In Part 2 of Living Letters: Written by God, we go deeper into the call to live a life that reflects transformation, not just in words, but through actions, character, and daily obedience. This episode challenges you to examine what your life is communicating to others. Are you telling a story of faith, redemption, and purpose?

We explore how God writes His truth on our hearts, shaping us into testimonies that speak even when we’re silent. Through scripture, real-life application, and powerful insight, this episode will encourage you to embrace your identity as a vessel of His message.

You are not random. You are not overlooked.
You are written with intention.

It’s time to live like it.

Every chapter has purpose, even the hard ones.

In this episode, we begin a new series, Living Letters, with a real conversation about what it means to have a life that is written by God.

The highs, the lows, the confusion, the growth; none of it is wasted.

God literally wrote the story of humanity, and we are living within that story. But because we’ve been given free will, we also have the ability to make choices that shape how our story unfolds.

The question becomes: who are you allowing to influence your story?

How can we allow someone who isn’t our Author to edit what God is writing? Whether it’s the enemy, outside voices, or even our own thoughts, not everything deserves a say in who we are becoming.

This is a call to be intentional and to remember who is truly holding the pen.

This episode is a real conversation about what fasting and consecration actually mean. Not for attention or appearance, but for drawing closer to Christ.


We talk about what it looks like to truly deny yourself; stepping away from the things we often run to for comfort and quick dopamine like social media, food, entertainment, constant communication, and more.


Fasting isn’t just about what you give up; it’s about what you make room FOR.


We also share what’s next for the Truthfully Contagious podcast; from outreach initiatives like serving those in need, spending time with the elderly, and showing the tangible love of Jesus; to bringing on faith-filled guests who are producing real fruit.


There’s also a vision to go live! We want to create space for unfiltered, honest conversations where listeners can engage, grow, and hear the truth of Jesus Christ in a real and necessary way.


Thank you for listening and we know the Truth will make you free. 🔥🔥🔥
