What does real faith look like when obedience feels costly, unclear, and unseen? In this episode of Perspectives into Practice, Jessica sits down with Marchette for an honest conversation about trusting God with your yes—especially when there's no visible benefit, your emotions feel big, and the fear of rejection is loud.
Marchette shares how God has been growing her in faith by inviting her into daily surrender: choosing a walk with God that aligns with Scripture instead of feelings, people-pleasing, or doubt. You'll hear how the story of Esther reframed obedience without guarantees, how Jesus cleansing the temple reminded her that rejection doesn't get to derail the mission, and how God's perspective in Haggai brought hope for small beginnings and life growth when you're tempted to stay stuck looking back.
This episode is full of faith encouragement for everyday walks of life—what it actually looks like to submit your emotions to God in real time. Marchette explains practical surrender as coming to the Father honestly as a daughter: sometimes with long prayers, sometimes with a simple "God, I need You," and sometimes by opening the Word and discovering He meets you right where you are.
If you're wrestling with doubt, wondering if obedience matters, or trying to live a life with God while your feelings fight you, this conversation will remind you: God sees you, He honors your yes, and faith growth happens one surrendered day at a time.
