81 | When Obedience Doesn't Pay Off: What God Is Doing Instead
What do you do when you’re doing exactly what God asked… and it doesn’t seem to lead anywhere?
Obedience is often framed as the path to clear results. Growth you can see, progress you can measure, something that “works.” But sometimes, it doesn’t look like anything is happening at all.
Let's talk about:
Why God often meets you after you move, not before
What it looks like when growth is happening internally, not externally
How obedience can strip away control, expectations, and the need for visible results
This episode also marks a transition for Oopsy Daisy. closing out a year of consistent obedience and stepping into what comes next. Tune in to learn more!

80 | Why You Can't Hear From God (Even When You're Really Trying)
Ever sit down with your Bible and feel like nothing really lands? You’re trying to hear from God, but it feels quiet, confusing, or just… off.
In Mark 4, Jesus speaks to the crowds in parables, but explains everything when He is alone with His disciples. That raises a hard question.
What if the issue is not that God is not speaking? What if we're not actually alone with Him??
In this episode, we look at how internal noise, busy thoughts, and the need for quick answers can keep us from hearing God clearly.
Let's chat about:
Why Scripture can feel confusing or dry, even when you are trying
The difference between reading the Word and hearing from God
How mental noise and constant input crowd out real connection
If hearing God has felt harder than it should, this will help you rethink what might be getting in the way.Find more from Amanda!

79 | You're Not The Main Character:The Real Reason You Take Everything Personally
Ever notice how quickly things start to feel personal? Someone’s quiet and it seems like it must be about you. Something doesn’t work out and your mind goes straight to what's wrong with you. Someone else is winning and suddenly you feel behind.
This goes deeper than sensitivity.
When everything gets filtered through us, it starts to distort how we see our lives, our relationships, and even Scripture.
This episode unpacks what’s really going on and what shifts when we stop making everything about us and start seeing what God is actually doing.
We chat about:
How “main character thinking” quietly shapes how we read the Bible and interpret everyday moments
The real reason we take things so personally (and why it leads to confusion, insecurity, and offense)
What changes when our focus shifts off ourselves and back to God
