Hearing God Daily | Journal Prompts, Discernment, Trust in God, Biblical Encouragement, Faith, Scripture

Wondering if it’s God’s voice—or just your own thoughts? Feel spiritually disconnected and overwhelmed with the noise of life? Does life feel too busy to sit still, let alone journal or pray? Are you craving a daily, authentic relationship with God—but not sure how to build it? I’m so glad you’re here. This podcast will help you create consistent space to hear God’s voice, deepen your relationship with Him, and grow spiritually and emotionally—without pressure or perfection. Hi, I’m Jenny! I’m a journal-loving Jesus follower who’s been where you are—longing to hear God’s voice but unsure how to make space for it. I’ve battled depression and obsessive thought patterns, wrestled through seasons of doubt, and spent years bouncing between burnout and self-help overload. I knew I wanted a deeper walk with God… but while others made hearing Him seem easy, I struggled to actually hear Him for myself. That’s when I discovered how simple, Spirit-led journaling could create daily rhythms that helped me slow down, listen, and connect with God—right in the middle of ordinary life. Now I’m here to help you do the same. Whether you’re in a life transition, rebuilding your faith rhythms, or just craving spiritual clarity, this podcast will meet you with grace and practical tools to help you move forward. If you’re ready for intentional connection, honest growth, and actually hearing God in your everyday life… grab your journal and let’s dig in.

This episode makes a brief biblical case for eagerly pursuing God's voice, and walks through a simple exercise for hearing Him together in community.

Hearing God's voice was never meant to be a solo endeavor. Listening together and weighing what we hear ag...

In Acts 3, Peter and John walk past a paralyzed man on their way to prayer. Instead of coins, Peter offers healing and reaches out his hand before anything has happened.

This episode isn't about whether God still heals. It's about what made Peter the kind of person who reached out, and why we so often don't.

Scripture points to four things that stood between that man and his miracle: four thin...

In this episode, I walk you through a step-by-step discernment process for resetting your spiritual rhythms using journal prompts, scripture, and prayer to set spiritual goals rooted in an honest look at your heart, not in copying what...

Hearing God, sensing His leading, and feeling His presence look different for each of us, and that is good and glorious. In this episode, we explore what Scripture teaches about how God communicates with His people, and why discernment means learning to recognize His voice in your unique wiring, not someone else's. We walk through the many ways He speaks: through His Word, a still small voice, dreams and visions, commu...

God speaks today, but hearing His voice often comes down to the condition of our hearts, not just our ears. In this episode, we explore what Scripture reveals about hearing God's voice, from Jesus's parables to the moment God's voice thundered from heaven and was heard differently by everyone standing there.

Together we'll look at what discernment actually requires, why faith is the starting point for trus...

We want to hear God’s voice, but so often we agonize over every little thought. Was that God speaking? Or was that just my own thoughts? In this episode, I share how a word of the year has become a gentle way around that anxiety. I also give a glimpse into my summer and how God has spoken to me since we last connected together on this podcast.

Have you ever felt like you have to be completely certain before God will answer you? In this episode we continue our series on James 1, digging into Scripture to ask: what does it actually mean to doubt? We unpack the Greek words behind faith and doubt in this passage, and discover that both are less about intellectual certainty and more about where your trust in God actually rests. Faith in action.

AI is changing our world quicker than any of us realize or are ready for, and it is impacting our relationship with God and ability to hear His voice. AI makes big promises about meeting our needs and making our lives better, but what if our neediness was a gift and not a burden to shrug off as quickly as possible? Through the lens of Wendell Berry's work on community and place, we'll look at how limits and needs are actually part...

This week on Hearing God Daily, we're talking about the vulnerability of wanting a deeper faith. We're looking at the temptation to use Scripture more like a self-help book than a doorway to Jesus. We're exploring what it looks like to move from faith as a set of principles to faith as a real relationship through honest biblical encouragement from John 5 and a conversation about the discernment objections that keep us at a safe dis...

    DISGRACELAND

    DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
