Podcasts about spiritual growth

If you've been telling yourself you're stuck...stuck in your career, your relationships, your spiritual growth, or your sense of purpose...this New Year's Eve episode challenges that assumption head-on. In this powerful solo reflection, Will explores a truth many people encounter during spiritual awakening but rarely talk about: that feeling of being stuck often isn't confusion or lack of clarity, it's fear of becoming the next version of yourself. This episode dives into the quieter, more uncomfortable side of modern spirituality... the part that doesn't promise instant manifestation, constant alignment, or easy answers. Instead, it looks at how awakening expands consciousness before it brings peace, why insight without action creates anxiety, and how real transformation begins with release rather than effort. You'll hear a grounded, honest exploration of:Why awareness doesn't automatically lead to changeHow identity shifts affect intuition development and decision-makingThe hidden emotional cost of staying “almost ready”Why growth often feels destabilizing before it feels freeingHow to recognize when a chapter is truly completeRather than offering resolutions or surface-level inspiration, this episode invites deep self-inquiry, the kind that supports genuine spiritual growth, clearer intuition, and alignment with your evolving soul purpose. If you're navigating awakening, questioning old beliefs, or sensing that something in your life has quietly run its course, this conversation is designed to meet you exactly where you are...without bypassing, platitudes, or pressure to pretend. Listen with honesty. Sit with what surfaces. And allow space for what's ready to begin.KEY THEMES & TAKEAWAYSSpiritual awakening doesn't always feel peaceful, it often feels unsettlingWhy fear is a signal of expansion, not failureThe difference between insight and integrationHow intuition strengthens when you stop betraying what you already knowWhy release is often the missing piece in manifestationLetting go of outdated roles, identities, and expectationsReframing “stuck” as a threshold of consciousnessSubscribe, Rate & Review!

Start your new year with hope that goes beyond new diets, fitness programs, and the relentless pursuit of body perfection. In this heartfelt episode, host Heather Creekmore sits down with her former client, Lesley, to share her transformative journey from food and body image bondage to genuine spiritual and emotional freedom. Lesley spent years as a health and wellness coach, tracking every calorie, restricting food, and chasing a number on the scale—all while struggling with her own body image issues. She candidly shares how these patterns began in grade school, persisted into adulthood, and continued even as she helped others pursue their health goals. Despite her expertise, she found herself trapped by obsession and shame surrounding food, weight, and self-worth. Through Heather Creekmore's Body Image Freedom Framework, Lesley began to untangle the deep connection between identity and body image. Her story is honest about the challenges—grief, fear, letting go of control, and even stepping away from her coaching business—but it's also filled with hope and victory. Lesley discovered that true freedom came not from changing her body, but from changing her beliefs, surrendering her idol of body image, and learning to trust God’s gentle guidance through all the lows and highs. In this episode, you'll hear: How body image struggles often start early and shape identity The dangers of moralizing food, restriction, and attachment to the scale The life-changing power of shifting focus from external rules to internal cues and grace The role of faith and community in healing, surrender, and practical recovery How Lesley found peace, joy, and presence in her body—without chasing weight loss goals If you’re tired of repeating the same health resolutions and want lasting change, this episode is an inspiring invitation to start your body image freedom journey.

This stage is all about the closeness that comes as a result of immense trials. As God begins to develop leaders, he also refines them for greater purposes. This growth step brings about a nearness to Jesus similar to that of the three Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace. The question now remains: what's next?

Send us a textWhy do we start doubting ourselves spiritually the moment life gets hard?So many people on a spiritual path are told that alignment should feel peaceful, flowing, and easy. But when pain, loss, confusion, or uncertainty shows up, it often leads to one quiet question: “Am I doing this wrong?”In this episode, we get real about why spiritual doubt happens during hard seasons — and why struggle is not a sign of failure, disconnection, or misalignment. We talk about the difference between initiation vs punishment, why real growth requires dismantling old identities, and how healing often stirs things up instead of smoothing them over.This is a grounded, honest conversation about spirituality beyond aesthetics and platitudes — one that makes space for grief, confusion, faith, intuition, and the human experience.If you've ever questioned your intuition, your faith, or your connection to God or Spirit because life didn't turn out the way you expected, this episode is for you.✨ In this episode, we explore:Why spirituality is often marketed as peace, flow, and easeHow pain can feel like evidence we failedWhy we internalize blame instead of asking better questionsInitiations vs punishments on a spiritual pathWhy alignment doesn't always feel peacefulHow to stay connected to yourself during uncertaintyYou're not broken. You're not behind. And you're not doing it wrong.THE RECLAIM INTENSIVE (3 month Coaching)https://isabelhealing.com/the-reclaim-intensive/Support the showContact For Real Talk with IsabelEmail: isabelmindbodysoul@gmail.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/franke.isabel/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@isabel.franke?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pcWebsite: https://isabelhealing.com

John 14:9: Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip?” It is possible to be with Jesus, even for a great length of time, and not know Him as we should. This enlightening sermon encourages believers to deepen their relationship with Christ, explore the depths of their faith, and fully embrace the acceptance, satisfaction, empowerment, accountability, and eternal union that Jesus offers. Perfect for those seeking to rekindle their Christian walk and understand the profound truths of spiritual growth.

What does it truly mean to make disciples? In this powerful four-part conclusion to the Commands of Christ series, we explore the Great Commission as the crescendo of all that Jesus commanded. Rooted in Matthew 28:18–20, this series calls us to move from inward transformation to outward multiplication. As we have spent four years treasuring, meditating on, and living out Christ's commands, we now step into the command to teach others to observe all things He has taught us.Have we allowed the commands of Christ to shape our lives so deeply that we are compelled to pass them on to others? What legacy of discipleship are we leaving behind for the next generation?As we conclude this four-year journey through the commands of Christ, we are invited into the very heartbeat of discipleship: to go, to teach, and to pass on what we've received. The Great Commission is not the end—it's a beginning. Jesus calls us to treasure His commands, not only in our study and meditation, but in our obedience and our sharing (Matthew 28:18–20). We've discovered that these 51 commands are not mere rules but revelations of Christ's character, windows into His heart, and pathways into deeper relationship with Him. From abiding in Him to receiving His power, from denying self to awaiting His return, each command has formed a beautiful mosaic of what it means to follow Jesus. Now, with full hearts, we pass the baton—encouraging every listener to continue in the Word, to keep treasuring His commands, and to go make disciples. Let us walk forward with boldness, knowing that Christ goes with us, and let us live in such a way that others see Him clearly through our lives. This is not just a podcast series—it is the ongoing call of Christ. May we hear it and follow Him faithfully.Want to go deeper in studying this command of Christ?

In DTWOL… A Fresh Set of Eyes confronts the difference between physical eyesight and spiritual vision. This Godcast reveals that perception is not reality—revelation is solely given by the only true God. Through Scripture you'll see God's workmanship in Lydia.

Listeners are invited to move beyond admiration into obedience, learning to see what Jesus sees and step into the harvest He's already prepared for His disciple's workmanship. This episode calls every disciple to fix their eyes on Jesus, walk in His Light, and live out a faith that's in motion in spiritual worship, mission by commission, and transformed sight and lives to produce fruit, amen?

In this concluding Mussar Masterclass (Day 110) of the Gate of Remembrance in Orchos Tzaddikim, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe wraps up the chapter's 30 remembrances, emphasizing their power to soften and illuminate the soul, remove darkness, and instill constant awareness of Hashem's presence. He urges listeners to revisit and expand on each point daily (or weekly), as remembrance drives action and teshuvah.Key themes include: living with perpetual consciousness of Hashem's constant watch (like a king always holding a Torah scroll), rejecting grudges while remembering personal wrongs to seek forgiveness, and prioritizing inner spiritual growth over external validation. The rabbi stresses that true value lies in maximizing one's unique potential before Hashem, who believes in us even when we doubt ourselves. He highlights the tragedy of death as lost opportunity for mitzvot, encouraging immediate action in this world to build eternal merit.

How does Jesus reach for us when we're convinced we can never return back to Him?In this week's episode of Latter-Day Lights, Tyler Christen—a returned soldier and lifelong Latter-Day Saint who spent years in and out of the Church—shares his raw, unfiltered journey through addiction, isolation, spiritual darkness, and repeated attempts to walk away from the Gospel.From battling the temptations of pornography and party culture in the military, surviving serious car accidents, grieving a miscarriage, and experiencing terrifying demonic encounters and sleep paralysis, Tyler describes what it felt like to believe he was beyond forgiveness... Until the night he finally gave in and cried out the name of Jesus Christ.From then on, doors began to open as Tyler found himself guided through dreams, spiritual impressions, and moments of unmistakable divine intervention that led him back to the scriptures, the temple, and a renewed sense of purpose in the Gospel. In this episode, Tyler talks about learning to recognize the Savior's voice and his realization of being a dream interpreter—all while discovering that the gifts of the Spirit are real.If you've ever questioned whether Jesus can still use you, Tyler's story is a bold reminder that Christ's grace can reach into the darkest places and turn a "lost cause" into a disciple on fire.*** Please SHARE Tyler's story and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH this episode on YouTube, visit: https://youtu.be/P9csAvu5PFw -----To READ Scott's new book “Faith to Stay” for free, visit: https://www.faithtostay.com/-----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.

If stage 3 is all about a disciple having the natural desire to ask "what can I do for the Lord?", stage 4 is all about servant leadership training. What's your next step as a disciple? Are you prepared to step up and lead as a student-leader?

If Jesus said that faith even as small as a mustard seed could move mountains…then why are so many of your mountains still standing?Unfortunately, Christian husbands living the nice guy lie are told that all they need is a teeny tiny speck of faith. If that's the case...then...Why is your marriage still stuck, your finances capped, your health unchanged, your inner world still heavy… even though you “believe” and you've been told that “even a tiny mustard seed of faith is enough”? In fact, many Christian husbands struggle with weak faith and stagnant growth in their marriage, finances, and personal well-being, despite believing the common teaching about tiny faith. In this teaching, I'm going to show you something that might upset a lot of Sunday school lessons:Jesus never talked about the small size of your faith.He talked about the nature of it.We're going into the Greek, the interlinear, and the actual word Jesus used. Then we'll look at what mustard actually does in the wild: it's invasive, dominant, environment-transforming. And you're going to see that the faith that moves mountains is not a cute, tiny speck… it's an invasive, aggressive, environment-changing belief that crowds out doubt, fear, and passivity.Once you see this, it will change:How you prayHow you fight for your marriageHow you go after healing, provision, and breakthroughHow you interpret “unanswered” prayers in your lifeAnd if you're a Christian husband who's tired of praying tiny prayers while your marriage slowly dies… this is your wake-up call. Heaven is not asking you for a polite speck of faith. Heaven is inviting you into a wildfire faith that rewires your inner world, rewrites your story, and forcefully invades the darkness and the world around you.Stop playing the polite Christian Nice Guy role.

What if the key to silencing your overactive mind exists at a specific frequency? In this episode of The Skeptic Metaphysicians, hosts Will and Karen dive deep with Ryan Stanley, owner of Sacred Sound of the Soul, to uncover how sound healing moves beyond relaxation fluff into genuine neurobiological transformation.Ryan, a former corporate executive who pivoted to exploring consciousness expansion through sound, reveals the science-backed mechanisms behind why crystal bowls induce immediate calm, from vagus nerve stimulation to frequency-based entrainment. But here's what makes this conversation different: he refuses to oversell the "woo," instead grounding energy healing in practical, observable results that listeners can replicate at home.In this episode, you'll discover why stress has become our baseline operating system and how 15 minutes with a crystal bowl can reset your nervous system. You'll learn the neurobiological mechanics of how sound vibrations impact your vagus nerve and central nervous system.

If you've been overwhelmed, pushing too hard, or feeling disconnected from yourself… this conversation is going to bring you back home. And if you want support, tools, guidance, and a community that keeps you anchored in alignment instead of burnout, come join my Mindset + Alignment Collective.You get a 7-day free trial, no contracts, no pressure—just support, healing, clarity, and growth.

Send us a textWe ask a simple but searching question: is a date on the calendar quietly running your spiritual life? Together, we talk about the common habit of waiting for January 1st—or Monday, or the “right time”—to finally change, and how that delay slowly erodes peace, fuels numbing behaviors, and keeps us distant from God. We explore the hidden costs of postponement during the holidays: overeating that dulls awareness, scrolling that steals presence, spending that numbs grief, and the pressure that crashes down when the new year arrives. Anchored in Romans 12:2, Proverbs 3:5–6, and Psalm 95, we re-frame change as daily mind renewal and trust, not a performance-driven reset. Along the way, we share honest stories of striving, fear of failure, and the relief that comes when we let go of perfectionism and return to a daily walk with God.At the heart of the episode is Look and Learn, a simple two-part rhythm for resilient growth. First, we look with God at what actually happened—without judgment—asking questions like: Was I tired? Triggered? Believing something untrue? Then we learn by naming truth we can hold onto now and considering how we might respond differently next time. This practice turns setbacks into growth points and reminds us that every moment is an invitation to begin again. We close by remembering that the gospel calls us to reliance, not resolutions, and that Philippians 1:6 assures us God Himself is faithfully carrying the process forward. If you're tired of waiting for the perfect start, we invite you to take one surrendered step today.Class starts December 10thhttps://teamlifeisgood.com/goSupport the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

“Then the Lord sent this message through the prophet Haggai: ‘Why are you living in luxurious houses while my house lies in ruins? This is what the Lord of Heaven's Armies says: Look at what's happening to you! You have planted much but harvest little. You eat but are not satisfied. You drink but are still thirsty. You put on clothes but cannot keep warm. Your wages disappear as though you were putting them in pockets filled with holes.'” - Haggai 1:3-6The book of Haggai is a bit of a jump back to the books of Ezra and Nehemiah and refocuses in on the temple. At its heart, this is a book about priorities. As the passage I just read says, “Why are you living in luxurious houses while my house lies in ruins?” God is using the prophet Haggai to call out hypocrisy, to call out wayward hearts but lo and behold, what happens? The people listen and we get to see God's response to their obedience. Haggai is not the longest book by any means, but there's a lot in it to unpack. To help us navigate the book of Haggai is Dr. Brian German, Associate Professor of Theology and Director of Concordia Bible Institute, and author of a commentary on Haggai. Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by Jason Wieland.
