The aim of this podcast is to encourage you to fully engage with your 'Here and Now'. There is daily bread available for us. In a world that calls us to strive to get over today and quickly onto tomorrow let's be people who engage with what is on offer 'Here and Now'.
Don't be deceived - the process of living out our God given identity as a Son and a Daughter is not an easy one! However, Jesus points us in the right direction by telling us to be child like so that we may inherit the kingdom of God. Woohoo !! Our discussion is based on Matthew 18:1-5 and John 5:19-20.
I recorded this episode on Monday and by Tuesday the Lord was already healing me so I had to record a quick update on Thursday. I love to be as honest as I can and I am a firm believer that the truth will set us free and that we aren't ever alone. I know that scarcity mindsets, orphan mentalities can often hinder our child likeness which is why I believe the Lord bought it up so it could be dealt with. May you find comfort in knowing that we are all being perfected by our Father.

Episode 10: Here and Now I will trust God's promises w/Praise
We have come to the end of season 1 - WOOHOO & AWH! But do not fret, we are leaving you with a REAL treat. This episode is so so timely and it will no doubt ignite faith in you. In this last episode Sofia is joined by Praise who quit her job without knowing what was next. All Praise knew was that she had to be obedient and follow the path of peace and TRUST. This not only paid off but now Praise gets to encourage us to do the same.
We hope you are left encouraged and feeling brave to do what the Lord is calling you to.
CAN'T WAIT TO SHARE SEASON 2 WITH YOU.

Episode 8: Here and Now I will trust God in the waiting w/Marjorie
Welcome back for another Friday episode! This week Sofia is joined by her friend Marjorie as she was in the midst of packing her bags to go back to Switzerland after 3 years in London.

This episode Sofia is joined by Silas where they discuss the importance of the secret place 'Here & Now'. This is not only an equipping conversation but also an encouraging one.

In addition to this, they share a few observations on what they see God do across their generation!
The Bible passage this conversation is based on is 2 Chronicles 29.
