The Pouring Point

In Part One of this topic, we're talking about enduring suffering that we bring on ourselves.Jesus told us that we’d experience trouble as followers of Him, but He also told us that He’s already overcome it. No one enjoys suffering, but we find hope in the fact that it’s temporary. Joy is on its way!Scripture: John 16:33 “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” James 5:13 “Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms.” Romans 8:18 “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” 1 Peter 5:10 “But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.”

Jesus commands us to love our enemies, which is counter-cultural. Loving your friends and family comes naturally. The true test of faith is choosing to love when it’s so easy to hate.Scriptures: Matthew 5:43-44; Romans 12:20

When God pours out oil, it’s called anointing. Anointing with oil signified the act of installing a person into a special office or setting apart an object for sacred rites. The Lord sent Samuel to anoint David as king of Israel when he was still a boy.On today’s episode, we’re talking about what it means to be anointed by God. If you believe that you may be anointed and called by God, I think you’ll enjoy this conversation.Scriptures: 1 Samuel 16:1, 1 John 2:20,27, Psalm 23:5:, I Chronicles 16:22:

God instructs us not to worry about anything, but instead, to pray about EVERYTHING. Prayer is the key to overcoming anxiety and worry. We're discussing how anxiety and worry spiritually affect us. I hope it encourages you.Scriptures: Proverbs 12:25, Philippians 4:6-7, and Matthew 6:25-34

Our intro to today's episode is presented by my special guest, HAYVEN!!! My sweet girl turns 5 years old today!In this episode, we're discussing the pruning process. Staying connected to our Source is the key to living a free life. There are so many things pulling at us, vying for our attention, so it’s crucial to set aside time to connect with our Father.Scripture: John 15:1-8

On this episode, we're talking about surrendering our lives to Jesus. Our lives are in His hands. It can be hard not to be self-reliant, but we cannot live a surrendered life with that mindset. We must submit to Jesus if we want true freedom.2 Corinthians 9:8 “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.” James 4:10 “Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.” Luke 9:23 “Then He said to them all, if anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.”**Bonus passage for your consideration: Luke 14:25-32

We're discussing pride and how it can harm our lives. God hates pride. Let's discuss what it is and how to eliminate it!Proverbs 16:18 – Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall.Proverbs 29:23 “A man’s pride will bring him low, but the humble in spirit will retain honor.”

Welcome to 2026!! Happy New Year! On this episode, we're talking about letting go of guilt and shame. Our past does not define us. Our mistakes don't define us. If we repent for our sins and change our ways, we are made new in Christ. Scriptures: Psalms 25:3, Acts 3:19, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Romans 8:1

We're talking about rediscovering our identities in Christ rather than in trauma, achievements, relationships, or fear. The world hands us labels, but God gives us identity.Scriptures of the week: 1 Peter 2:9,  Ephesians 2:10, Psalms 139:14Challenge: When you meet someone new, who do you say you are?

God asked me to start two new businesses that scared me—but I chose to obey anyway. In this episode, I share how I learned to trust Him, move forward afraid, and walk boldly into what He’s called me to do. If God is tugging on your heart to start something new, this episode will encourage you to step out in faith and do it scared.

In this deeply personal and healing-filled episode, we begin the real work of mending the heart after trauma, disappointment, heartbreak, and seasons that break us down to the core. This conversation is raw, honest, and led by the Holy Spirit as I share a part of my journey I’ve never spoken about publicly.In 2025, I walked through one of the darkest seasons of my life — losing my home, facing painful challenges in my marriage, and wrestling with suicidal thoughts as the weight of everything felt too heavy to carry. I was empty, shattered, and unsure if I had anything left to give.But it was in that broken place that God began the rebuilding.It was in the emptiness that He began to fill me — not with the things I thought I needed, but with His strength, His peace, His identity, and His healing.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Pouring Point — a Christ-centered space where beauty, healing, and identity meet the truth of God’s Word. In this opening conversation, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing the real, raw journey behind this podcast… the delays, the fear, the resistance, and the intense adversity that hit me right before launching.In this episode, I reveal how God often allows us to reach the pouring point — the place where we feel empty, stretched, overwhelmed, or uncertain — not to destroy us, but to fill us with something new. What the enemy meant to silence, God used as the very catalyst to push me into obedience
