About emptyglasses

Welcome to Empty Glasses! I’m Bella, a girl in her twenties with a heart for storytelling. I believe there’s so much power in getting real, raw, and honest about who we are, where we’ve come from and what we’ve learned along the way and from my experience, many of those conversations have happened while communing around a table, sipping and dining together. That’s my heart behind each episode — to tell real stories, by real people. I invite you to be a part of these conversations, so grab your drink of choice and join us at the table. There’s a seat for you here. IG: @emptyglassespod

   What If You’re Not Supposed to Have It All Together? | feat. Christine + Strawberry Juice

   Hi friends! In this week’s episode, I sit down with my friend Christine for a conversation on patience, surrender, and the beauty of being human. We talk about seasons of waiting, disappointment, and burnout, and how those very places can become where God meets us most deeply. Christine shares her journey through missions, uncertainty, and learning to hear God’s voice, as well as the ways He’s been gently undoing perfectionism, performance, and self-reliance in her life. Together, we discuss what it looks like to stop striving, to let your shoulders down, and to trust that you don’t have to have it all together to be fully known and loved by God. I pray you’re encouraged by our conversation because I know I was.

   The “Good Christian Girl” I Tried So Hard to Be (My Story Pt. 2) | An Unfiltered Conversation Feat. Your EGP Host + A Poppi

   Hey friends! In this part two episode, I share the rest of my story, picking up where I left off in the episode I released last week. In part one, I shared a bit of my upbringing, into my college years, and then began sharing how COVID impacted my anxiety, and had me wrestling through panic attacks and crippling fear for the second half of my college career. I found freedom, though, and true relationship with Jesus during my time with the Circuit Riders. After graduating from college in the Spring of 2021, I moved out to California for a six month DTS (Discipleship Training School). During that season, I grew in hearing the Lord’s voice, my Biblical literacy, and Evangelism. I share what I’ve been up to since returning home from that life-changing time with CR. From leading a weekly prayer/Bible study for a season, dating then breaking up with then marrying my the love of my life, Noah, on Pentecost (listen to Episode 6 to hear our story), and now working full-time as a graphic designer. This might not be how I “planned” my life, but life with Jesus and walking hand in hand with Him, following His plan is and has been so much greater than any plan I could’ve mustered up on my own. I’ve learned the power in surrendering my plans to The Lord, even when it’s hard, and have seen Him be faithful through every single season. He’s so good, and, if nothing else, I pray you see Him through my story and come to experience His great love for you. I’m so grateful you’re here and pray this stirs your faith in some way <3 Connect with me @_youngbellarose If this encouraged you in any way, consider sharing with a friend, leaving a rating/review or letting me know in the comments.

   The “Good Christian Girl” I Tried So Hard to Be (My Story Pt. 1) | An Unfiltered Conversation Feat. Your EGP Host + A Poppi

   In this week’s episode, you get to hear from me in an unfiltered chat about my story and the things the Lord has taught me along the way. I grew up in a legalistic, performance-based faith community as an extremely introverted, shy girl, claiming that as my identity for so long. After experiencing some loss and a breakup in late high school, I decided from then on to plan my life to a T and entered my college years as an independent “boss babe”, dreaming of climbing the corporate ladder and living a fast-paced life, which now, couldn’t be further from what I want. Those years were primitive for my faith, as I joined CRU (Campus Crusades for Christ), built community in and around my college, and attended 21 Project, a two-week leadership training at the YWAM (Youth With A Mission) base in Kona, Hawaii. That experience pushed me out of my comfort zone and into a few years of extensive travel, from studying abroad in Italy to going on tour with The Circuit Riders across America and beyond. Now married to the love of my life and working full time, I share in this part one of a two-part series on my story, just how faithful The Lord has been. There are so many stories I didn’t have time to share, but I’ve been able to see God in and through every experience, good and bad, he’s allowed me to walk through up to this point, and I hope hearing my story encourages you to look back and see the same in yours. He’s such a good Father and has such good plans for us, His children. I pray this stirs your faith and hope you’ll stay tuned for part two next week.
