When God writes your love story, it looks different from the world’s version — and it’s worth the wait.

In today’s episode of In Totality, I sit down with two of my dear friends, a married couple whose very first kiss was at the altar on their wedding day. We talk about their individual journeys of salvation, the seasons of preparation God led them through, and the faith it took to trust Him every step of the way.

Their story is powerful, but it’s important to remember: while this may not be exactly what God is specifically calling you to do in your waiting season, He is calling all of us to live lives of obedience, faith, and consecration.

We dive deep into what it means to honor God not just in dating, but in every part of our walk with Christ. If you’ve ever wondered if it’s still possible to live set apart in relationships today, this conversation will remind you: it is, and it’s beautiful.

Whether you’re single, dating, or already married, I pray this episode encourages you to trust God's timing, obey His leading, and believe that His plans for you are better than anything you could write on your own.

When my son was diagnosed with autism at age two—and later with Fragile X syndrome—I entered a kind of grief I wasn’t prepared for. It wasn’t loud or dramatic. It was quiet, slow, and deeply sacred. It was the grief of letting go of the life I imagined and learning to embrace the one God was writing.

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the pain, surrender, and beauty that come with raising a child with special needs while clinging to faith in Jesus. I talk about the silent ache of broken expectations, the sacredness of honest lament, and the unexpected closeness of God in the middle of it all.

Grief doesn’t always come from death—it often comes from the loss of an idea, a dream, or a version of life we thought we’d have. But even there, God is present. Even in our most unspoken sorrows, He is faithful. And even when healing doesn’t look the way we hoped, He still gets the glory.

If you’ve ever carried a grief you didn’t choose, or wrestled with faith in the face of life’s hardest questions, this episode is for you. May it remind you that you’re not alone—and that hope still lives here, too.

In this episode of In Totality, I’m talking about what it means to truly live as a sacrifice for God.

As Christians, we love the idea of purpose, calling, and blessing, but what about surrender? What about the moments when obedience costs you relationships, opportunities, reputation—or comfort? Scripture tells us to offer our lives as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God… but are we really willing to endure suffering and persecution for His name’s sake?

Whether your walk with Christ means walking away from what’s easy, what’s popular, or what makes sense to the world — it’s worth it! If you’ve ever wrestled with obedience when it’s hard, or felt the weight of standing firm in your faith, this conversation is for you!

Tune in and be reminded: He is worthy of it all!
