Do You Know Who I Am? Knowing Jesus and Answering His Call

Have you ever stopped to ask yourself—not what other people say about Jesus—but who you say He is? In this episode, I walk through the story of Peter and what his journey teaches us about knowing Jesus for ourselves, hearing His voice, following Him even through our imperfections, and answering His call to share Him with others. Peter boldly declared that Jesus was the Christ, yet his journey also included misunderstanding, fear, denial, and failure. Still, Jesus knew Peter completely, restored him, and gave him an assignment. His story reminds us that genuine faith does not require a flawless life. In This Episode: • Why Jesus asked, “Who do you say that I am?” • What “Hear Him” means for us today • How to recognize God's voice among competing voices • What Peter's failures teach us about grace and restoration • Why genuine faith does not require perfection • How Jesus restored Peter and gave him an assignment • What the Great Commission looks like in everyday life • Simple ways we can share Jesus with others At the heart of this message are four simple reminders: Know Him. Hear Him. Follow Him. Share Him. My prayer is that this conversation encourages you to know Jesus for yourself, listen for His voice, follow Him faithfully, and answer His call in whatever way He has placed before you.

God’s Faithfulness Through Every Season: Psalm 37, Part 2

Have you lived long enough to look back and see evidence of God’s faithfulness—even through grief, uncertainty, waiting, and change? In Part 2 of this teaching from Psalm 37, I reflect on David’s testimony: “I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken…” I recorded this episode during one of the most tender seasons of my life. As I continue grieving my husband, rebuilding my life, raising our children, and taking one faithful step at a time, God is teaching me that difficult seasons do not erase His faithfulness. We may not understand God’s timing or know how everything will work out, but we can look back and remember the doors He opened, the prayers He answered, and the strength He gave us when we did not know how we would make it. In This Episode: • How your life experience becomes evidence of God’s faithfulness • Trusting God through grief, uncertainty, and unanswered questions • Why God’s Word must move from our minds into our hearts • What it means to wait faithfully without standing still • Why you cannot measure God’s faithfulness by someone else’s highlight reel • Choosing peace over comparison and the appearance of success • Remembering that your present uncertainty does not erase God’s past faithfulness • A heartfelt prayer for provision, healing, direction, families, and those who are still waiting If you cannot see what God is doing ahead of you, turn around for a moment and remember what He has already done behind you. I pray this episode reminds you that God has not forgotten you. He is still your strength, your help, and your refuge in times of trouble.

What Love Really Looks Like | 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. Explained

In this episode, I talk about love—what it really is, what it isn’t, and how God defines it through 1 Corinthians 13:4–8. I share my own reflections on patience, endurance, boundaries, self-worth, and the difference between real love and the unhealthy patterns we sometimes normalize in relationships, family, and even within ourselves.

I share my own experience with fear and anxiety, including a season where it came on heavily during one of the most challenging times in my life.

Why Forgiveness Is So Hard | How to Let Go Without Bitterness

Forgiveness Isn’t Easy | How to Let Go Without Losing Yourself (with Sherisse Pritchet) In this episode, I sit down with Sherisse Pritchet for an honest conversation about forgiveness—what it really looks like, why it’s so difficult, and what it takes to walk it out in real life. We talk about the tension between pain and obedience, and how easy it is to hold on to hurt without even realizing how deeply it’s affecting your heart. As we unpack this, I reflect on what forgiveness requires—not pretending it didn’t happen, not minimizing the pain—but choosing to release what we were never meant to carry. Forgiveness is not about the other person. It’s about your freedom. If you’ve ever struggled with letting go, setting boundaries, or trying to move forward without becoming hardened, this conversation will meet you right where you are. God doesn’t ask us to carry bitterness. He leads us into freedom. Key Insights: Why forgiveness is harder than we admit The difference between forgiveness and reconciliation Letting go without denying your pain How unforgiveness quietly affects your heart Choosing freedom over offense If this message blessed you, share it with someone who may need it. Until next time, God bless you. Dr. Deborah Owens Glow Up in Grace — Where faith meets the glow-up!
