way you've been pursuing God? Delight isn't about effort; it's about learning how to receive God as your deepest joy.This isn't extra joy on Sundays. It's the foundation for deep delight in God which willstrengthen your prayer lifeprovide you with resilient peace,reframe your pain and suffering,transform your obedience into soul-satisfying joy.Many Christians become experts in prayer, service, and discipline but forget the joy of simple communion with God. This mindset measures spiritual health in terms of effort and accomplishment: “Did I pray enough? Did I do enough?”The Dangers:Spiritual Output over Relationship: Faith becomes a checklist of activities rather than a relationship rooted in love and delight.Performance Equals Worth: Feelings of worth rise and fall based on spiritual “productivity.” Rest becomes guilt-ridden and Sabbath feels inefficient.Comparisons and Insecurity: The high-performer compares their visible fruit to others', believing that more impact equals more favor from God.This mindset leads to spiritual dryness. High performers feel relationally undernourished: “Effective for God, but not really deeply at rest in God”. Growth is sought in results, but true spiritual maturity often appears slow, cyclical, and hidden. When setbacks arise, self-worth plummets, and failures feel catastrophic.At its core, this approach makes delight in God seem like a luxury reserved for the less “serious." But Scripture repeatedly calls delight foundational, not optional. "Delight in the Lord" is central — it deepens trust, strengthens endurance, and transforms work into worship.How do we shift from performance to delight? We must reorder our ambitions with God at the center. As Stephanie explains, “Your problem isn't that you're too serious, it's that you're too serious through the lens of a secular operating system”. The calling isn't to do less, but to let delight in God be the fuel, not the reward, of our efforts.Practical Steps:Identity Rooted in God's Delight: Our worth is anchored in God's unshakeable love, not our achievements.Work Flows from Delight: We work, rest, and strive not to prove ourselves, but out of the security that comes from being loved by God.Resilient Obedience: Obedience is rooted in delight, not desperation; failure or success does not shake our identity.Delighting in God is not just an emotion—it is a chosen, steady confidence that allows us to pursue excellence without fear. When rooted in God's love, ambition becomes resilient, setbacks less threatening, and rest becomes restorative. As Stephanie encourages, “Taste and see that the Lord is good”. This call is an invitation into a secure, unshakeable identity and delight —the true measure of success."Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4 isn't a poetic suggestion — it's a promise. But many believers quietly assume it doesn't really work, or it's not really possible here on earth.In Awaken Delight, Stephanie Rousselle invites you to rediscover what Scripture actually means by delight — not emotional hype, not religious performance, but a steady satisfaction rooted in who God is.Delight in God isn't a mood to manufacture; it's a relationship to receive.Through biblical theology and practical rhythms, you'll learn how communion with God reshapes suffering, quiets restless striving, and anchors your identity in something unshakable.Delighting in God isn't sentimental optimism. It's deeply rooted in Christ, Jesus.It's the quiet revolution that reshapes how we endure pain, love others, and understand our own heart.Awaken Delight is a theologically grounded spiritual formation book for thoughtful believers who feel spiritually fatigued and are ready to embrace the reality of Psalm 37:4.More at https://www.gospelspice.com/awakendelight Purchase the book, "Awaken Delight" by Stephanie Rousselle: https://a.co/d/0bqhUb5JKind words from Jennifer Rothschild, Bible teacher, Author, Speaker, Podcast Host, Founder, Fresh Grounded Faith:“Stephanie helps us awaken to and experience true delight.

Pull up a chair and let your heart sit alongside Stephanie. As your delight in God wakes up and becomes fully realized, you'll find a satisfaction in Christ that makes you want more and more.”Kind words from Amanda Jenkins, Lead creator of THE CHOSEN's literary content"I have yet to meet another person quite as eager to intimately know Jesus as Stephanie is. Her enthusiasm for the beauty found inside a thriving relationship with her Savior is downright contagious.

She does so practically and helpfully, and in a style that sparkles with a verve and joy that is distinctively French."Kind words from Pippa Gumbel, Pioneer, The Alpha Course; Author, The Bible in one year with husband Nicky"Stephanie's love of God is inspiring and infectious. Her book is an invitation to share in that delight and to come to know God in new and wonderful ways." More at https://www.gospelspice.com/awakendelight Purchase the book, "Awaken Delight" by Stephanie Rousselle: https://a.co/d/0bqhUb5JSupport us on Gospel Spice, PayPal and Venmo!

In this milestone Episode 150 of Why Not Meditate?, host Masako is joined by her dear soul sister, Ginger Ready — an Embodiment and Energy Coach and Reiki Practitioner devoted to helping women awaken the spiritual power already within them and step fully into their soul's purpose.Ginger's approach is both grounded and expansive. She reminds us that you can be mystical and everyday. You don't have to choose between worlds or shrink yourself to fit into one identity. Instead, you are invited to fully embody who you already are.In this conversation, we explore what it means to awaken your authentic self, shift your energetic state, and begin living in alignment with your inner truth. We also speak about the importance of moving the body, listening inwardly, and learning to trust your intuition as a guiding force in your life.Ginger and I also share about Rise and Reset, our collaborative early morning beach gatherings in Sarasota, Florida — where somatic movement, breathwork, and energy healing come together in nature to support deep regulation and transformation. If you're local, we would love to welcome you to a future session.This episode is an invitation to remember your own inner wisdom, reconnect with your body, and explore what becomes possible when you begin to live from a more embodied and authentic place.About Ginger:Website: www.theembodiedfrequency.comGet on a waitlist for The Awakened Woman A Soul Frequency Journey!InstagramTiktokWays to connect with Masako:Let's meditate together on InsightTimer!Why not meditate?

Send me a Text Message!In the last episode, I encouraged us to ask God for more. But here's the reality, too often we are satisfied to settle for something less than all God has for us. Why are we satisfied to settle for less? Are we satisfied to settle for less purity in our hearts? Are we satisfied to settle for less people following Jesus? Are we satisfied with the state of our relationships. Are we satisfied with the degree to which we know God and experience his presence in our lives? Or do we want more? In this episode, we'll ponder a couple of reasons why we settle for less and I will encourage you, "Don't be satisfied with less, because there is more!"

Send me a Text Message!Someone asked me years ago, "What do you picture when you keep talking about and praying for an awakening, for a revival. The question surprised me, not that it was asked but because I didn't have a quick answer. But as I've thought about it, while it is as varied as the creative work of God. If I could give it just one word, it would be the word, MORE. I just want more. More Jesus. More of His Spirit. More glory. More neighbors being loved. More holiness. More power in prayer. More people coming more alive to the glory of God and the love of Jesus. More joy. More presence.God cannot be manipulated, but He can be asked. So would you join me and ask God for more?

High performance and burnout are not opposites. For a lot of people, they're the same thing wearing different clothes. This episode is for the professional who is achieving by every external measure and still feeling like something is off — because that feeling is data, not weakness. Nancy Gentle Boudrie joins Bryce to talk about the inside-out approach to career alignment: what it means to make regulated, values-driven decisions about your work instead of just reacting to demands and hoping things improve. Nancy brings neuroscience and mindfulness together in a way that's practical and direct — no meditation retreat required. This episode is for high-achievers who are tired of running on autopilot and ready to make intentional choices about where their energy actually goes. About Nancy Gentle Boudrie: Nancy Gentle Boudrie is a mindset coach, corporate wellness speaker, and entrepreneur with over 20 years of coaching experience and more than three decades of business leadership. She is the creator of the Pathway to Inner Peace — Featuring the 4R Method®, an evidence-based framework blending neuroscience, mindfulness, and energy mastery. She is also the founder of the Awaken with Light App, a digital platform offering mindfulness tools and live emotional resilience practices. What We Cover: Nancy's background and what led her to build a framework around inner peace for high performers What "living on autopilot" actually looks like in a demanding career The inside-out approach — why regulation and values alignment have to come before strategy Burnout as a signal, not a failure — what it's telling you and how to listen The 4R Method and how it works in real professional contexts How to evaluate whether you're in the right fit — job, role, or career path Finding the right fit through entrepreneurship vs. staying and building from within Where to find Nancy and how to work with her Key Takeaways: Autopilot isn't neutral — it's a slow drift away from what you actually want from your career Burnout in high performers often looks like more output, not less — it hides well Regulation comes before decision-making — you cannot make good career choices from a dysregulated state Values alignment is not a soft concept; it's a performance variable that shows up in your work, energy, and retention The question isn't always "should I leave" — sometimes it's "am I showing up as myself here" Resources + Links: Awaken with Light: https://www.awakenwithlight.com/ Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nancyboudrie/  

What if the reason intimacy still feels blocked in your marriage… isn't because you don't want connection?What if it's because you're still protecting your heart?In this episode, we're having an honest conversation about something many women feel—but rarely say out loud.You want to feel close again.You want emotional connection, intimacy, and romance.You're trying. You're more aware. You're even showing up differently.But when it comes to real intimacy… something still feels off.And if you're honest…it's not just about your husbandIt's that you don't fully feel open.You might notice thoughts like:“He won't respond the way I need”“He doesn't go deep enough”“It's just easier to keep this to myself”So you stay a little guarded.A little filtered.A little protected.Let's gently challenge that…You say you want intimacy…but are you actually letting him in?Because this right here is one of the biggest hidden blocks to connection in midlife marriage.⸻In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why feeling guarded can quietly block emotional connection, intimacy, and desireHow past disappointment and unmet expectations shape how you show up in your marriageWhy protection may have served you before—but is now creating distanceThe truth about vulnerability and how it rebuilds intimacy and connectionSimple, practical ways to begin opening your heart and letting your husband in again⸻The Truth About Intimacy & Connection in Midlife MarriageHere's what most women don't realize:Intimacy is not created by effortIt's created by opennessNot by saying the perfect thingNot by your husband doing everything rightBut by you being emotionally availableBecause when you're guarded:you don't fully expressyou don't fully engageyou don't fully receiveAnd over time, connection begins to fadeNot because you don't love each otherbut because you're not fully letting each other inBut here's the shift:The same protection that once felt safe…is now keeping you disconnected⸻A Faith-Based Perspective on IntimacyGod never designed you to live guarded in your marriageHe designed marriage to be a place of:connectionsafetyand being fully knownBut that requires trustNot just in your husbandbut in God working through your marriageSometimes the step of faith isn't fixing anythingit's opening your heart again⸻Your Next Step (Make This Simple)This week, practice one small shiftChoose one moment to be more open than you normally wouldThat might look like:sharing something you usually keep to yourselfexpressing appreciation more freelysaying how you really feel instead of brushing it offNothing bigjust one real momentBecause this is how:connection growsintimacy rebuildsand your marriage begins to feel alive again⸻Ready to Go Deeper?If this episode spoke to you, come join me inside my private Facebook community:Empty Nest Wives: Rebuilding Intimacy & ConnectionThis is where we walk through:rebuilding emotional connectionrestoring intimacy and romancelearning to open up again in a safe, faith-centered wayand creating a marriage that feels connected and aliveOr send me a message.

Send me a Text Message!This episode is all about joy. You will hear me say that I think we have seriously underestimated two things. We have seriously underestimated our need for joy and we have seriously underestimated God's capacity for joy. Listen, God has no desire to wake us up to our sin, our failure; He has no desire to wake us up to our dark thoughts or our undone good; He has no desire to wake us up to our shame and then just leave us there. God wants to awaken us to the fullness of joy that comes in His presence. Every true awakening leads to an awakening to joy. And as Nehemiah told them, "The joy of the Lord is our strength!" 

Most of us have expectations. Expectations about how life should unfold. How other people should behave. How quickly we should heal. What success should look like. Who we should be by now. We often think expectations help us get more out of life. We think they keep us motivated, focused, and moving toward our goals. But what if they're actually doing the opposite? What if our expectations are keeping us stuck, disappointed, resentful, and blind to what's right in front of us? In this episode of Cacao Conversations, we're exploring the expectations we place on ourselves, the expectations we place on others, and the expectations we place on life itself. We talk about: why expectations so often lead to frustration and disappointment the hidden contracts we create with other people "it was supposed to..." and the stories we tell ourselves how expectations can create resentment in our relationships the pressure we place on ourselves to be further along the difference between having intentions and being attached to outcomes how expectations can prevent us from seeing new possibilities Sometimes the very thing we're clinging to is the thing standing in the way of what wants to emerge. If you've ever found yourself frustrated because life isn't going according to plan, this conversation is for you. Because maybe the problem isn't that life has gone wrong. Maybe your expectations are keeping you from seeing what's possible. New episodes of Cacao Conversations drop weekly. Sip. Connect.

What if the reason so many women feel exhausted, anxious, disconnected, and overwhelmed… has nothing to do with a lack of willpower?In this episode, I sit down with holistic women's and menstrual health expert Nicole Bendayan to explore the truth about hormones, birth control, cycle tracking, feminine energy, fertility, and the wisdom of the female body.For decades, women have been taught to suppress symptoms instead of understand them. Painful periods, hormonal imbalances, burnout, mood swings, PMS, anxiety, and disconnection have become so common that many women believe they're normal.But what if they're not?In this conversation, we dive deep into the menstrual cycle, why women were never meant to feel the same every day, the impact of hormonal birth control, how modern life disconnects women from their natural rhythm, and what it means to truly work with your body instead of against it.You'll learn how hormones influence energy, emotions, relationships, intuition, confidence, attraction, and overall well-being. We also discuss what men need to understand about women, how to support a partner through different phases of her cycle, and why reconnecting to the feminine may be one of the most important health conversations of our time.This conversation is eye-opening, empowering, controversial, and deeply healing.Whether you're a woman looking to better understand your body or a man wanting to better understand the women in your life, this episode is a must-listen.

Delighting in God is not another task for your spiritual to-do list—it is a dynamic, relational response to His presence and beauty. Author, Bible teacher and Conference host Jennifer Rothschild joins Stephanie to talk about true delight as awakened by God Himself within us, rather than achieved through personal effort or performance.Jennifer has kindly written the foreword to Stephanie's new book, Awaken Delight: Satisfying your soul's longing for God (IVP, July 2026).Ready to order Stephanie's book?

It's not manufactured, but awakened by the Spirit, often through worship, community, and even suffering. The invitation is to participate in this “sing along” of relationship, responding to God's delight over us—not because we are perfect, but because we are His.Jennifer Rothschild emphasizes moving delight in God off the "to-do list" and seeing it as a response—“it's not a duty, it's a response.” Authentic delight arises from an “awareness of His presence,” not from striving to manufacture feelings or perform. Recognizing that God's nearness itself is the catalyst for delight.Examples such as listening to birdsong became moments of delight for Jennifer because she trained her mind and heart to recognize God as the giver of all beauty. This “mental paradigm and heart posture” means seeing evidence of God in everyday experiences—a child's laughter, the taste of good food, or the beauty of creation.Delight in God can only be truly awakened by God's own Spirit in us—not conjured by human effort. Stephanie explains why her new book is titled “Awaken Delight,” highlighting that Christians delight in God because God births that desire in us through the Holy Spirit.God delights to partner with us—not as servants under command, but as beloved children invited into relationship. Our small acts of trust and faith, like a grandchild's shy art offering, delight God the way a grandparent delights in a child's offering.Jesus embodies God's delight—at His baptism, before any miracles or ministry, the Father declared delight in Him simply because He was His Son. Our delight is rooted in being “in Christ,” not in achievements.Surprisingly, suffering can be the crucible that awakens delight. Jennifer unpacks Paul's words about “delighting in weakness”, explaining that it means recognizing God's good even in hardship—a perspective shift empowered by Christ.Practical Steps to Awaken Your Delight of God todayMeditate on a single verse all day to listen for God's living word in everyday reality.Attribute every beautiful or joyful experience back to God as the source.Engage worship by savoring every word as a direct offering to God.When struggling, turn “worship” into prayer—ask God to awaken the truth of the words in your hear.FIND OUT MORE ABOUT “AWAKEN DELIGHT” BY STEPHANIE ROUSSELLE“Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."

What if your body isn't broken — it's trying to tell you something?That's the question at the heart of this conversation with Inna Segal, one of the world's leading voices in energy medicine and body-mind healing. Inna's story didn't begin in a classroom or a clinic. It began in a body that was suffering — chronic back pain, psoriasis, digestive illness — and a loss so devastating it brought everything to a halt: the death of a stillborn child at age 20.What happened next changed the course of her life, and has since helped hundreds of thousands of people worldwide understand what their bodies are actually saying.In this episode, Inna and Brian explore the hidden language of physical symptoms, the way grief and trauma embed themselves in the body across generations, and what it actually looks like to heal from the inside out.Topics covered in this episode:How Inna healed chronic back pain and psoriasis through self-inquiry and emotional release — with no formal techniqueThe chiropractor who told her "your body wants to be stuck" — and why that fury became her turning pointThe angelic vision she had after losing her child, and how it shaped her spiritual pathHow she discovered she could see into other people's bodies — and the first time it was confirmedThe astral body, the etheric body, and why physical symptoms often originate somewhere else entirelyAncestral grief: how her grandmother's Holocaust survival lived in Inna's digestive system across generationsWhy grief that isn't felt gets stored — and what happens when you finally let it moveHow Inna processed the loss of her grandmother by finding her qualities in strangers across AmericaWhat makes The Secret Language of Your Body different from every other body-mind bookHer masterclasses and the Awaken the Healer Within programAbout Inna Segal:Inna Segal is a pioneer in energy medicine and human consciousness who has spent over 25 years helping people heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Send me a Text Message!Listen, I understand for some of us, parts of the Bible are hard to believe. You wonder if it's true. Some of it's even harder to understand and we run into all sorts of different interpretations of all the rules and the theology. Rules and theology which some people fight about so much, you wonder if they are even on the same team. I understand. God doesn't tweet or txt. He doesn't do facebook posts. He's old school. He  expounds and mystifies. Sometimes on purpose, I think, He's less than clear.  He shares stories that create questions and some of them are hard to read and some of them are hard to answer. He's not afraid of poetry or doubt or deep dark emotions. But I'm telling you that faith comes by hearing the Word of God. And life comes from knowing God and when we know God we love His Word. So, open the Book with an open heart and see what He might do!

As Joe Mrugalski, one of our founding members, moves from NY, he offers his final sermon with personal reflections on his time at Awaken.

Artificial Intelligence is transforming our world at an unprecedented pace, but what does this mean for spirituality, intuition, and consciousness? As machines become increasingly capable of generating information, answering questions, and even creating art, humanity is being challenged to explore a deeper question: What makes us uniquely human? In this thought-provoking episode of Meta Mystics, Cassandra Vanzant explores the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Spiritual Intelligence. Can a machine ever possess consciousness? Is intuition simply advanced pattern recognition, or is it something beyond logic and computation? Could Al eventually mimic spiritual insight, or will wisdom, compassion, and self-awareness always remain uniquely human qualities? Join us as we examine the difference between information and wisdom, the nature of intuition, the possibility of machine consciousness, and why the rise of Al may be encouraging humanity to awaken its own spiritual potential. Rather than viewing technology and spirituality as opposing forces, we explore how they may coexist and what this rapidly changing future could mean for the evolution of human consciousness.To find Cassandra—> CassandraVanZant.com & TheElitePsychics.comTo email Cassandra—> Cassandravanzant@outlook.comFor A Past Life Regression Or To Inquire About Anything Else, Email Us!—> MetaMystics@yahoo.comSubscribe to our Youtube—> http://www.youtube.com/@MetaMysticsTo Follow Us On TikTok—> https://www.tiktok.com/@metamysticsGive us a follow on Instagram—> @MetaMystics111Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/meta-mystics--5795466/support.You Don't Know What You Don't Know!

Send me a Text Message!Even if you are not sure you believe it, would you suspend your skepticism and consider the possibility that nothing's more important than hearing God's voice, letting His Words saturate our souls and if there is nothing more important than hearing his voice; no book is more important than His book, the Bible, the Word.  I know some of us need to be convinced, but honestly some of us just need to be convicted. Because while we wholeheartedly agree about the Bible's value; we open it halfheartedly. So in this episode we will ponder the questions, "Am I devoted to God's Words? Are we a people of the book?

Send me a Text Message!How many of us understand that it isn't easy being the first one to start something big? It isn't easy to be the first one to go to a new place. It isn't easy to be the first one to explore new strategies or climb to new heights or go on new journeys. It isn't easy to be the first one to pray for or live for or sacrifice for an awakening? In the history of our country we've often called those 1st-Ones, pioneers. They're the ones who left their homes with a spirit of faith; aiming toward an unknown  destination. Some of the very best chapters of our story have come when we lived with a pioneering spirit.Nehemiah 7 is a call to honor those who came before us, but it also asks us, "Do you have a pioneering spirit?"

Send me a Text Message!Nehemiah 7 contains a long, (kind of boring) list of names. But in this episode I just want to make it clear that no list of names is boring to God. Long ago, before all of the grand and awesome creation was even a gleam in Father God's eye, Paul says that God loved us and chose us. He created you in his image. He fashioned your heart with His heart as a model. At the beginning, the warrior-poet David wrote, as He formed you in your mother's womb, He dreamed dreams about your life and He looked forward to all your days. His plan for you has always been for good. Why? Because you are God's precious treasure. If you don't believe me, just listen in. 

Last week, we started a conversation about people pleasing, overgiving, and what happens when helping everyone else starts hurting you. This week, we're going deeper. Because the real issue isn't helping people. The real question is: Who are you if nobody needs you?Many of us learned that being useful was the safest way to receive love, approval, connection, or a sense of worth. We became the helper, the fixer, the caretaker, the strong one. We learned to anticipate other people's needs while often ignoring our own. But eventually, that way of living catches up with us. The exhaustion. The resentment. The feeling of being unseen. The disappointment when the people we've given so much to don't show up for us in the same way. In this episode of Cacao Conversations, we're exploring the deeper wounds beneath people pleasing and the hidden cost of building your identity around being needed. We talk about: -why helping others can feel so good -the difference between love and validation -overgiving, burnout, and resentment -why so many helpers struggle to receive support -healthy community versus rescuing -what happens when your worth becomes tied to your usefulness -how to begin reconnecting with your value beyond what you do for others Because being needed is not the same as being loved. And your worth was never meant to depend on how much of yourself you give away. New episodes of Cacao Conversations drop weekly. Sip.

A SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM STEPHANIE:I want to share a special invitation with you. You may have heard that I will be releasing my first book with IVP on July 28, 2026. It's a big deal and I am so overwhelmed with God' goodness in allowing me to share such an essential message about delighting in Him as the true essential foundation for all our spiritual growth and maturing. Truly, when we delight in the Lord, He promises to give us the desires of our hearts – namely, more of Himself!So, here's the invitation. If you feel this message is indeed important, and you know people – including yourself perhaps – who need to be encouraged to awaken and cultivate their delight in God, would you consider joining my book launch team? It's a great and super easy way to share the good news of God's love for us in Christ, Jesus, our Lord.**If you're interested, please go to gospelspice.com/awakendelight and find the section about joining the launch team, or email me at contact@gospelspice.com **Together, let's encourage everyone we know with the wonderful news that, in Christ, God delights in us and invites us to delight in Him!In this brand-new series centered around Stephanie's new book, we explore several ways that we lose and can recover our delight in God, rooted in His delight of us. Today, in this first episode in our series, Stephanie explores spiritual fatigue in faithful believers and guides us toward God's invitation to restoration, not just endurance.What if you've lost your delight in God? Or you've never really experienced it in the first place? What if a season of suffering has snuffed out your joy, leaving you spiritually discouraged and emotionally numb? Delighting in God changes everything: how you experience your faith, relationships, and circumstances―and even how you see yourself. You can experience Psalm 37:4 as your daily reality: "Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."If you're spiritually weary, your fatigue does not prove you're far from God. You're invited to rest in the truth that delight begins by receiving God's delight over you. Come honestly, bring your tired self, and let God awaken delight in your soul again. Your greatest need is not more pressure, but more permission to rest and be restored as His beloved.Many mature Christians find themselves exhausted, faithfully serving God while inwardly feeling emotionally distant. Obedience becomes duty, prayer is reduced to quick requests or guilty silence, and Scripture feels like data instead of bread. Outwardly, they are strong—teaching, leading, serving—yet inside, numbness, irritability, and spiritual dehydration prevail.Our FREE gift to you today! An exclusive 30-day FREE recovery plan to rekindle your delight in God when you are feeling weary and exhausted in your faith: go to https://www.gospelspice.com/awakendelightthepodcast and find the form for Episode 446. Give us your email, and you will receive the full plan in your inbox immediately!Key Symptoms | When Weariness Overtakes Christians—Rediscovering Delight as God's BelovedDuty without delight;Spiritual dryness, despite regular disciplines;Resentment towards expectations and responsibilities;Prayers and scripture reading that feel obligatory, not life-giving.Spiritual depletion rarely stems from bad theology or outright rebellion. Instead, it often results from:Years of faithful overextension;Ignored grief or disappointment;Trying to do more and more to compensate for the sense of lost delight;Living off “old oil”—past experiences with God, not present intimacy;Feeling that delight and intimacy with God are for someone else, perhaps just for earlier seasons.Weariness emerges when we serve God from muscle memory, not fresh encounter, or confuse emotional invulnerability with spiritual maturity.The temptation is to force spiritual disciplines, tightening up routines, and demanding more from ourselves. But a weary Christian doesn't lack discipline. Oftentimes, we lack receptivity. More striving usually deepens the exhaustion and guilt, rather than reviving joy.Instead of seeking restoration, weary believers mistakenly try to manufacture delight by moral strain or performance, but delight is not manufactured by moral strain.The path back is not correction but replenishment. Stephanie urges us to “come nearer, slower, truer,” rather than to “try harder”. Restoration means:Honest lament and silence before God;Allowing ourselves to be ministered to;Sabbath, rest, and simplicity in spiritual practice;Confessing not just sin, but exhaustion, disappointment, and overextension;Even our ache for God is proof that love is alive in us, not that faith has died. Jesus doesn't just forgive; He invites the weary to come to Him for rest.Ultimately, our delight in God is rooted in His delight in us. Before time began, God chose to love and delight in His people, even at great cost to Himself through the cross. Our identity is found not in our ministry, productivity, or others' approval, but in God's unwavering, delighted gaze."Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4 isn't a poetic suggestion — it's a promise. But many believers quietly assume it doesn't really work, or it's not really possible here on earth.In Awaken Delight, Stephanie Rousselle invites you to rediscover what Scripture actually means by delight — not emotional hype, not religious performance, but a steady satisfaction rooted in who God is.Delight in God isn't a mood to manufacture; it's a relationship to receive.Through biblical theology and practical rhythms, you'll learn how communion with God reshapes suffering, quiets restless striving, and anchors your identity in something unshakable.Delighting in God isn't sentimental optimism. It's deeply rooted in Christ, Jesus.It's the quiet revolution that reshapes how we endure pain, love others, and understand our own heart.Awaken Delight is a theologically grounded spiritual formation book for thoughtful believers who feel spiritually fatigued and are ready to embrace the reality of Psalm 37:4.More at https://www.gospelspice.com/awakendelight Purchase the book, "Awaken Delight" by Stephanie Rousselle: https://a.co/d/0bqhUb5JKind words from Jennifer Rothschild, Bible teacher, Author, Speaker, Podcast Host, Founder, Fresh Grounded Faith:“Stephanie helps us awaken to and experience true delight. It is a rich mix of God's delight in you and your delight in him. This is the life you were made for, the life your soul deeply longs for. So, the table is set. Pull up a chair and let your heart sit alongside Stephanie. As your delight in God wakes up and becomes fully realized, you'll find a satisfaction in Christ that makes you want more and more.”Kind words from Amanda Jenkins, Lead creator of THE CHOSEN's literary content"I have yet to meet another person quite as eager to intimately know Jesus as Stephanie is. Her enthusiasm for the beauty found inside a thriving relationship with her Savior is downright contagious. Indeed, Stephanie's joy and faith and commitment to growth—along with her love for really good food!—will implant themselves in the hearts of readers. Lucky readers."Kind words from Os Guinness, Theologian, Social critic, Author, The Call "Stephanie addresses one of the greatest needs of Christians today. Knowing God is not knowing about God, but knowing Him genuinely and with desire and delight. She does so practically and helpfully, and in a style that sparkles with a verve and joy that is distinctively French."Kind words from Pippa Gumbel, Pioneer, The Alpha Course; Author, The Bible in one year with husband Nicky"Stephanie's love of God is inspiring and infectious. Her book is an invitation to share in that delight and to come to know God in new and wonderful ways." More at https://www.gospelspice.com/awakendelight Purchase the book, "Awaken Delight" by Stephanie Rousselle: https://a.co/d/0bqhUb5JSupport us on Gospel Spice, PayPal and Venmo!

Send me a Text Message!This episode is going to hit on a few of my favorite themes, calling, travailing prayer, revival, finishing well, and God's desire to do a new thing. You know I have found over and over again, that it's difficult, to finish well, if we aren't willing to lean into new things. And it's almost impossible to lean into new things, without being done with the old things. So my question is, "Are we done with the old things?" As a church are we done with the old things? I long to see the church shine bright like a city on a hill. I long for us to be known as the hands and heart of Christ. I still believe that the church that Jesus is building is the hope of the world. I want to be part of that church and I'm praying for that church to be done with old things. Do you know what the Bible calls being done with old things? It's called repentance. That's where we will end this episode, with a call to repentance. 

In this episode of Awaken with Oliver, Oliver sits down with Kenya K. Stevens – self‑proclaimed best love coach on the planet, love shaman, and divorce stopper – to radically rethink what marriage, relationships, and commitment really mean. Kenya shares her five foundational principles for a thriving partnership and explains why ownership, shame, and blame have no place in modern love.Topics Discussed:The five base principles of a strong marriage: no shame and blame, no victims or villains, no cop‑outs or dropouts, purpose is growth (benefit is love), and “I create my life”Why open marriage won't make you happy – but ownership‑based monogamy won't eitherThe three parts of the self: animal (feelings), ego (storyteller), higher self (solution‑finder)How to stop shaming and blaming your partner by recognising you're looking at a reflection of yourselfEpisode Highlights:[00:00:03] – Kenya K. Stevens introduces herself: “I'm the best love coach on the planet. I stop divorces.”[00:00:14] – How she stops divorces: changing the underpinnings of marriage – no more ownership of another human[00:00:31] – Why an open marriage will not make anyone happy (and what actually works)[00:01:52] – The five principles of Kenya's own marriage: no shame, no blame, no victims, no villains, no cop‑outs, no dropouts[00:02:55] – Oliver's observation: 30‑year‑olds getting married, having kids, and becoming unhappy – they don't even like each other anymore[00:05:18] – The “up‑level” system: every challenge in your relationship is a reflection of yourself[00:07:45] – Breaking down the animal, ego, and higher self[00:09:30] – Can a submissive man become dominant again after years of being the “little bitch”?[00:11:14] – The alpha woman who wants her man to lead but can't stop leading herself – can she truly submit?[00:12:32] – The pattern: a submissive husband often had a dominant mother[00:13:04] – Polyamory and jealousy: why higher self solves jealousy, but ego never will[00:14:25] – Humans are hardwired for community[00:15:34] – The third option beyond animal urge and intellectual control: higher self[00:16:22] – “It takes a village” – and why one person can never give you everything you need[00:17:06] – When kids are involved: community becomes even more necessary, not less[00:18:20] – 40‑60% marriage failure rate for 80 years[00:20:15] – Oliver's personal journey: polyamory or just searching for one real connection?[00:22:53] – Kenya's final message if she had one day left to live: “I've been here since the beginning of time. Death is not real. Live as if you are infinite.”[00:23:18] – Kenya's advice to Oliver: “Take my course.

What if the biggest thing blocking you from love, abundance, and happiness isn't what happened to you... but the identity you've built around it? In this powerful Porch Conversation with CJ, we explore childhood programming, love blocks, manifestation, quantum entanglement, self-worth, trauma, and why some people remain trapped in cycles of pain while others completely transform their lives. CJ shares profound insights about how childhood experiences shape adult relationships, why healing love blocks impacts every area of life, and how becoming the person you want to be is more important than simply trying to attract what you want. One of the most powerful moments: "They hide in the pain so they can have an excuse to complain, but they don't actually get better." If you've ever wondered why you keep repeating relationship patterns, struggle to receive love, or feel stuck despite your success, this conversation offers a powerful perspective on what's really happening beneath the surface. In this episode, CJ and Shay discuss childhood conditioning, quantum manifestation, abundance, self-acceptance, emotional healing, and the mindset shifts required to create lasting transformation. — Shay Founder, Bonding Biology Institute™

This is embodied intuition guided meditation chakra practice. Your body is the instrument, and this journey is how you learn to play it. Each center gets a physical anchor, a moment of activation, and space for what arises to simply be received without analysis or doubt. By the time you reach the crown, you will have touched every layer of your psychic landscape and begun to understand which gifts are already speaking loudly and which ones are simply waiting to be heard. Every chakra in your body is home to psychic senses you were born with, and most people spend their lives looking for those gifts everywhere except inside themselves. This guided journey moves through all seven of your energy centers, waking up each clair from the inside out, so you can feel, know, see, and hear What has been available to you all along? Are you ready to stop searching and start remembering?This episode is part of Ecstatic Empath. Where being an empath shifts from painful to pleasurable.

In honor of IOTL's 10th birthday, today Nora is reading the two chapters out loud and live annotating – connecting with the person she was six months after her husband's and father's death, miscarrying a baby, and desperately trying to stay afloat.

Burnout seems like the biggest thing all of us have in common right now. It's hard NOT to get burnt out when the world is rife with injustice and horror and you're expected to carry on as normal. Here's the thing: you don't have to carry on as normal. But you do have to reach out and find joy – it's going to keep you alive. It's going to keep you going. It's going to remind you that you won't always feel like this. On today's episode, Nora talks to Elizabeth Kott, who inspired her to pick up The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron and “get unstuck.” Elizabeth is a founder of Club Artist's Way, where she leads people through a 13-week program to rekindle their creative spark, and host of the Too Niche podcast, where Nora first heard about The Artist's Way.
