Have you ever felt like you’re just sitting in the waiting room of life, wondering what God wants you to do next? You pray, you listen, you wait—but the silence feels heavy. Maybe you’re desperate for clarity, asking, “Lord, just tell me what to do, and I’ll do it!”

In this heartfelt episode of Finding Faith Above, Shelby shares a personal conversation she had with her 19-year-old son about following God’s direction—even when it isn’t clear. Together, they wrestle with that deep longing to hear from Him, and the frustration that comes when God seems quiet. But through Scripture and reflection, Shelby reminds us that sometimes the waiting room isn’t punishment—it’s purpose.

You’ll hear how God’s consistency, faithfulness, and unchanging nature mean you’re never truly stuck or forgotten. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever—and even when you can’t hear His voice, He is still working in your life.

If you’ve been wondering where God is leading you, this episode will help you rest in His presence, trust His timing, and find peace knowing that right where you are might be exactly where He wants you to be.

✨ Listen in and be reminded: God hasn’t forgotten you in the waiting—He’s preparing your heart for what’s next.

So… what is the gospel, really?

If you came from a background like mine, that word might make you cringe a little. “The gospel” sounded like rules, perfection, checklists, and a whole lot of pressure to measure up. But friend, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Today, we’re breaking down what the gospel actually means according to the Bible—no religion, no fluff, just the real good news of Jesus Christ. This is the truth that sets us free, the message that changes everything, and the reminder that you don’t have to be “enough”… because He already is.

Inside this episode: ✨ What the word gospel actually means (and why it’s called “good news”) ✨ Where you’ll find the gospel all throughout the Bible—from Genesis to Revelation ✨ Why the gospel isn’t about you being perfect, but about what Jesus already did for you ✨ How understanding this truth can transform how you see yourself, your past, and your faith

If you’ve ever wondered, “What does it really mean to be saved?” or felt unsure about how Jesus’ sacrifice actually changes your life—this episode is for you.
