Today’s Bible Verse: “Jesus said, ‘My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.’” — John 18:36 John 18:36 records Jesus’ response to Pilate during His trial. While standing before earthly authority, Jesus makes a profound statement about the nature of His kingdom. His rule is not built on political power, force, or human systems—it comes from a different source entirely. “Want to listen without ads?

Fear usually starts small but it grows. Our fears get bigger and more powerful, even stronger than our rational minds. We can tell ourselves, (or other people tell us), that our fears are irrational or illogical, but that doesn't seem to do any good. Fear knocks reason and logic aside like a snowplow through slush. Jesus says, “Fear not…have courage…don't worry…take heart” 21 times in the Gospels. He takes our fears seriously. Jesus knows how fear can poison the human heart and paralyze our daily lives and we cannot get out that rut by ourselves. Find out more in this episode of Gospel Wabi Sabi.
Today's episode is a very honest conversation about how I used plant medicine to decondition my wealth codes — and what that actually means. I'm going to walk you through how I went from intellectually understanding abundance… to realizing I was still operating from fear around money, visibility, and survival. I'll share: The moment I realized I was looping in subconscious scarcity. My first experience with 5-MeO-DMT and what it revealed about money being an illusion of power. How I built a 9-month relationship with psilocybin — not as an escape, but as a discipline. Why integration is 90% of the work. How cleaning up my body, boundaries, and habits came before the money shifted. And how this entire journey led to the birth of the PAIED Method and a deeper embodiment of my sovereignty. This is not an episode advocating for or against plant medicine. It's a conversation about: Responsibility. Integration. Faith. And the difference between chasing altered states and actually transforming your life. If you've ever felt spiritually aware but financially capped… If you've ever believed in abundance but still felt stuck… Or if you're curious about psychedelics and want to hear a grounded, long-term perspective… This episode will give you a very real look at what this journey actually required of me.

In today's episode, I sit down with Tre Boston, former NFL safety and current TV host, to talk about faith, frequency, and the mindset that sustains greatness. From his “welcome to the NFL” lowlight against Russell Wilson to the lessons learned through public mistakes, Tre shares how belief, short memory, and gratitude shape resilience. We discuss forgiveness, life after football, and why opposition often attacks your greatest gifts. Tre opens up about the power of prayer and fasting, how a seven-day fast transformed his habits, and why true authority comes from knowing you are loved, redeemed, and aligned with something bigger than yourself.
What do you do when life takes a devastating turn and God doesn't seem to be helping you? In today’s episode of Faith Over Fear, Jennifer Slattery sits down with retired Air Force brigadier general, chaplain, pastor, and author Bob Page to talk about trusting God in seasons of hardship and uncertainty. Bob shares the powerful story of a life-threatening accident that left him in intensive care while his young family faced an uncertain future. To outside observers, it might have looked as if God had abandoned them. But as Bob reflects on that season, he now sees unmistakable evidence of God’s presence and provision—from a nurse who comforted his injured daughter to unexpected financial provision that sustained his family. Through decades of ministry and personal experience, Bob has learned a profound truth: even when we cannot see or understand God’s ways, we can trust His heart. In this conversation, Jennifer and Bob discuss: Why hardship does not mean God has abandoned us How to speak honestly with God about fear, anger, and confusion The importance of remembering God’s faithfulness in the past How God uses painful seasons to shape our purpose Practical steps to help retrain our minds to see God’s presence Drawing from Scripture, personal stories, and insights from Bob’s book God Is Still for You: 10 Reasons You Can Be Sure When Life Is Hard, this episode offers encouragement for anyone walking through difficult circumstances and uncertainty. Key Scripture Mentioned Psalm 121:1–2 “I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.” Proverbs 3:5–6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding…” Psalm 9:10 “Those who know your name trust in you…” Lamentations 3:21–23 “Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed…” In This Episode You'll Learn: Why feeling abandoned by God is a common experience during hardship How honest prayer can deepen your relationship with God Why remembering God’s faithfulness strengthens faith How God often prepares us through experiences that seem like detours Practical ways to speak truth to fear Resource referenced: God Is Still For You: Ten Reasons You Can Be Sure Even When Life Is Hard by Bob Page Additional (free) resource you might find helpful: When Fear Strikes: a 7-Day Reset for Anxious Hearts Discussion/Reflective Questions: Have you ever experienced a season when circumstances made you feel as if God had abandoned you? What emotions surfaced during that time? Looking back, can you identify ways God may have been present in that situation—even if you didn’t recognize it at the time? Bob talked about the importance of remembering God’s past faithfulness.What are two or three moments in your life when you clearly saw God provide or guide you? When fear or uncertainty rises, what truths from Scripture help anchor your heart? Bob encouraged listeners to speak honestly with God about their emotions.What might it look like for you to bring your fears or frustrations openly before Him? Is there a situation in your life right now where you’re struggling to trust God’s purposes? How might your perspective shift if you asked God to help you see that situation through the eyes of faith?

Have you ever noticed how many different kinds of fear people have? Some fears are almost funny. There's Arachnophobia —the fear of spiders. Some people can see a tiny spider across the room and suddenly they're standing on a chair yelling for help. There's Acrophobia —the fear of heights. For some people,…
According to Proverbs 15:15 (AMPC): 'All the days of the desponding and afflicted are made evil [by anxious thoughts and forebodings], but he who has a glad heart has a continual feast [regardless of circumstances].'This week we focus on guarding our hearts and minds, so that what we think, believe and ponder on remains fixed on that which lines up with the very Word of the Living God Almighty. Else we permit evil circumstances to come against us each day, regardless of our knowledge or ignorance of these principles. Worse, we question or even blame our Heavenly Father on how he could have allowed us to have such a bad day!This program covers the following Scriptures from the Amplified Classic version (AMPC): Psalm 119:89; Isaiah 40:8; Hebrews 13:8; Proverbs 15:15; Psalm 118:24; Isaiah 1:18; Revelation 3:20; Colossians 1:13; 2 Timothy 5:16; Psalm 138:22; Peter 3:9; Matthew 7:13-14; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 2 Corinthians 4:4.Support the showClick Here to Send Us Your Prayer Request.
Today’s Bible Verse: “As they sailed, he fell asleep. A squall came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.” — Luke 8:23 (NIV) Luke 8:23 captures a moment when the disciples faced a sudden storm while Jesus slept in the boat. Waves crashed, fear rose, and the situation felt dangerously out of control. Yet the very presence of Jesus in the boat meant they were never truly alone. “Want to listen without ads?

Send a textIn this insightful episode of Navigating the Customer Experience, we welcome Victoria Mensch, Founder & CEO of the Silicon Valley Executive Academy, for a powerful conversation on leadership, innovation, and thriving in the age of AI.With a PhD in Psychology, an MBA from UC Berkeley, and more than 25 years in Silicon Valley, Victoria has built her career at the intersection of human behavior, executive performance, and technological transformation. Arriving in Silicon Valley during the dot-com boom, she was inspired by its bold, world-changing mindset. That culture of innovation shaped her journey from working across semiconductor and software companies to launching her own executive academy, where she helps global leaders apply Silicon Valley's innovation principles within their own organizations.A central theme of the episode is how leadership must evolve in today's fast-changing 2026 environment. Victoria emphasizes that leadership isn't limited to job titles—it exists at every level. She outlines three essential qualities leaders must cultivate:Self-Responsibility & Agency – Great leaders take ownership of their choices and focus on what they can control, even amid disruption.Curiosity – With technological, political, and economic shifts happening constantly, leaders must stay open, adaptable, and willing to explore new perspectives.Continuous Learning – In the age of AI, growth is non-negotiable. Leaders must embrace learning, develop new skills, and view change as an opportunity rather than a threat.One of the most powerful discussions centers on reframing failure. Victoria explains that fear of failure is often driven by imagined future scenarios. The key practice is returning to the present moment and rationally assessing reality. She also offers a mindset shift: the probability of success is equal to the probability of failure—yet we tend to focus only on what could go wrong. By consciously balancing those possibilities, leaders can make decisions rooted in clarity instead of fear.When asked for one word leaders should adopt for 2026, Victoria chooses humanity. As organizations increasingly integrate artificial intelligence, she believes leaders must keep the human element at the forefront. Technology should create space for deeper creativity and stronger connections—not replace them. The goal isn't simply to be faster or more efficient, but to be better in how we serve and relate to others.Victoria also shares her excitement about AI-driven automation and tools that eliminate time-draining tasks, freeing leaders to focus on high-value work. She recommends exploring Lovable, a platform that allows users to build applications and landing pages without coding skills. A book that influenced her thinking is Digital Darwinism: Surviving the New Age of Business Disruption by Tom Goodwin, which examines how companies navigate digital transformation.Her personal guiding quote? “Faith over fear.”This episode delivers practical leadership insights for executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals ready to embrace change, lead with intention, and remain human in a rapidly evolving digital world.Connect with Victoria at www.svexecutive.academy and join the conversation on X @navigatingcx or in the Navigating the Customer Experience community.

Today’s Bible Verse: “He struck the rock, and water gushed out, streams flowed abundantly, but can he also give us bread? Can he supply meat for his people?” — Psalm 78:20 Psalm 78:20 captures a moment of mixed faith. God had already provided water from a rock, yet the people still questioned whether He could meet their next need. This verse reflects how easy it is to forget past faithfulness when facing new challenges. “Want to listen without ads?

Pessimism is one of the quietest threats to a growing faith—because it often sounds like wisdom. We rename it “discernment,” “caution,” or “being realistic,” but Scripture exposes what it truly is: a lack of faith in God's power or His promises.In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef takes you to Mark 9, where a desperate father says to Jesus, “If you can…”—revealing the real issue wasn't Jesus' ability, but the father's unbelief. Christ's reply still challenges us today: faith changes what we believe is possible.Dr. Youssef also points to Thomas, famously labeled “doubting Thomas,” to show that pessimism doesn't have to be permanent. Jesus overcame Thomas' unbelief by anchoring him in a life-altering truth: you are chosen, called, and unconditionally loved by God's grace.If you've been battling negativity, doubt, or a constant expectation of the worst, this devotional will help you:identify pessimism for what it is,bring your unbelief honestly to Jesus, andrest in the security of God's steadfast love and calling.Scripture Focus: 1 John 3:1 The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

Do you lie awake replaying conversations… wishing you’d said no instead of yes?Do you feel responsible for everyone else’s happiness and so bogged down by other's expectations that you've lost your sense of self? Are your relationships filled with more takers than givers? Do friendships tend to bring you more anxiety than joy? If so, Jennifer Slattery's conversation with author and podcast host Jennifer Renee Watson will encourage you. In this episode of Faith Over Fear, Jennifer Slattery sits down with author and speaker Jennifer Renee Watson to unpack the emotional roots of people-pleasing, codependency, and the deep fear of not being “enough” or "doing enough." Together, they explore how trauma, anxiety, and unhealthy relationship patterns can shape our identity—and how God leads us toward healing, clarity, and freedom. Jennifer Watson shares her personal story of growing up in instability, navigating ministry pressures, and learning—one fumbling step at a time—how to set boundaries, recognize harmful patterns, and rediscover her voice. This conversation offers practical encouragement for anyone struggling with approval-seeking, emotional exhaustion, relational confusion, or the pressure to always keep others happy. You’ll learn why people-pleasing often grows from survival patterns, how resentment can signal deeper wounds, and why healing takes time, support, and truth. Most importantly, you’ll be reminded that your worth isn’t defined by others’ approval—but by God’s steady love and presence. This episode is for you if you: Struggle to say no without guilt Feel drained by relationships or expectations Carry anxiety about disappointing others Want healthier boundaries rooted in faith Long to rediscover your identity and confidence in Christ Resource referenced: What If You're Doing Better Than You Think?: Finding Courage and Confidence When Life Gets Messy Key truth to hold onto: [God] is your constant source of stability; he abundantly provides safety and great wisdom (Isaiah 33:6, NET) Next step: Pay attention to your yeses and nos this week. Notice what drives them—and invite God into the healing process. Discussion/Reflective Questions: When do you feel the strongest pressure to please others—and what fears tend to drive that response? How has your past (family, church, relationships, or trauma) shaped your current boundaries or lack of them? What lies about your identity or worth have fueled anxiety or people-pleasing in your life? Where might resentment or emotional exhaustion be signaling a need for healthier limits? What would it look like to anchor your sense of safety and worth in God rather than others’ approval? What is one small, practical step you can take this week to honor your emotional and spiritual health (a boundary, a conversation, a pause before saying yes)? Who are the safe people in your life that can support your healing and growth? What is one action step God might be inviting you to take having listened to this episode?

This episode centers on a powerful, foundational question: what truly anchors our faith when the world feels uncertain and unsettled?Josh and Caitlin reflect on recent conversations with close friends and family members who asked where their testimony and hope come from. The hosts share openly that the core of real endurance is not built on perfect circumstances, successful businesses, or even constant answers from God. Instead, it grows from knowing one eternal truth: we are sons and daughters of Heavenly Parents.This episode is sincere, hopeful, and practical. It reminds listeners that while life may feel heavier each year, the love of God never changes. He is patient with us, involved in our lives, and invites us to keep pressing forward—faithfully and imperfectly.Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/enduretotheendpod/Zunex Pest Control: https://www.instagram.com/zunexpestco/00:03 – Podcast welcome and introduction00:34 – Where Josh's faith stems from01:06 – The hinge point of testimony01:20 – How faith gets us through hard times02:13 – Recognizing a relationship with God03:23 – Alignment with Jesus Christ brings clarity04:09 – Grace versus perfectionism04:53 – God's nature never changes05:28 – Identity as children of God06:12 – Strained earthly relationships07:41 – Sharing personal stories08:10 – High school infatuation example10:16 – Idealizing people beyond reality11:05 – Josh's mission turning point12:26 – Learning to trust God personally13:14 – Ether 12:27 and weakness15:28 – Scripture: Rich young ruler17:04 – Giving God our whole heart18:30 – Faith forged in painful moments19:24 – Over-idealization and identity21:24 – Gratitude for God leading us22:15 – Healing through boundaries27:01 – Meekness explained30:12 – Responsibility to be good to others33:20 – Teaching children correctly34:39 – True definition of meekness36:29 – Scripture: Romans 8:16-1738:36 – God's love for all people41:03 – Think Celestial segment44:41 – Final testimony45:53 – Closing encouragement

Democracy is an ongoing experiment, constantly tested by shifts in power, societal challenges, and the choices we make to protect (or erode) progress. It's not about ensuring nothing changes when you leave, it's about ensuring that what truly matters can endure when everything does.

God is unable to establish if we don't surrender. If your hands are closed and someone is trying to give you a gift, it's going to be really hard to receive that gift if you don't first open your hands. That's literally the nature of faith.

We talk about his journey from growing up on the South Side of Chicago to working in the NFL and serving in the White House, but more importantly about how faith is formed through practice, resilience, and trust in uncertain seasons.

Today’s Bible Verse: “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18 Psalm 34:18 offers tender reassurance for seasons of pain. God is not distant from sorrow—He draws near to those whose hearts feel shattered. When emotions are heavy and strength feels thin, His presence moves closer, not farther away. “Want to listen without ads?

If you’ve prayed for peace but still feel anxious, overwhelmed, or discouraged, you’re not alone—and you’re not failing spiritually. In this episode of Faith Over Fear, Jennifer Slattery is joined by Jamie Hampton, co-host of the Praying Christian Women podcast, for a compassionate and honest conversation about anxiety, prayer, and God’s peace. Jamie shares a season of debilitating anxiety and what that taught her. Together, she and Jennifer explore what Scripture—especially Philippians 4—really teaches about anxiety, why peace is often a process rather than an instant fix, and how God meets us in our physical, emotional, and spiritual realities. This conversation is for anyone who loves God but feels confused, exhausted, or ashamed by persistent anxiety—and longs for a gentler, grace-filled way forward. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why anxiety is rarely just spiritual—and why that matters What Philippians 4 does not mean about “being anxious” How praise and prayer can calm both the heart and nervous system Why honest, unfiltered prayer leads to deeper freedom Practical ways to interrupt anxious spirals with compassion How God’s peace grows through presence, not pressure Scriptures Referenced: Philippians 4:4–9 1 Peter 5:7 Download this episode's free companion guide HERE. Resource Referenced: She Prays Like a Girl: Discover the Joy and Power of Praying Like You (and no one else!) Featured Guest: Jamie Hampton, Christian author and co-host of the Praying Christian Women podcast, shares vulnerably from her own journey through anxiety and healing. Encouragement for Listeners: If prayer hasn’t taken your anxiety away, that doesn’t mean God is distant or disappointed or that your prayer practice isn't helping. God gradually cultivates peace in your soul as you walk with Him. Reflective Questions: When anxiety rises, what assumptions do I tend to make about myself or my faith? Are there physical, emotional, or situational factors contributing to my anxiety that I may have overlooked? What does it feel like to hear that God’s peace is often a process rather than an instant result? When prayer feels difficult, what gentle ways might help me orient my heart toward God? Are there fears or questions I’ve been hesitant to bring honestly to God? What might it look like to release those to Him?

Choosing faith over fear isn't easy.Choosing peace over worry doesn't happen automatically.Fear and anxiety still come, but we get to choose how we respond.This week, instead of focusing on all of the “what ifs,” we're choosing prayer and praise.Instead of focusing on what could go wrong, we're choosing gratitude.Instead of worrying we're going to worship the God who holds all of creation in the palm of His mighty hands.Instead of carrying it all alone, we're placing it in God's hands.When we turn toward Him, with thanksgiving, He says His peace will guard our hearts and our minds in Christ.If you're walking into this week feeling fearful, anxious and overwhelmed, you're not alone.God sees you.He goes before you.And He is able to do immeasurably more than all you can imagine.

""The giants today are my testimony tomorrow!""Pastor Wayne breaks down how fear kept Israel from their promise, but faith opens doors to victory.
Today’s Bible Verse: “For even his own brothers did not believe in him.” — John 7:5 (NIV) John 7:5 is a sobering reminder that even Jesus experienced misunderstanding and unbelief from those closest to Him. His own family struggled to see who He truly was. This verse shows that rejection or doubt from others does not mean God’s purpose has failed. “Want to listen without ads?

In a time when many believers are tempted to retreat in fear or compromise in pressure, Scripture calls the Church to a higher posture: faith-filled engagement with the world around us. In this teaching from the Leadership Table, Joseph Mattera unpacks how the Church is called not to mirror culture, but to shape it through spiritual authority, biblical conviction, and courageous leadership. Moving from fear to faith requires more than bold language. It requires clarity of mission, maturity of character, and confidence in God's purposes. This episode explores how leaders and believers can resist intimidation, reject passivity, and walk in faith that influences families, cities, and institutions. The Church was never meant to hide from culture, but to disciple it through truth, love, and spiritual power. If you are a leader, pastor, or believer who desires to see lasting transformation rather than temporary reactions, this message will challenge you to move beyond fear and step fully into your God-given calling.
Do you lie awake at night worried about money?If financial stress has left you feeling anxious, ashamed, or trapped, this episode will encourage you and help alleviate some of your fear. In today’s Faith Over Fear conversation, host Jennifer Slattery sits down with Todd Moore, Director of Education at Trinity Debt Management, to talk honestly about financial fear, scarcity mindsets, and the emotional weight money struggles carry—especially in today’s economy. Todd shares his powerful story of growing up with scarcity, accumulating debt as a first-generation college student, and eventually discovering that financial hardship doesn’t define your future. Together, Jennifer and Todd explore why money anxiety impacts our sense of safety, how past trauma can intensify present fear, and why struggling financially is far more common—and far less shameful—than many realize. You’ll also hear practical, grace-filled encouragement for anyone who feels overwhelmed or stuck, including: Why financial hardship doesn’t mean you’ve failed How fear affects the brain—and why support matters Small, doable steps you can take right now to regain clarity How God’s compassion meets us in seasons of financial uncertainty Why asking for help can be the turning point toward freedom If you’re facing job loss, debt, rising expenses, or lingering fear rooted in past instability, this episode offers both biblical reassurance and practical hope.

Good sounding religious axioms arise from time to time and become the rage for many. But how many actually live by these good sounding sayings. One of the recent often repeated religious themes is “Faith Over fear.” It's everywhere: books, internet sermons, video shorts, and articles repeat this mantra directly or with slight variations. Whole clothing lines are lettered with it. You see plaques, trinkets, and crosses displaying these three words. Yes, “Faith Over Fear” is everywhere, especially since the pandemic, but are people living what they proclaim.
“When You’re Not Out of Control—Just Tired of Surviving” In this episode of Faith Over Fear, Carol sits down with Christy Osborne, author of Love Life Sober, for an honest, compassionate conversation about exhaustion, emotional numbness, and the quiet ways many women cope just to get through the day. This isn’t a conversation about hitting rock bottom or losing control. It’s about the woman who looks “fine” on the outside—but feels tired, flat, and disconnected from joy on the inside. Christy shares her personal journey through an alcohol fast—not as a self-improvement project, but as a brave act of curiosity and care. (Download the free companion guide for this episode here.) Together, Carol and Christy explore: Why alcohol (or other numbing habits) often function as a solution, not the real problem What surfaces emotionally and spiritually when numbing is removed How grief, fatigue, and long-buried feelings often point to unmet needs—not personal failure The lies that grow louder in silence—and how awareness and Scripture can interrupt them with grace Where Jesus meets us most clearly when we feel exposed, weary, and emotionally honest How joy can return—not as escape, but as presence, embodiment, and safety If you’ve ever thought, “I’m not out of control—I’m just so tired,” this episode is for you. Resource referenced: Love Life Sober: A 40-Day Alcohol Fast to Rediscover Your Joy, Improve Your Health, and Renew Your Mind Listener Reflective Questions Where in my life have I been using something—even something socially acceptable—to soften, numb, or survive instead of truly rest? If I’m honest, what emotions do I work hardest to avoid feeling—and why might those emotions feel unsafe to me? Have I been interpreting my exhaustion as failure, when it may actually be information about my soul’s needs? What lies get loud for me when life slows down or distractions are removed—and how do those lies shape my sense of identity? How has my definition of joy been shaped by escape rather than presence—and what quieter forms of joy might God be inviting me to notice? What would it look like to believe I can feel deeply and be safe with God—right here, not after I “fix” myself?

Today’s Bible Verse: “When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven.” — Nehemiah 1:4 Nehemiah 1:4 shows us the power of a heart that responds to brokenness with prayer. Before Nehemiah took action, he took time to grieve, fast, and seek God. His leadership began not with strategy, but with surrender. “Want to listen without ads?

LET'S GO!! This week's episode of the IMPACT SHOW Podcast is a powerful reminder that fear may show up many times in one's life--but faith always gets the final word. Episode 461 features one of the most courageous, faith-filled young leaders I know and I could not be more honored to bring you this conversation with Riley Tejcek. Riley was actually one of my guest speakers at my Annual Mountain Retreat in Whitefish, MT, in November and she blew the doors off the 110- people in the room with a jaw-dropping "Faith over Fear" talk. And today, you are going to get the opportunity to tune into part of her keynote. Before we dive in, let me properly introduce Riley Tejcek. Riley is a U.S. Marine Corps Captain, former Division I softball player, Female Fitness Marine of the Year, and a U.S. National Team bobsled athlete who competed at the highest level in the world--often on tracks where one mistake could cost you everything. Riley has served our country with honor, represented Team USA on the global stage, and self-funded her Olympic pursuit through sheer grit, faith, and obedience to God's calling. Riley is also a children's book author, an in-demand speaker, and currently traveling the country recruiting and mentoring young leaders — especially women--to step into service, leadership, and God-sized purpose. And while the accolades are impressive, what makes Riley truly special is her willingness to talk openly about fear, failure, heartbreak, and the deep faith that carried her through it all. This episode is raw. It's real. And it's exactly what so many people (of ALL ages) need right now. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR in this "FAITH OVER FEAR" episode: • Faith Doesn't Eliminate Fear — It Overcomes It: Riley shares why fear is real, unavoidable, and loud — but faith is stronger when you choose to trust God anyway. • Calling Out Fear Breaks Its Power: The fears we hide have the most control. Riley explains why naming fear out loud — to God and to trusted people — is the first step toward freedom. • Failure Is Not Final When Faith Leads From public crashes on national TV to deeply personal setbacks, Riley reveals how faith carried her through moments that could've ended her journey. • Feed Faith Daily What you consume matters. What you focus on grows. Riley challenges us to ask: are you feeding fear… or feeding faith? • Do Hard Things with Faith at the Center Comfort never produces calling. Growth comes when you step into discomfort trusting God to meet you there. • Keep Moving Forward — Even in the Valley Faith sometimes looks like one small step at a time. Riley shares how obedience in the smallest moments leads to breakthrough. • Stop Playing Small — God Didn't Create You That Way You were made on purpose, for a purpose. Faith requires action — and it's time to step up. If you've been battling fear, doubt, uncertainty, or hesitation — this conversation will remind you who you are, whose you are, and what you're called to do. Remember: Faith over fear. Always.
