In today’s episode, I talk about how I’m not sure when I’ll release another episode because there are only nine days left until I get married. I reflect on how surreal it feels to be at this stage of my life and how unprepared I sometimes feel. At the same time, I share how I’m learning to be present where God has me right now and to trust that He has been preparing me all along, even when I didn’t realize it. I also talk about why continuing to trust God is so important to me, because He has never failed me yet.

In today’s episode, I talk about the quote, “You cannot un-one what God made one” by Andy Stanley, and the importance of understanding the divine purpose of marriage, specifically as a covenant.

In today’s episode, I open up about not fully understanding my purpose—why I do what I do and why I find myself comparing my life to others. Through it all, I come back to this truth: God knows you, and that’s the only validation that truly matters.

In today’s episode, I reflect on how the journey through life is the destination itself. I dive into why God calls us to be fully present in each moment, and how it’s in that presence that we truly find Him.

In today’s episode, I talk about God’s love for us and how He is always working within us, even through times of pain and loss. I reflect on the purpose of love and how it is the most essential part of our existence. I also speak on the hope God gives us, along with His unconditional love and peace, trusting that through this pain, He is growing me in ways I don’t even yet understand.

In this episode, we explore who the Holy Spirit is and why He is essential in the Christian walk. The Holy Spirit is not just a concept or feeling, but the living presence of God within us—guiding, convicting, comforting, and transforming us to become more like Christ.

In today’s episode, I talk about the importance of the phases in our lives—both good and bad—and how each one has led us to where we stand today.

Through it all, God has a plan for every season we enter, and that is something we can always be grateful for.Need Prayer or just a friend to talk to DM me on Instagram @liketherxstJESUS IS LORD!!!🙏🏼✝️

In today’s episode, I talk about the pressures of trying to grasp who we truly are and what we are meant for in this lifetime—while also understanding how difficult it is to accept that we were someone different five years ago, and that five years from now, we’ll be someone new again. Jesus shows us that there will be times we don’t understand, and that’s okay, because we can trust He is leading us on a journey that draws us closer to Him.Need Prayer or just a friend to talk to DM me on Instagram @liketherxstJESUS IS LORD!!!🙏🏼✝️

In this episode, we dive into the true power of inspiration—what it means, where it comes from, and why it’s not meant to just be felt, but acted on. It’s easy to be inspired by others, but real growth happens when we respond with movement, discipline, and purpose.We explore how inspiring people can ignite something inside of us, but also challenge the idea that inspiration without action leads nowhere. If you feel it, there’s a reason—now it’s on you to move.The episode also highlights powerful, inspiring figures from the Bible like David, whose faith and courage defined his life, and ultimately points to Jesus Christ as the greatest example of a life that didn’t just inspire—but transformed the world through action, obedience, and love.This is a call to stop sitting in inspiration and start living it.Follow my Instagram @liketherxst for more content and tips and advice.

In this episode, I explore the biblical importance of fasting and why it remains one of the most powerful spiritual disciplines for believers. While nearing the end of a 48-hour fast, I experienced a surprising moment of motivation that led me to run three miles in the rain without stopping. That moment of discipline and clarity even pushed me to sign up for a half marathon in July. Through my story, I reflect on how fasting can strengthen the spirit, sharpen focus, and draw us closer to God.DM me on instagram @liketherxst for questions, prayer requests, or episode ideas

This episode explores the Book of Revelation as a message of hope and endurance, not fear. We unpack its historical context and why it was written to strengthen believers under pressure. Instead of obsessing over timelines, we focus on the throne of God and the victory of Jesus. We discuss how modern culture mirrors “Babylon” and still tempts believers to compromise. Ultimately, Revelation calls us to live faithful, bold, and awake as we await Christ’s return.DM me on Instagram @liketherxst with future episode ideas, comments, or if you just need someone to talk to.

statues or false gods — it’s anything that takes God’s place in our hearts. We talk about how good things like success, relationships, money, or even ministry can quietly become ultimate things. Through Scripture and the teachings of Jesus, we see how idols promise fulfillment but always leave us empty. Following Christ forces us to confront what we’re unwilling to surrender. Ultimately, freedom comes when we reorder our worship and make Jesus our greatest love.DM me on Instagram @liketherxst for anything — prayer, someone to talk to, or any questions you may have.

In today’s episode, I talk about the desire for money and how it can quietly take hold of the heart.

In this episode, I explore what it truly means to fear—and how the world constantly pressures us to fear the things of this world. Scripture shows us that this way of thinking is misguided. Throughout the Bible, we repeatedly encounter the call to “fear God,” not out of terror, but out of reverence and awe. We are called to fear Him alone because He is the one true Creator and the loving Father of us all.Feel free to DM me on Instagram for prayer, conversation, or any questions you have: @liketherxst
