- God gives us opportunity to point to Him, to be part of what He’s doing in the world. Let’s lean in and act on those opportunities, those nudges on our hearts - and in turn, make an eternal impact.
In today's episode of She Lives Purposefully, I'm sharing two simple stories from motherhood that deeply encouraged my own faith.
This episode is an encouragement to listen when the Holy Spirit nudges you, to plant seeds of faith wherever God has placed you, and to remember that making an eternal impact often begins in ordinary, everyday conversations.
Whether your mission field is motherhood, your workplace, your friendships, or your community, God has given you opportunities to point people to Him.
Scriptures Mentioned:
1 Corinthians 3:6–7 — We plant and water, but God gives the growth.
Matthew 9:37 — "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few."

Today, I share a story as a Christian mom of answered prayer with my toddler - a small, silly prayer answered almost immediately TWICE in a row.
That small moment became a bigger conversation: God hears you.
It also showed me lies that I was believing about prayer, even as a Bible believing, Christian woman.
We dive into this mini testimony AND Scripture that tells us that God hears, He is near, and He answers, even if not always how we expect.

Ever caught yourself thinking, "God, why choose me? She's more qualified. She's been walking with You longer. She has the platform, the gifts, the put-together life — not me."
Today we're sitting with Moses in Exodus 3-4, where he asked God that exact question... and God's answer wasn't a list of Moses' qualifications. It was Himself.

02/07/2026 | 12 mins.You love Jesus—but if you're honest, it can be easy to coast. Maybe you've got the intention but not the follow-through. Maybe you're following through, but your heart's off: it's for the checklist, the self-promotion, the feeling instead of for Him. In this episode, we're sitting in 1 Corinthians and asking the uncomfortable-but-good question: Am I running this race to obtain the prize, or just living the Christian life aimlessly?
Paul says runners run to get the prize, so run in a way that wins it and a couple chapters later, whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
I share the simple rhythm my husband and I started and the honest self-examination that followed: Am I running with intention, discipline, and determination —or lackadaisically, only when it's convenient, or worse, for myself?
We talk about where "running to win" actually shows up in ordinary life.
