Small Faith Big God

What does it feel like to want to grow in God… but constantly feel like you’re failing Him?In this episode of Growing Pains With God, I open up about the pressure of being the oldest daughter in an Indian Christian family — where responsibility, expectations, and faith all collide.We talk about:• The pressure of being “the responsible one” in both family and faith• Growing up in a Christian environment that looks spiritual but feels complicated underneath• The cycle of trying, failing, and feeling unworthy• Spiritual burnout and why it doesn’t mean you’re failing• What growth in God actually looks like (and why it’s slower and softer than we think)If you’ve ever felt like:“I should be better by now.”“Why can’t I stay consistent?”“I want God… but I keep falling short.”This episode is for you.You’re not failing.You’re carrying too much.And God sees your context — even when others don’t.🌿 You’re allowed to grow slowly.

What do you do when you feel like giving up spiritually?Not walking away from God…just… feeling too tired to keep trying.In this episode of Small Faith Big God, I talk about spiritual exhaustion — the quiet kind of burnout that comes from pressure, inconsistency, anxiety, and feeling distant from God.We explore:• Why spiritual burnout isn’t laziness• Where the desire to “give up” actually comes from• The story of Elijah (1 Kings 19) and how God responds to exhaustion• What to do when you don’t have the energy to pray or try• And how God carries us when we feel like we have nothing leftIf you’ve ever thought:“I’m too tired to keep showing up.”“I don’t feel God anymore.”“I just want to stop trying.”This episode is for you.You’re not failing.You’re overwhelmed.And God meets you there — gently.Even tired faith is still faith. 🌿

There are moments when shame gets loud.Moments where we quietly wonder,“Why would God love someone like me?”In this episode of Small Faith, Big God, I talk honestly about the feeling of being unlovable — the shame, the self-doubt, and the quiet lies that creep into our minds during our lowest moments.Together we sit with Romans 5:8 and the truth that God’s love isn’t earned by our best days or canceled by our worst ones.We also explore the difference between the kinds of love we often experience in the world — transactional, reciprocal, manipulative — and the kind of love God offers: unconditional.If you’ve ever felt too messy, too inconsistent, or too broken for grace…this episode is for you.God doesn’t love the future version of you.He loves you — right here, right now.

Why do we feel guilty when we struggle with our faith?In this episode of Small Faith Big God, I’m opening up about the spiritual guilt cycle — the kind that starts with missing prayer or skipping church and slowly turns into shame, avoidance, and feeling unworthy of God.We’ll talk about:• The difference between conviction and condemnation• Why guilt can feel spiritual — but isn’t always from God• Romans 8:1 and what “no condemnation in Christ” really means• How anxiety, inconsistency, and exhaustion affect our spiritual life• And how God breaks the guilt loop with grace, not pressureIf you’ve ever thought:“Am I disappointing God?”“Why can’t I be more consistent?”“Why do I avoid Him when I mess up?”You’re not alone.This episode is for the Christian who feels behind, tired, anxious, or quietly ashamed — and needs to remember that grace is still sufficient.You’re not failing God.You’re growing.And He hasn’t moved away from you.Take a deep breath.Let’s untangle guilt together. 🌿

Have you ever tried to pray… and felt absolutely nothing?In this episode of Small Faith, Big God, I talk honestly about spiritual dryness — the silence, the guilt, the overthinking, and the quiet shame that comes when prayer feels empty.What do you do when you don’t feel God?Is something wrong with you?Or is prayer less about emotion… and more about showing up?We look at Psalm 145:18 and unpack what it really means for God to be near — even when we don’t feel Him.If you’ve ever sat in silence wondering if anyone is listening, this episode is for you.You’re not alone. Keep showing up.

My relationship with the Bible isn’t aesthetic.It isn’t perfectly structured.And it definitely isn’t daily.Some seasons I read deeply.Some seasons I barely open it.And somewhere in between, I wrestle with guilt, distraction, doubt, and the pressure to “do better.”In this episode, I talk about what it really looks like to love Scripture while struggling with consistency — especially as someone who is neurodivergent, easily overwhelmed, and allergic to spiritual performance.This isn’t a productivity episode.It’s a conversation about honesty.Because maybe faithfulness isn’t measured in streaks.Maybe it’s measured in returning.If your Bible has dust on it but your heart still longs for God, this one’s for you.

Church isn’t something I avoid because of a lack of faith.I avoid it because my body and mind don’t always cooperate.In this episode, I talk honestly about living with social anxiety, low blood pressure, low blood sugar, and the very real physical toll that comes with showing up in crowded spaces. I share what it feels like to want God deeply, yet struggle with fear, faintness, and overwhelm—sometimes all at once.This isn’t a critique of the Church.It’s a confession of a body that gets tired, an anxious mind, and a faith that’s learning how to show up differently.If you’ve ever loved God but felt limited by your health, your anxiety, or your capacity—this episode is for you.

In this first episode, I share my real story of feeling behind in faith — even as a born-again Christian who knows the Bible but struggles with lukewarmness, exhaustion, and spiritual numbness. If you’ve ever felt too anxious for church, too tired to pray, or too overwhelmed to start again, this gentle conversation is for you.
