Have you ever felt spiritually stuck, distant from God, or unsure whether what you're hearing is actually his voice? In this second part of my conversation with Diana Marie of Circle Time for the Soul, we get into the heart of discernment and faith journaling, and how putting pen to paper can be one of the most powerful tools for deepening your trust in God. Diana shares the story behind her For the Soul Prayer Journal, born out of one of her hardest and loneliest seasons, and how journaling became the anchor that kept her consistent in prayer and rooted in scripture. We also talk about what it actually looks like to take that first step of faith when you're not yet sure you're hearing God clearly, and why biblical encouragement from a community of believers matters more than we often realize. If scripture feels distant right now or your faith feels like it's running on empty, this episode will remind you that God is closer than you think and his voice is closer than you realize. Remember that journal prompts for each episode can be found in our weekly newsletter! laurentpaperco.com/newsletter   Connect with Diana!

What does it actually look like to build a consistent, daily rhythm with God, and how do those rhythms help you discern his voice more clearly? In this episode, I sit down with Diana Marie, host of the Circle Time for the Soul podcast, to talk about holy habits: what they are, how Jesus modeled them for us, and how simple practices like being in the Word, journaling, and community can anchor your faith in every season. Whether you're just starting out in your faith journey or looking to go deeper in your biblical encouragement, this conversation will meet you right where you are. Diana shares how consistency doesn't mean perfection, how to find a rhythm that fits your season, and how immersing yourself in scripture is the foundation for everything else, including learning to trust what you hear from God. This one is for you if you've been craving more stillness and a deeper connection with God in your everyday life. Connect with Diana!

This week on Hearing God Daily, we're talking about the vulnerability of wanting a deeper faith. We're looking at the temptation to use Scripture more like a self-help book than a doorway to Jesus. We're exploring what it looks like to move from faith as a set of principles to faith as a real relationship through honest biblical encouragement from John 5 and a conversation about the discernment objections that keep us at a safe distance from God. If you're ready to stop managing God from arm's length and start trusting Him with your actual heart, this one is for you. Journal prompts are in the newsletter.

The news is heavy. War, polarization, outrage. How do you hold onto faith when the world feels like it's coming apart? In this final episode of the Quiet Series, we close with a reading from Sarah Clarkson's Reclaiming Quiet and explore what it looks like to trust in God in the middle of the apocalypse. This episode is full of biblical encouragement for the woman who is tired of the noise: tired of the outrage cycles, the fear, the heaviness. We turn to Scripture to ask: does the Christian story have anything real to say about chaos? And the answer is a resounding yes.

Do you feel overwhelmed by everything on your plate, like no matter how hard you try, the things that matter most keep getting pushed to later? In part 2 of my conversation with Alyssa Figgins of Redeem Her Time, we get practical. Alyssa introduces her anchor zone method: a framework rooted in faith and discernment that helps you structure your day around what God is actually calling you to, instead of reacting to whatever comes at you first. She also shares a powerful illustration using oranges and Skittles that will completely shift how you think about capacity. Spoiler: you have more of it than you think. In this episode: What anchor zones are and how to build them into your day Why order determines capacity (the oranges and Skittles illustration) How discernment and trust in God play a role in deciding what your "oranges" are this season Biblical encouragement for women who feel like there is never enough time The connection between intentional structure, faith, and actually hearing God's voice Journal prompts and Scripture to help you reflect on how you're stewarding your time (included in our weekly newsletter! laurentpaperco.com/newsletter) This is part 2 of 2!

Do you find yourself constantly saying "I just don't have time"? What if that feeling wasn't a calendar problem, but a heart problem rooted in faith? In this episode, I'm joined by Lissa Figgins, a scaling strategist and founder of Redeem Her Time, who helps busy Christian women grow their results by multiplying the 24 hours God has given them. Lissa shares the powerful story of how a medical diagnosis became a turning point with God, and walks us through three heart shifts grounded in Scripture that will completely change how you approach your time and your relationship with Him. This conversation is rich with Biblical encouragement for anyone who has ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or too busy to slow down and trust in God. We dig into what the parable of the talents reveals about stewardship, how discernment begins with making space to listen, and why the enemy's number one tactic is keeping you too busy to hear God's voice. Journal prompts included in this episode to help you reflect and respond. This is part 1 of 2! Tune in next week for Lissa's practical anchor zone framework.

Everyone is talking about nervous system regulation right now, and there's real wisdom in it. But what happens when biology becomes the only lens we use to understand our inner life? In this episode we're bringing faith and Scripture into the conversation, because discernment isn't just about calming your body down. It's about learning to trust God with what's underneath. We'll talk about what nervous system insights get right, where they fall short of a biblical view of the whole person, and how practices like journaling and quiet can help you sift through the internal noise that's keeping you from hearing God's voice clearly. We'll look at what Scripture says about renewing your mind, taking every thought captive, and why biblical encouragement for the overwhelmed soul goes deeper than regulation.

Everyone seems to be talking about going “analog” in 2026. Less scrolling, more real life. From crafting and gardening to handwritten letters and in-person gatherings, many people are realizing that constant digital noise is exhausting. But what if this cultural shift is pointing us toward something deeper? In this episode, we explore how the growing desire for an analog lifestyle can become an opportunity to cultivate faith, discernment, and deeper trust in God. Rather than simply unplugging from technology, we can use these quieter rhythms to reconnect with the One our souls were made for. Through Scripture and biblical encouragement, we’ll reflect on how quiet practices like walking, journaling, prayer, and gathering around the table can help us notice God’s presence in everyday life and grow in spiritual discernment. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by noise, distraction, or the pace of modern life, this episode is an invitation to slow down and rediscover the quiet where God often speaks.

This is Part 5 of our Journaling Through Seasons of Transition Series! One of the hardest parts of a transition or wilderness season is the loss of control.

Using the story of the Israelites and Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, we’ll explore what Scripture teaches about humility, trust, and daily surrender. I’ll also walk you through specific journal prompts to help you process your fears honestly, strengthen your faith, and rest in God’s promises as you move forward.

What does the peace of the Holy Spirit actually feel like and how can you use it for discernment in everyday decisions? In this episode, we explore how God uses His peace to guide His people, how to recognize the difference between true peace and false peace, and why the absence of peace can sometimes be just as important when listening for God’s voice. Through Scripture, biblical examples, and personal reflection, this episode offers biblical encouragement for believers who want to grow in faith without forcing clarity or mistaking comfort for God’s leading. If you’ve ever struggled to trust in God when decisions feel unclear, or wondered whether peace is something you can actually grow in over time, this conversation will help ground your discernment in God’s Word rather than pressure or fear. We’ll look at what the Bible says about peace, how it works alongside wisdom, counsel, and prayer, and how God patiently trains us to recognize His guidance. ✨ Journal prompts to help you reflect on this episode and practice discernment are available in the newsletter: you can sign up at laurentpaperco.com/newsletter.

Episode 5 of our New Years Series!  Why do spiritual habits feel so hard to maintain, especially when life gets busy or unpredictable? In this final episode of our New Year series, we talk about how to build spiritual rhythms that actually last. Not through willpower or pressure, but through identity, grace, and the work of the Holy Spirit. Instead of focusing on perfection or productivity, we look at how lasting growth flows out of who God says you are. Using scripture and biblical encouragement, we explore how beliefs about God, yourself, and your identity in Christ shape your habits, your discernment, and your ability to consistently hear God’s voice. This episode will help you move away from guilt-driven routines and toward rhythms rooted in faith and trust in God. You’ll leave with clarity, encouragement, and simple reflection points and journal prompts to help you create Spirit-led practices that fit your real life, and draw you closer to God throughout 2026.

Episode 4 of our New Years Series!  What do you do when you’re seeking God but He feels silent? In this episode, we gently and honestly explore the pain, disappointment, and confusion that can surface when hearing God feels difficult. If you’re wrestling with unanswered prayers, waiting on direction, or struggling to trust God in a season that feels unclear, this conversation is for you.

Episode 3 of our New Years Series!  Busyness and distraction are some of the biggest threats to our spiritual lives and often the reason hearing God’s voice feels so difficult. In this episode, we talk honestly about how busyness and distraction affect our discernment, and why the solution isn’t trying harder, but learning to listen differently in the season you’re actually in. Through Scripture and lived experience, you’ll be encouraged to examine what is truly from God in your schedule, what may need to be laid down, and how God invites you to meet Him in the middle of your everyday responsibilities. This conversation offers biblical encouragement for anyone who feels stretched thin, overwhelmed, or discouraged by the lack of quiet. We’ll explore how faith and trust in God allow us to release unnecessary striving, resist constant noise, and cultivate attentiveness to His voice even when life is full. You’ll also receive practical journal prompts and gentle rhythms to help you discern where God is at work, notice His presence in ordinary moments, and create space for listening without overhauling your life. If you’re longing to grow in discernment, deepen your faith, and reconnect with God in the midst of a busy season, this episode will remind you that friendship with Him is possible right where you are.

Episode 2 of our New Years Series!  In Day 2 of our New Year series, we explore how God speaks and why discernment can feel so challenging, even when we deeply desire closeness with Him. Grounded in Scripture, this episode offers biblical encouragement for anyone who longs to hear God’s voice but feels stuck, distracted, or unsure how to recognize it. We’ll walk through the primary ways God communicates with His people (through Scripture, other believers, inner impressions of the Holy Spirit, dreams and visions, circumstances, and even our God-given desires) and why learning to listen requires both faith and trust in God. You’ll also discover some of the most common blocks that cloud discernment, including distraction, unbelief, unfamiliarity with God’s ways, and the lack of intentional listening rhythms. Throughout the episode, you’ll be invited to slow down with reflective questions you can use as journal prompts designed to help you notice where God may already be speaking and to build confidence in hearing Him personally. If you’ve ever wondered whether God’s voice is really for you, this episode is a reminder that His promises are sure, His Spirit lives within you, and hearing Him is part of the relationship He desires with you. If you’re ready to grow in discernment, deepen your faith, and step into 2026 anchored in Scripture and hope, this episode will encourage you to listen again with expectation.

Episode 1 of our New Years Series!  As we step into a new year, many of us are setting goals rooted in faith, growth, and intentional living. But what if the most important goal for 2026 isn’t something we do, but something we learn to hear? In this episode, we explore why discernment, specifically hearing God’s voice, should be your number one priority this year. Drawing from Scripture, we look at how God speaks through His Word and by His Spirit, why His voice produces lasting fruit, and how learning to listen shapes every other goal we set. You’ll receive biblical encouragement to trust God’s guidance, even when the future feels unclear, and be reminded that intimacy and friendship with God are at the heart of the Christian life. We’ll also unpack common pitfalls Christians face with goal-setting, reflect on how misplaced motivations can affect our spiritual growth, and reframe spiritual disciplines as pathways to relationship rather than religious obligation.

In this episode, we step into the story of Joseph and explore what his life teaches us about discernment, especially when God’s voice feels both unmistakably clear and painfully quiet. Through Scripture in Matthew 1–2 and Luke 2, we reflect on how Joseph learned to trust God through angelic dreams, divine interruption, and seasons of silence. His story offers deep biblical encouragement for anyone longing to hear God, wrestling with uncertainty, or learning what trust in God looks like when obedience feels costly. This episode is an invitation into deeper faith, honest devotions, and thoughtful reflection. You’ll be guided through meaningful journal prompts designed to help you process where God has spoken clearly in your life, and where you may be learning to trust Him without clarity. Together, we’ll look at how God works through both the miraculous and the mundane, reminding us that silence never means absence. If you’re navigating a hard season, seeking spiritual direction, or longing for reassurance through scripture, this episode will meet you with hope, tenderness, and truth. Hi, I'm Jenny Fulford!

What does it really mean to experience God’s presence—in the ordinary moments of your day? In this episode, we explore the life of Brother Lawrence, a 17th-century French monk who found deep connection with God while cooking meals and repairing shoes. His simple, humble practice of turning everyday moments into conversations with God continues to speak powerfully today. I share how this idea has shaped my own spiritual life this summer, especially through a journaling method I call To-Do List Journaling—a simple way to turn your distractions, worries, and tasks into meaningful, grace-filled prayer. You’ll also hear a personal story about how God used a friend to speak into something in my journal, reminding me that His presence meets us right in the middle of real life—even when we feel spiritually scattered or unsure.

Is your summer filled with people, but lacking peace? Whether your days are packed with family, vacations, social events, or just nonstop noise, it can feel impossible to find quiet moments with God.

We’re in week 3 of our summer series on hearing God, and today we’re heading outside. In this episode, we explore how God uses His creation to speak to our hearts, calm our minds, and draw us into deeper connection with Him. We’ll answer two big questions: How does God speak through nature? How can we position ourselves to hear Him more clearly in natural settings? From the biblical foundation of natural law to the practical science of peace through green spaces, this episode is your reminder to slow down, step outside, and listen for God's still, small voice.
