Presence over provision: chasing God's heart over His hand
It’s so easy to get caught up in praying for the next thing:, the job, the relationship, the blessing, that we forget to just be with God. What if the real blessing is Him?
On this episode, we discuss the difference between seeking God’s heart versus chasing after His hand, and how that shift changes everything: our peace, our identity, our purpose. If you’ve ever felt stuck, distant, or like your prayers are going unanswered, this episode is a reminder that God isn’t withholding, He’s inviting you closer!

Girl Talk (part II): singleness, standards, & the struggle of comparison with Cassie Murillo
"In my single era" is a comment I hear way too often. As women of God, how can we embrace singleness while we grow and set standards for our future person? How can we navigate the struggle of comparison on social media and when it seems as if God is answering everyone else's prayers, but ours? Cassie Murillo unpacks her journey in finding contentment in singleness, trusting God's timeline, being aware of the standards she holds, and setting boundaries with comparison. I hope you find encouragement through these topics! It is time for us to realize how worthy we are and that God has marvelous plans for us!
Love,
Ruthie

What is our life's purpose?
What are we really called to do? Jesus was clear after He resurrected before ascending to heaven... but sometimes we allow pride or fear to get in the way of stepping into the shared purpose we have as believers. Easter may be over, but our mission is not over yet...

Listen to this when you thought something was from God
We have all been met with this question: But I thought God led me here? But I thought God was going to provide? But I thought God told me they were the one? Whatever "But I thought God _" question you ask yourself, listen in to understand how we get to that point and how to find clarity in this midst of confusion and frustration.
