God at the Center | Loving the Giver More Than the Gifts (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We pray for God’s blessings, provision, healing, guidance, and open doors—but what happens when the gifts become more important than the Giver? In this episode, Kathy asks a challenging question: If God never gave us another blessing, would He still be enough? This devotional explores what it means to put God at the center of your life, seek His presence before His provision, and love Him for who He is rather than only for what He can do. When Christ becomes our greatest treasure, everything els
Walk Humbly with God | The Strength Found in Surrender (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Humility isn’t weakness—and it doesn’t mean thinking less of yourself. It means recognizing how deeply you need God. In this episode, Kathy explores biblical humility and the freedom that comes when we stop relying solely on ourselves and surrender our plans, decisions, and abilities to God.

Everyone stumbles. Everyone fails. But failure doesn't have to become the end of your story.
