Stop Pretending: use your story, be authentic,mindset on truth,chosen for purpose, intentional living

Let go of people pleasing! Let go of perfection! Live a life you love, live what is true, and love Jesus while doing it. We can use our lives as worship by being authentic. We can let it be easy! Join host, Riley, in conversations about who God is and who we are because when we know the answers to those two questions, our identity is set and our future is whatever we decide we want it to be! This show is for the women who want MORE and are willing to seek truth in order to let God restore every broken regret and use it on mission. Connect with me! I love friends!

Keean asked how many episodes...100. Wow! You haven't failed. It's the end for now. 

Sometimes we have to let go of things we love to make space for something different. This podcast has been the thrill of my life and it has been so much fun, but the time has come to take a break.  

I am trusting that God knows what He is doing! I hope so anyway! haha If I heard Him wrong, whats the worst that can happen? 

I'd love to hear from you...

This episode will answer all of your questions about yoga..is it ok for Christians?  What is the benefit? Is it only for those slow peaceful type folk?  

Okay actually this episode will probably answer 1 of your questions about yoga..maybe. But it will be great- you'll love it! 

This is a fun conversation to get some insight into all of that.  Has God ever invited you to come to Him without words? What?!? No agenda. Just be with Hi...

Is this a New Year New You or a New Year Same Me?  Do you plan a word of the year? Do you set goals? Do you refrain from all of it and just go about your life?  

The fresh start is an invitation to be who you want to be and to self check where you are headed.  Our goals don’t have to give us a complete makeover but they can give us permission to move toward who we want to be. 

A word of the year can give us alignment and momentum t...

Connection is absolutely the best thing! It breathes new life in where things are stale and stagnant. Connection with others creates energy that is contagious but connection with God literally gives you new life!

What is love anyway? I mean I get it, all you need is love. But I'm trying!  Am I doing it right?  How do I love with a pure motive exactly?? 

Balance comes with we follow God's prescription for this.

Hey hey sister! Today is so much fun! We are taking a deep dive into Psalm 1 and anything else I randomly through in the convo, like throwing plates and walking through Food Lion with a hood over my face. Ya never know! 

Do you ever read the Bible and see the words jumping off the page?  We're playing in some verses today to see how they jump and its super fun.  

We can't adulterate the Bible.  It can hold its own, I'm confident.  ...

What gives us identity? Our identity is defined by the love of Jesus and everything else flows from our communion with him. 

What defines our worship to God? Is it in our gifts?  Our actions worship God when done in authenticity, coming out of a place of knowing Him and knowing His voice. 

 

We spend too much time not liking ourselves! We put so much effort into improving our flaws when we could be using our gifts effectively and e...
