Let us know what you think of the show!

Are you truly pursuing God—or just performing for His approval?

In this honest and hope-filled episode, Octavia sits down with James Neal to talk about what it really means to seek God—not for the blessing, but because of love. Together they explore how performance sneaks into our spiritual lives, why waiting on God sometimes becomes a disguise for fear, and how to discern God’s will with confidence.

This episode is for anyone who's tired of checklist Christianity and wants to grow in deeper trust, spiritual maturity, and purpose. From parenting analogies to Bible truth, this one is packed with practical wisdom and grace.

Topics include:

  • Pursuit as a response, not a performance
  • Spiritual discernment: your will or God’s?
  • What to do when you feel “stuck” spiritually
  • Why your first step matters more than the last dive
  • The myth of the tightrope: God’s will is not that fragile
  • Financial stewardship, spiritual deposits, and overdraft faith
  • What legacy are you leaving your children?
