Grace in the Cracks I Jules4Jesus

You promised God, “Never again.”And then… you did it again.
So now what?
Do you withdraw?Punish yourself?Try to earn your way back?
In this episode of Jules4Jesus, we talk honestly about what happens after we sin — even after we’ve given our lives to Christ.
Because Scripture doesn’t say what many of us assume it says.
📖 We look at:
Romans 6 & 8 — “There is now no condemnation”
1 John 1 — why claiming sinlessness shuts the door to grace
2 Corinthians 7 — the difference between godly sorrow and worldly shame
Why repentance is turning, not punishing
And how God works gold into the cracks instead of throwing the pottery away
This is not about excusing sin.It’s about understanding grace.
If you’ve ever felt disappointed in yourself spiritually…this one is for you.
Grace doesn’t disappear when you fail.It meets you in the cracks.
💬 Let’s talk:
Have you ever struggled with withdrawing from God after messing up?Tell me in the comments — what verse anchors you when condemnation creeps in?
 

The Idols We Call “Normal” I Why God Rejects Mixtures I Jules4Jesus Podcast

Most of us would say, “I don’t worship idols.”We’re not bowing to statues or chasing false gods.
And yet… idolatry didn’t disappear.It just became subtle. Respectable. Normal.
In this episode of the Jules4Jesus Podcast, we talk about the idols we rarely recognise —image, control, success, children, self-improvement —and why God is very clear in Scripture that He does not accept mixtures.
Using a moment from 2 Samuel 6, we look at the surprising symbolism of raisin cakes and date cakes, Michal’s reaction to David’s worship, and what it reveals about divided devotion.
This is not a sermon.It’s an honest, coffee-on-the-couch conversation about faith, February fatigue, and the quiet ways we add God into the mix instead of letting Him be Lord.
🎧 If you’ve ever felt stuck between devotion and control…If “new year, new me” is already wearing thin…If you want to read Scripture more deeply and honestly…
This episode is for you.
Not everything that looks good belongs at the centre.Date cake or raisin cake.No mixtures.

Clarity And the Obedience That Follows I Jules4Jesus Podcast

Have you ever prayed for clarity —and when clarity came, it didn’t feel like peace?
It felt like sadness.Like something breaking open.Like realising that what you now know to be trueis not what you wanted it to be.
In this episode of the Jules4Jesus Podcast, we talk honestly about: Why clarity can feel painful instead of comforting; How God’s Word brings truth without condemnation; The difference between conviction and condemnation; Why obedience sometimes feels like loss before it feels like freedom; How to walk in obedience without wounding hearts and how to carry truth with the character of Jesus
This conversation is for you if:✨ You’ve been asking God for clarity✨ Obedience feels costly right now✨ You’re sitting with sadness after hearing God clearly✨ You don’t yet know how to live out what God has shown you

Daily Manna: Why Your Soul Can't Live on Leftovers I Jules4Jesus Podcast

Have you ever woken up already tired —not because you slept badly, but because the day got to you before you even got out of bed?
If you’ve ever doom-scrolled your way into a rushed, unsettled morning… this episode is for you.
In Daily Manna: Why Your Soul Can’t Live on Leftovers, we talk about why God designed us for daily spiritual nourishment, why morning matters, and how meeting God before the day meets you can bring peace, clarity, and grounding — even when life feels full and demanding.
This is not about perfection, long routines, or religious pressure.It’s about fresh provision for today, not living on yesterday’s strength.
In this episode, we explore:
Why Scripture speaks about daily manna and why it couldn’t be stored
What it really means to “eat” the Word, not just read it
How the Bible connects morning time with God to clarity, discernment, and peace
Why clearing yesterday’s ashes matters before lighting today’s fire
How small, faithful beginnings can grow into a steady rhythm with God
If you’re tired, distracted, overwhelmed, or quietly longing for a more grounded start to your day — you’re not alone.
Grab your coffee.Take a breath.Let’s talk about meeting God in ordinary mornings and faithful beginnings.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Stop Reopening Wounds That Already Healed I Jules4Jesus Podcast

Some wounds heal…but the memory of them can still ache if we’re not careful.
In this episode of Jules4Jesus, we explore the difference between open wounds and scars — and why revisiting old pain, rehashing old stories, or staying in negative spaces can quietly undo healing that has already taken place.
Using reflections drawn from ancient wisdom texts and lived experience, this episode looks at:
how healed places can still be vulnerable
why certain conversations and environments reopen old wounds
how to honour your past without living in it
why being mindful of who you spend your time with matters
and how to choose forward movement instead of emotional backsliding
This is a gentle, honest conversation for anyone who has:
been deeply hurt
done the work of healing
and wants to protect that healing going forward

Why Obedience Sometimes Feels Like Loss I Jules4Jesus Podcast

You thought this season would look different.You prayed.You obeyed.And yet… here you are.
In this episode, we sit with a hard but honest truth:obedience doesn’t always feel rewarding — at least not immediately.
Using the picture of two baskets of figs, this conversation unpacks what it means when God calls you into something that feels uncomfortable, misunderstood, or even unfair — and why not every good thing looks good at first.
This is for you if:
You followed God and expected relief… but got resistance
You’re wondering whether you misheard Him
You’re tired of pretending that obedience is always easy
There’s no hype here. No “everything happens for a reason” clichés. Just a quiet, grounding reminder that God is still working — even when the fruit hasn’t ripened yet.
🎧 Listen slowly. ☕ Sit with the Scripture. 🤍 Let this meet you where you are.

Trusting God in New Seasons I Jules4Jesus Podcast

Life doesn’t always fall apart when a season changes.Sometimes it just feels… tender.
In this episode, I share what it looks like to step into a new season — one that carries sadness, weight, and quiet adjustment — without panic, without pretending, and without trying to manage everything into submission.
This week, my eldest son left home to start university.And while nothing is “wrong,” everything is different.
Together, we explore:
why new seasons often make us tired — not from being busy, but from holding on
how our instinct to manage (yes, even buying “one more broom”) can exhaust us
what Scripture teaches us about surrender, obedience, and trust
why trusting God has everything to do with who He is, not how well we cope
and how to move with a season instead of fighting it
Drawing from Jeremiah 38, Isaiah 51, and Job 38, this episode gently reminds us that God sees the whole picture — even the fragile, in-between moments.
If you’re:
entering a new season
leaving one behind
feeling sad but faithful
or learning to trust God in unfamiliar territory
this conversation is for you.
✨ You don’t have to rush the season.✨ You don’t have to master it.✨ You don’t have to manage it perfectly.
You just have to keep walking — with God.

The Scapegoat: Why Are You Still Carrying Guilt That Is Not Yours? I Jules4Jesus Podcast

WHY ARE YOU STILL CARRYING GUILT THAT ISN’T YOURS?
Have you ever found yourself replaying conversations late at night, carrying blame for things you didn’t cause, or feeling responsible for outcomes you couldn’t control?
In this episode, we talk about misplaced guilt — the kind that gets assigned, repeated, and eventually carried quietly long after no one is accusing you anymore.
Using the powerful biblical image of the scapegoat, this conversation explores:
why we take responsibility for other people’s behaviour
how guilt can become a habit rather than a truth
what Scripture really says about blame, freedom, and release
and why Jesus carried what was never meant for you to hold
This episode is for anyone who has been over-explaining, over-functioning, or living with a heaviness that doesn’t belong to them.
If you’ve ever felt like the one who absorbed the tension so others could move on, this message is for you.
Freedom doesn’t come from defending yourself better.It comes from putting things down.
🎧 Listen with intention. Reflect honestly. And choose to live free.

And yet…God meets him with holy bread and a giant’s sword.
