About this listen
What happens when God asks you to say yes—before you feel ready, certain, or equipped?
In this short, personal episode, Megan Nilsen shares the story behind her family’s adoption journey—a journey marked by years of prayer, hesitation, fasting, and searching God’s Word for clarity. When the answer finally came, it didn’t lead to ease or simplicity—but it did lead to undeniable encounters with God’s presence.
This episode was originally recorded for The Unfolding Short Stories podcast and captures the raw intersection of obedience and uncertainty. Megan reflects on how her yes to adoption reshaped her understanding of love, grace, and identity in Christ—and how God meets us faithfully in the middle of hard callings.
If you’ve ever wrestled with a God-invitation that felt costly, confusing, or overwhelming, this episode will remind you that obedience is not about having all the answers—it’s about trusting the One who calls.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
- Discerning God’s voice through prayer, fasting, and Scripture
- The difference between a clear calling and an easy path
- How God’s presence shows up in unexpected and challenging seasons
- What adoption taught Megan about surrender, love, and identity in Christ
This is an invitation to lean in, listen closely, and trust that when God says go, He goes with you.
