Have you ever asked someone, “Do you trust me?” It's a question that we've all asked at least once in our lives. But what if God asked you that same questions?  In “Do You Trust Me,” Shana Hilton shares that we often struggle to trust God because of fear, lack of time spent with Him, or the belief that our way is better. But true peace and direction come when we surrender control, immerse ourselves in His Word, and acknowledge that God's ways are higher. Everyone helping someone take steps to follow Christ.

A letter can change everything. For Amy Nielsen, it was a two-page note to her college-aged daughter explaining why curfews mattered—a window into Nielsen's tumultuous past as a homeless teen in 1980s Florida. That letter became the seed for "Worth It," her award-winning young adult novel about finding courage when everything around you is falling apart.Her novel, which recently earned the Florida State Book Award's bronze medal, transforms her five-year struggle through homelessness and teenage pregnancy into a powerful fictional narrative set against the economic devastation of Central Florida's citrus freezes.The result is a book that speaks directly to teens in crisis while offering guidance to friends and adults who want to help.Nielsen's work extends to autism advocacy  As the mother of an autistic son, she challenges harmful labels and misconceptions, emphasizing that non-speaking doesn't mean low-functioning and that autism may simply be "a normal part of the human genome."The audiobook of "Worth It," narrated by Shealey Hannigan, recently named a finalist for Best Audiobook of 2024 by Indie Inc.photos; courtesy of a.nielsenSend Papamutes a Text“THE OPINIONS EXPRESSED OR VIEWS EXPRESSED BY GUESTS DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT OR REPRESENT THOSE OF THE HOST; Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Castro, Google Podcasts or wherever you stream your podcasts.

Have you ever read a story in the Bible and said to yourself, ‘Jesus Did What?' Well, that's exactly what this new message series is talking about! Join us as we walk through the miracles Jesus did that made the people around Him ask, “Did Jesus just do that?" In "Jesus Did What in the Water?", Pastor James teaches us that we see that Jesus didn't just step into the water to be baptized—He came to take away our sin and give us new life through His Spirit. John the Baptist points to Jesus as the Lamb of God and God's Chosen One. Baptism is our response, an outward sign of the inward transformation Jesus makes possible. Everyone helping someone take steps to follow Christ. This is the vision of Journey Church, led by Pastor James Hilton, with multiple locations throughout Central Florida. https://journeyconnect.org Website: https://journeyconnect.org Facebook: http://facebook.com/journeyconnect Instagram: https://instagram.com/journeyconnect/ To support Journey Church's mission and help us transform lives both locally and globally, visit: https://journeyconnect.org/giving
