When the world feels on fire, how do our souls find rest in God alone?
This week’s two-part episode is close to my heart.
In the wake of recent violence, I first pause to reflect on what it means to choose love in an age when outrage feels easier.
From there, I turn to a conversation with my friend and mentor, Dr. Stephen Macchia. Steve has spent decades guiding people into deeper intimacy with God through practices of silence, prayer, and community. Together we explore the barriers distraction creates, why being truly listened to is so healing, and how slowing down opens space for God’s presence in our lives.
This episode is an invitation to lay down outrage, pick up compassion, and step into the quiet spaces where God does His best work.
