Cathy Colver Garland - Revelationship: What Happens When You Say Yes to God Every Time

One on One with Mista Yu

What happens when your perfectly planned Christian life falls apart? Cathy knows the terrain of disappointment, having navigated divorce, health challenges, and shattered expectations despite "doing everything right." Yet rather than abandoning faith, she discovered something richer: an authentic relationship with a God who reveals Himself in every season, especially the difficult ones.
Growing up as the oldest of six children with parents active in ministry, Cathy learned early to discern God's voice. Her breakthrough came through a simple yet profound insight: "Just say yes to God every time he asks you and no to the devil every time he asks you, and you'll end up doing all God has called you to do." This approach freed her from the paralysis of trying to decipher God's master plan and instead embraced a responsive relationship with Him.
Whether discussing her popular blog "Graceful Musings," her passion for Hebrew language, or her concerns about consumeristic Christianity, Cathy combines thoughtful theology with practical wisdom. For anyone navigating disappointment, deconstruction, or spiritual uncertainty, her story offers a refreshing alternative to both rigid religiosity and faith abandonment—a third way of profound relationship with a God who still speaks, moves, and reveals Himself today.
