What do you do when you feel God asking you to move forward, but He doesn't give you the full roadmap?
In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, you'll hear an honest conversation with Sherrika about what it looks like to trust God one step at a time, even when the path feels uncertain. If you've ever questioned whether you're hearing God correctly, struggled with waiting, or wondered why His provision doesn't look the way you expected, this episode will encourage you.
Together, we explore the tension between obedience and control, faith and fear, and trusting God when circumstances seem to be falling apart instead of coming together. Sherrika shares powerful stories of stepping out in faith, launching an event with countless obstacles, navigating seasons of surrender, and learning that God's faithfulness often looks very different than what we imagine.
You'll be reminded that God rarely asks you to understand the entire journey before taking action. More often, He invites you to trust Him with the next step. As Sherrika shares, sometimes the greatest act of faith is simply moving forward with what God has already shown you and trusting Him to reveal the rest in His timing.
In this conversation, you'll discover:
• How to trust God when His direction feels unclear
• Why obedience often requires deeper surrender than expected
• What to do when God's provision doesn't look like what you hoped for
• How to recognize God's voice through relationship and time with Him
• Why waiting for the full plan can keep you stuck
• How worship, prayer, and Scripture sustain you during difficult seasons
• The importance of taking the next faithful step, even when you're unsure
If you're walking through a wilderness season, facing a major decision, or feeling called into something that stretches your faith, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone. God is faithful, even when you cannot see the whole picture. He is present in the unknown, and He will guide you one step at a time.
If this episode encourages you, please share it with a friend who needs this reminder today.

And if you're longing for a chance to slow down, reconnect with God, and find renewal in the middle of your own wilderness season, I'd love to invite you to the Wholeness in the Wilderness Retreat, June 25-28. You can find all the details at PerspectivesIntoPractice.com under the Retreat tab.
