Podcasts about greater purpose

One word of encouragement, one person who believes in you, makes a greater impact than we may realise

Hope isn't wishful thinking, it's confident trust that God is working behind the scenes, even when we can't see Him

We all desire love

Have you ever looked into someone's eyes and noticed... The sparkle was gone? ✨ Maybe it was your child. Maybe it was your spouse. Maybe... it was you. Life has a way of wearing us down. The weight of hard seasons, unanswered prayers, and overwhelming circumstances can leave us feeling exhausted and alone. If you've ever wondered whether hope can return, this episode is for you. ❤️ Hi Neighbor, In today's episode, we're exploring a powerful question: How does God restore the sparkle in our eyes? ✨ We'll begin in Psalm 13, where David cries out from a place of deep anguish, convinced God has forgotten him. But by the end of the psalm, everything changes. What happened? Then we'll turn to 2 Corinthians 1, where the Apostle Paul reveals one of God's most powerful ways of bringing comfort to hurting people. What is that? I'll also share a conversation from our family camp that reminded me how our adoption stories—both the victories and the struggles—can become a source of hope for other adoptive parents.

In this episode of the No Regrets Podcast, host Albo Esilaba is joined by one of our 2026 No Regrets speakers, Simon Mbevi, founder and Executive Director of Transform Nations—an organization committed to community transformation through transformative leadership, healthy families, and lasting community change. Pastor Simon shares his powerful story of surrender—how God invited him to lay down his own plans and dreams to embrace a greater calling. Choosing to let his life count for something beyond himself, he reflects on what it truly means to let God lead and to live for a purpose greater than personal success. Together, they explore what surrender looks like in everyday life: living for an audience of One, releasing the need for approval, and allowing Jesus to be Lord—even when surrender doesn't feel attractive. Pastor Simon emphasizes that following Christ is a journey of trust, one that requires slowing down, embracing silence and stillness, and learning to hear God's voice. They also discuss the importance of humility and community—inviting others to speak into our lives and help us see what we might miss on our own. A key reminder from this conversation: we stand tallest when we are down on our knees. Hear more from Pastor Simon at the No Regrets Conference—register at https://www.noregretsconference.org.

Every journey has its obstacles. But what, specifically, is holding you back? Sometimes it’s unconfessed sin, hidden bitterness, divided loyalties, delayed obedience, or broken relationships. Maybe you’re violating your soul and sacred relationships through pornography, and you wonder why you’re not moving forward. Yet not every roadblock is caused by unresolved sin. Even when you’re faithful, sometimes God places “hindrances” in your path which are not detours, but serve to accomplish His divine will. The latter was so with the Apostle Paul (Rom. 15:22-29). Knowing this, let us be wise to discern what’s holding us in check — our sin or God’s greater purpose. Sermon: https://churchandfamilylife.com/sermons/695b542611cff32e9efacef4

I'm opening 2026 by claiming clarity as my word for the year and sharing an honest reflection on where She Leads has been and where it is going next.In this solo episode, I share my personal journey after eleven years of serving women entrepreneurs through She Leads Media and what it means to step into a new chapter with sharper vision. A simple moment, getting new glasses, became a powerful metaphor for how deeply I'm craving clarity in my work, my focus, and the women I'm best positioned to serve. I talk candidly about the tension between wanting to help everyone and knowing that real impact requires intentionality, boundaries, and depth. At the heart of my work has always been deep listening, trusting that women already hold their own answers and need space, reflection, and support to access them.I also unpack the realities of entrepreneurship that rarely get airtime, especially for women. The same habits we bring into life, procrastination, self-doubt, resilience, show up in business, shaping outcomes for better or worse. Drawing from my teaching at NYU and Rice, I explain why foundational self-awareness matters more than any tactic or trend. I challenge the glossy, quick-fix narratives that dominate online marketing and speak honestly about the sustained effort and inner work required to build something meaningful.This episode is also a turning point. I reflect on my own realization that the current She Leads model will not reach the million-dollar scale needed to expand impact and why that matters. As I enter what feels like my third professional chapter, I share my vision for supporting women who have reached or are approaching seven figures and are asking deeper questions about purpose, burnout, and legacy.If you are craving clarity, wrestling with growth, or sensing that your next level requires a different way of leading, this conversation is for you. I invite you to listen in, reflect alongside me, and help shape the future of She Leads as we redefine what it means for women to truly lead with intention, sustainability, and impact.Chapters✨ 00:56 Welcoming 2026 with clarity and intention

Pastor Scott taught from Proverbs 16:9 and Acts 16, reminding us that while we make plans, God directs our steps—even through rejection or closed doors. Paul's partnership with Timothy showed how God had uniquely prepared him through faith, reputation, and heritage to advance the gospel. In the same way, God is working behind the scenes in our lives, redirecting us toward His greater purposes. #GodsPlan #FaithOverFear #DivineRedirection #TrustHisTiming #KingdomPurpose

Fed Meeting Recap Last week's Fed meeting held no surprises—Chairman Powell kept rates unchanged. That said, I still believe we'll see three rate cuts before the end of the year. To Powell's credit, the data he had was questionable. The Bureau of Labor Statistics revised previous jobless claims and economic data, which changed the outlook considerably. The updated numbers show a weakening economy, declining inflation, and falling energy costs. And as I always say—everything starts with energy prices. The Fed, as usual, is late to the game.

Many people consider frugality to be a Christian virtue—but is it, really?We often equate frugality with good financial stewardship, but they're not exactly the same thing. While frugality can be a wise practice, it doesn't necessarily lead to true peace or biblical financial wisdom. Let's explore the key differences and signs that frugality might be going too far.What Is Frugality?Frugality is about being careful with resources—spending less than you earn, saving money, and making economical choices. If you or someone in your household is a conscientious penny-pincher, you likely embrace frugality as a lifestyle.Frugality certainly has virtues, such as self-control and patience. Benjamin Franklin's well-known phrase, “A penny saved is a penny earned,” supports the idea that being financially cautious is a wise practice.At Faith and Finance, we encourage people to:Save for the futurePay down debtsAvoid overspendingHowever, biblical financial stewardship is much bigger than frugality.The Biblical Perspective on StewardshipFrugality alone does not guarantee peace—because, from a biblical perspective, we aren't the owners of our money or possessions. God is.Psalm 24:1 reminds us:“The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it.”Recognizing Christ's Lordship over our finances shifts the focus from simply cutting costs to honoring God with our resources.Jesus teaches in Matthew 6:19-21:“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven… for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”Frugality can help you save money on earth, but eternal rewards come from a different approach—surrendering your finances to God and using them for His purposes.Frugality is a tool, but it must be used in a way that aligns with faithful stewardship. If pursued for its own sake, it can lead to selfishness, greed, and even pride.Signs That Frugality Has Gone Too FarHow do you know when frugality has shifted from wise stewardship to financial foolishness? Here are a few red flags:1. You Spend Hours Each Week Just to Save a Few DollarsDo you spend excessive time clipping coupons, hunting for deals, or driving across town to save a few cents on gas? If frugality has become an obsession, it may be time to reassess how you're using your time.2. You Go Without Essentials Just to Save MoneyAre you skipping necessary expenses—like a bed to sleep on—just because you don't want to spend money? Being wise with money doesn't mean depriving yourself of basic needs.3. You Hoard Items Just Because They're a “Good Deal”Stocking up on necessities is fine, but filling your home with excess items (like a closet overflowing with toothpaste) may indicate a deeper issue—a lack of trust in God's provision.4. You Compromise Safety for the Sake of Saving MoneyEating expired food, skipping necessary medications, or refusing to fix important home repairs just to save a few dollars can be dangerous. Stewardship includes caring for yourself and your family, not just minimizing costs.5. Frugality Feels Like a Competition or an ObligationDo you stress out over every dollar spent? If spending any money at all causes anxiety, you may be placing too much faith in frugality rather than trusting God to provide.6. You Struggle to Be GenerousIf penny-pinching kills your generosity, that's a warning sign. Hebrews 13:16 reminds us:“Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.”True peace comes not from saving every penny but from trusting in God's provision and using money for His glory.Finding the Right BalanceEvery financial habit stems from an underlying mindset. In many cases, extreme frugality results from a lack of balance.Here's how to restore a healthy perspective on money:Use your time wisely—Clipping coupons is fine, but not if it consumes hours each week.Prioritize health and well-being—A healthy family is more valuable than a few extra dollars saved.Give generously—God calls us to share, not hoard.Trust God's provision—Money is a tool, not an idol.As Jesus teaches in Matthew 6:33:“Seek first God's kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”When you put God first, true peace isn't found in penny-pinching but in faithful stewardship and reliance on Him.The Greater Purpose of StewardshipStewardship isn't just about spending wisely—it's about using God's resources for His purposes. Our finances should reflect His kingdom priorities, not just our desire to save money.Ultimately, financial stewardship isn't about how much we save—it's about trusting God, managing resources wisely, and giving generously to advance His Kingdom. If your frugality has become a burden, it's time to release it to God and find true peace in His provision.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm trying to open a Roth IRA but getting stuck on questions about adding margin, options trading, and enabling advanced trading features.

In this episode, Pastor David explores the powerful moment in Joshua 5:1-15 when Joshua encounters a mysterious figure—who turns out to be the commander of the Lord's army. Faced with a profound question, "Are you for us or against us?", Joshua is reminded that God's priorities don't always align with ours. Pastor David highlights the importance of surrendering our own agendas and recognizing that God's plan is far greater than any personal victory. Just as Joshua had to humble himself before God, we are also called to lay down our own will in pursuit of His kingdom. Pastor David encourages listeners to reflect on where we stand with God. Are we truly seeking His will, or are we merely asking Him to bless our plans? By understanding who God is and submitting to His authority, we can align ourselves with His greater purpose, stepping into victory not through our strength but through His. This passage challenges us to evaluate our priorities and reminds us that God is not just a part of our story; we are part of His.
