Walking With God in Real Life: Do You Want to Be Well?

What if the question God is asking you isn't, "How are you doing?" but "Do you want to be well?"

In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, my friend Desiree joins me for another honest conversation about physical health, spiritual health, and the quiet ways God invites us into deeper obedience. As she shares her journey through perimenopause, hearing challenges, and learning to care for her body differently, we discover that God's invitation to wholeness reaches far beyond our physical health.

Together, we explore the story of the man at the Pool of Bethesda and Jesus' powerful question, "Do you want to be made well?" We talk about what it means to move beyond simply surviving, how compromise can slowly become a lifestyle, and why obedience often begins with small, daily decisions that shape the direction of our lives.

We also discuss surrendering habits that no longer serve us, learning to recognize what belongs in a previous season, and trusting that God never asks us to release something without leading us toward something better. Whether you're wrestling with your physical health, spiritual growth, anxiety, people-pleasing, or simply feeling stuck, I pray this conversation encourages you to seek God's wisdom and trust His gentle invitation toward true wholeness.

In this episode, we discuss:
- What Jesus meant when He asked, "Do you want to be made well?"
- Physical health, spiritual health, and biblical stewardship
- Obedience over comfort
- Breaking free from survival mode
- Letting go of compromise and unhealthy habits
- Navigating perimenopause with faith
- Renewing your mind through Scripture
- Walking in peace instead of striving
- Recognizing when God is leading you into a new season
- Trusting God's process even when change feels difficult
