In this episode, I sit down with Kelsey to talk about walking with God in uncomfortable moments. We get honest about the tension between your flesh wanting to stay quiet and the Holy Spirit prompting you to obey. If you have ever felt nervous to post what God is putting on your heart, this conversation is for you. We talk about how to discern conviction versus people pleasing, how to respond with grace when comments turn harsh, and why caring for your temple can be an act of worship instead of an idol. Kelsey also shares what helps her persevere through depression, spiritual attack, and the pressure of being watched. We end with a hope-filled reminder that obedience is often not just for you. God uses it to reach someone else.
