   God Placed This Dream In You For a Reason

   In this episode, we dive into the reality of walking with a dream that doesn’t seem to be moving, at least not in the way or timing you thought it would. I build on a previous episode about dreams and share what it’s looked like to carry a promise from God, only to find myself in a season of waiting, pruning, and quiet transformation. This episode is for the ones who are still waiting. The ones who feel unseen, stuck, or like they missed something. I talk about the difference between purpose and calling, how to test if your dream is really from God, and the danger of chasing what looks good instead of what’s in His will. For over a year, I prayed and worked and showed up, wondering why the dream God gave me still felt so far away. It wasn’t until I truly surrendered, letting go of control, idols, and even my own timeline, that I began to see the fruit. But before the breakthrough, there was a breaking. And before the testimony, there was a long stretch of obedience with no applause. I also share notes from a recent sermon that lit a fire in me — reminding me that success in the Kingdom looks like faithfulness, not fame. And sometimes, the most powerful move you can make is staying the course when nothing seems to be shifting. If you're in a season where the wait feels heavy, I pray this episode meets you right where you are. You’re not behind, you’re being built. And God is still writing your story. Let’s talk about how to stay rooted, surrendered, and hopeful while you wait for the dream to come alive. Follow Culture Vs.

   Finding Freedom in The Fire

   Welcome to Culture Vs Purpose. In this episode, I open up about a season of unexpected challenges—one that has tested my faith, stretched my obedience, and revealed the deeper work God is doing in my life. Recently, I made the unexpected decision to move back home, a choice I never imagined making but one that God placed on my heart. What I anticipated as a season of purpose quickly became a season of hardship, as past wounds resurfaced and the weight of my upbringing settled heavily on me. I found myself questioning: Why would God bring me back to the very place that once broke me? This episode is about what it means to trust God in the fire—when His promises feel distant, when suffering seems unrelenting, and when faith is tested beyond measure. It’s about believing in His plan even when circumstances feel unbearable and understanding that sometimes, God calls us to return not just to transform our surroundings, but to heal the brokenness within us. If you’ve ever felt like you’re standing in the middle of a trial, uncertain of how God is working, this one is for you. I see you, I hear you, and I feel you. Let's talk about what it means to endure through hardship, embrace obedience even when it's difficult, and hold onto the unshakable truth that God never leaves us—especially in the fire.
