As a prophetic mentor, Mariel has dedicated years of her life to equipping people in the spiritual gifts and discipling them in their walk with Jesus.

He wants you to deeply encounter Him, too.

Episode 09: Devin Cordle on Inviting the Lord into Busyness and Creating Margin
Whether social media is your full time job or not, we can all relate to the need for boundaries, work-life balance, and help with busy schedules. Devin shares how God has been inviting her to slow down and say no to things that might not make sense to others. In her pursuit of Jesus, she has found that sometimes the blessing of obedience is intangible. Through taking a step back and creating margin in her life, Devin has found she is more available to experience God's Presence.

06: God's Hidden Hand at Work
2024 started on a really, really low note. After I lost my first client I was left feeling confused and anxious about the future. But after I lost my second client, I could see how the Lord was closing doors and preparing me for what I'm currently doing now. Listen to see how God's hand has been at work in my life in such a beautiful, tangible way.

03: What Really Happened with our Move
After our leap of faith to ATL fell flat, a year later God redeemed our move by bringing us to North Carolina. The transition has been nothing short of a miracle for our family. No job, no house, and no tangible answers for months. Sound familiar? Listen how God redeemed our story in a miraculous way that only He can. For additional context, refer to episode 02: "A Failed Leap of Faith?"

02: A Failed Leap of Faith?
*TRIGGER WARNING*
suicide ideations
In 2022, Paxton and I felt a pull that we needed to transition out of our hometown in Columbus, GA and move to Atlanta. All of the doors were open for this leap of faith... until they weren't. In a painful turn of events, it felt like our leap of faith publicly fell flat.
