The Beautiful Messy Show

JOIN ANYTIME:https://www.heatherbaxter.com/n this episode, we dive into Esther chapters 4 and 5, where everything shifts from fear to bold action. Faced with a crisis that threatens her people, Esther is challenged to step into her purpose—even when it could cost her life. With encouragement from Mordecai, she begins to see that her position isn’t accidental, but part of a bigger plan “for such a time as this.”We talk about what it looks like to wrestle with fear, make courageous decisions, and trust timing we don’t fully understand. Esther doesn’t rush—she pauses, fasts, and prepares before taking action. And when she finally steps forward, it’s not loud or dramatic, but intentional and wise.Chapter 5 shows us that courage doesn’t always mean immediate results. Esther takes a strategic approach, inviting the king and Haman to a banquet instead of blurting everything out. It’s a reminder that bravery and wisdom often go hand in hand, and that waiting can be part of the process too.This conversation explores messy faith, quiet strength, and what it means to show up when it really matters—even if you’re unsure, afraid, or not fully ready.

Welcome to today's show! You may not always like the environment you’re in. You may question the process. You may even grieve parts of your journey. But Esther reminds us of this truth:God can use what He did not cause.He didn’t design broken systems—but He knows how to navigate them. He didn’t create injustice—but He raises people who will confront it at the right time.So if you’re being stretched, refined, and even uncomfortable—don’t rush it. And if you’re facing a “chapter 3” moment—where opposition is rising—don’t fear it.Because preparation and purpose are often happening at the same time.And right on schedule, your voice will matter.https://www.heatherbaxter.com/

In today’s episode of The Beautiful Messy Show, Pastor Heather Baxter shares powerful insights from the life of Esther—reminding us that even in the middle of life’s most uncertain and “disastrous” situations, God is still at work.Esther’s journey from orphan to queen reveals a deeper truth: you are not where you are by accident. God positions us with purpose, even when the path feels messy or unclear. Through seasons of preparation, hidden growth, and courageous obedience, Esther shows us what it looks like to trust God fully.This episode explores how we all face moments that feel overwhelming—our own “King Ahasuerus” situations—but like Esther, we are called to rise with courage and faith. What may look like a setback can become the very platform God uses for breakthrough and impact.  In this episode, you’ll be reminded: You are positioned for a purpose  Preparation happens in hidden seasons  Courage often requires risk  God can turn your mess into a message Be encouraged—your story isn’t over. Like Esther, you are being called to step into your moment “for such a time as this.”

Beautiful Chaos: Purpose and Power is raw and uplifting!  Embrace the messiness of life while stepping fully into who you’re meant to be. Today's episode dives into real conversations about growth, setbacks, self-discovery, and the strength it takes to keep going when things don’t look perfect.This show is a reminder that your struggles don’t disqualify you—they shape you. Today let's explore how purpose is often found in the middle of uncertainty, and how true power comes from owning every part of your journey—the polished and the broken.If you’ve ever felt like your life is a work in progress, this podcast will meet you there—and help you rise anyway.https://www.heatherbaxter.com/Pastor HeatherCoaching, teaching and Spiritual Formation

Happy April and Welcome to Quarter Two which is SEASON 2! Today’s episode is for anyone who feels like a work in progress — which is all of us. Life can feel messy, uncertain, and unfinished. We carry questions, flaws, and moments that don’t quite make sense yet. But that doesn’t mean the story is over.There is purpose in the process.Growth doesn’t always look polished. Sometimes it looks like setbacks, delays, or starting over. But every step — even the hard ones — is shaping you into who you’re meant to become. You are still being refined, still being molded, still becoming.So if today feels heavy or incomplete, remember this:You are not behind.You are not forgotten.You are not finished.The work is still happening — in the quiet, in the waiting, in the becoming.Stay encouraged. Stay hopeful. Your “completion” is coming. 💫#BeautifulMessyShow #FaithInProgress #NotFinished #KeepGoing #GrowthJourneyhttps://www.heatherbaxter.com/

Welcome back to Beautiful Messy Show, where faith meets real life in all its imperfect, powerful moments.This week, we’re diving into Week 4 of our Bible study with HB Ministries, and today’s Wednesday episode centers on a verse many of us know by heart—but are still learning to truly live:Philippians 4:13 — “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”At first glance, this verse can feel like a motivational quote, something we say when we’re trying to push through challenges or reach goals. But today, we’re slowing down and breaking it apart to understand what it really means.This isn’t about doing everything on our own or achieving perfection. It’s about recognizing that our strength doesn’t come from ourselves—it comes from God. In seasons where we feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or even defeated, this verse reminds us that we are not operating alone.On today’s episode, we talk about:What Paul meant when he wrote this verse and the context behind itThe difference between worldly strength and God-given strengthHow to lean on God when you feel like you have nothing leftReal-life moments where trusting God changed everythingThis journey isn’t about having it all together. It’s about trusting God in the middle of the mess—because that’s where His strength shows up the most.

How do we live, move, and set goals while we’re still waiting on Him to work?We explore the difference between vision and goals, why waiting is an active part of faith, and how setting one intentional goal for each area of your life wheel can help you steward your season without striving. This episode is an invitation to execute faithfully, wait patiently, and trust God with the outcome—learning how to walk in obedience while the vision unfolds in His timing.If you’re in a season of waiting, this conversation will remind you that you’re not behind—you’re becoming.Welcome to the WEBSITE see what we have in Quarter onehttps://www.heatherbaxter.com/after-eden-bible-studyPurchase a 2026 Warbinder Here:https://www.heatherbaxter.com/Join the HB MENTORSHIP SCHOOL HERE:https://www.heatherbaxter.com/event-details/crown-on-wings-out-heart-steady-quarter-one-2026HB MINISTRIES FACEBOOK COMMUNITY GROUP:https://www.facebook.com/groups/359253591516040

The word dream isn’t something we hear as often anymore — but hope is something every single one of us understands.In today’s episode, we unpack the connection between hope and dreaming, and why they are inseparable. The Bible tells us that hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a desire fulfilled is a tree of life. That desire begins with hope.Hope is not wishful thinking. It’s the birthplace of dreams. It’s the quiet belief that something better is possible — even when circumstances say otherwise.This conversation is a reminder that we were all created to dream, and that rediscovering hope is the first step toward bringing those dreams back to life.Today, we rediscover hope — together.thank you for listening to today's show.

James 4:6-10 in The Message translation emphasizes humility and the importance of drawing close to God. Here are some key lessons from this passage:Humility Over Pride: God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. Recognizing our limitations and shortcomings allows us to receive God's help.Drawing Near to God: The call to draw near to God suggests that a relationship with Him requires intentional effort. When we seek Him, He promises to come close to us.Confession and Cleansing: The passage encourages us to cleanse our hands and purify our hearts, emphasizing the importance of repentance and honesty in our relationship with God.Sorrow for Sin: Acknowledging our wrongdoings and feeling genuine sorrow for them is a step toward spiritual renewal.God’s Comfort: Ultimately, the message reassures us that when we humble ourselves before God, He lifts us up, providing comfort and strength.These themes remind us of the transformative power of humility and the grace that comes from a sincere relationship with God.

JAMES BIBLE STUDY Grab a copy today on my Amazon Author Book Shelf! HB WOMENS FACEBOOK GROUPTodays PointsThe concept of two judgment seats often refers to the distinct judgments that believers and non-believers will face according to Christian theology.The Judgment Seat of Christ (Bema Seat): This is for believers, where they are evaluated on their faithfulness and works. It's not about salvation but rewards—what they did with the gifts and opportunities given to them. This emphasizes the importance of living a life of service and obedience to God.The Great White Throne Judgment: This is for non-believers, where final judgment occurs based on their rejection of God and His offer of salvation. It underscores the seriousness of choosing to accept or reject faith in Christ.In terms of salvation, these judgments highlight that salvation itself is based on faith in Christ, while our works and choices as believers will determine our rewards in eternity. This duality reinforces the importance of both faith and a life lived in accordance with that faith.We can walk away focusing on ❤️The Royal Law❤️Partiality❤️Judgement and Mercy❤️accountability❤️REFLECTION of God's Character❤️Community and Unity! Thank you for listening! Please share with a friendxoHB

Today we are going to look at James 1:9-11Let us look at the trials between the rich and the poor.9 Believers in humble circumstances ought to take pride in their high position. 10 But the rich should take pride in their humiliation—since they will pass away like a wild flower. 11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich will fade away even while they go about their business.Thank you for listening today! Blessings, Heather

I will share some powerful visuals with you today as wee look at  Galations 6:9 and Romans 5:3-4Remember at all times to Check your GardenCelebrate and enjoy everything you’re growing! 💐After all, what’s the point if we don’t take a moment to appreciate the beauty we've created?DO NOT QUIT~ Think about where you need support.Just like how we net our plants and stake our flowers to help them grow strong, we should set up the right supports in our day to day life Don't forget the little weeds.If we don’t pull them now, they can take over everything. Slowing down to take care of those small issues now will prevent them from becoming big problems down the road.Take the time to trim back.Sometimes we need to prune back so things can bloom even more beautifully. It’s all about creating space for new growth and allowing our life wheel to flourish.So, let’s embrace the season, tend to our gardens (both literal and metaphorical), and watch our hard work pay off with a summer full of blooms.Thank you for listening today! 

We are currently in season 22 THE BLOOM STUDY: Finding Gods will for your life. This weeks theme is Bloom where you are planted. On Today's episode we will learn how to perceive what NEW thing God is doing so we can bloom! Well today's lesson landed on one of my LIFE VERSES! I was so excited to chat with you today! I have a great visual and also I shared a testimony that a lady sent in  regards to a past podcast episode! This will encourage you and make you laugh when you hear my God visual for this verse! We are blooming right where we need to be. God will transplant and uproot you in the process if need be. Take a listen and lets dig deeper in the meaning of ISAIAH 43:19Your situation may be as hot and barren as a desert or as forlorn and meaningless as a wasteland. You may be tempted to think "There's no way!" when someone suggests things could change. All I ask is that you read that verse one more time. Does God lie? Are you an exception? Since He's been doing "a new thing" in places like drab deserts and wintry wastelands for centuries, I suggest you be on the ready to perceive the NEW! God is excited for you!
