We all have ugly truths about ourselves that we keep hidden from the world; out of fear, and we sometimes even try to hide these truths from ourselves. When we are able to find and cultivate true friendships, the truths we have kept hidden don’t seem so ugly any more. We are able to bring them to the light and encounter Christ’s heart for us throug…

Lent has always been a time in the church where I put a lot of pressure on myself (am I doing enough? sacrificing enough? fasting enough? etc.). This year lent for me started with a BIG event, and has been taking me deeper and deeper. I believe it is good to have a plan for how we hope or envision our lent going, but at the root of it all, FAITH in…

Self help and self development content can truly make an impact on your life. But is that impact always for the best? How often do you read a self help book that reminds you of who you are as a child of God? How often are you instructed to invite and consult your path to success with Jesus when using self help? Shifting from self help to CHRIST hel…

What is consolation? What is desolation? Which are you currently living in? How do you restore your heart? Have you ever fought in spiritual warfare? These questions are answered in this episode of Making Room. We are both physical and spiritual beings, and we often overlook the spiritual side of us, or don't fully understand how to approach the sp…

This summer has been a whirlwind for my family and I. With lots of joyful moments to share, we are finally ready to tell you all about it; and what that process has looked like. I have missed you all and am so grateful to be back and spend this time with you! Thank you for sharing in our family's joys, as well as praying with us through the tough t…

This episode is a talk I gave on a retreat a few weekends ago on the topic of grace. I received a lot a positive feedback and wanted to share with you all. I hope that while you listen to this episode, your hearts are opened to grace in a new way, that you hear at least one thing that inspires you and enlightens you today. May the Lord bless you an…

Easier said than done! If you have ever been hurt or wounded by another, you know that forgiveness can be tough! In this episode I break down some of the lies the devil offers us in order to keep up from forgiving. If he can keep us apart, feeling angry and hatred, than he has the upper hand. My prayer is that as you listen and these lies of reveal…

Have you ever talked to someone who seemed more educated on their faith than you and immediately felt insecure. Have you seen someone who is very involved or reverent in their faith and thought "I'll never be like that..." or "who do they think they are?". I want to open the conversation to what that has been like in my own life, and hopefully insp…

This is a touchy subject that may people shy away from, God has asked me to open the door for sharing and I hope I did it justice. There are many things that people don't want to say or don't know how to say and I share some of those difficult topics as well as some resources that have been truly an amazing blessing in my own life. I hope you enjoy…

I get fired up in this episode about how God wants us to live our lives! Sharing Biblical declarations from God over my life and yours is certainly a reason to get excited! I hope that you kick all the lies about yourself that are holding you back from thriving in God's kingdom to the curb, and ask him to help you move in these truths from Him. I a…

Lent is a time to let go of everything that is not serving and building up the kingdom of God. That can look different for everyone! To voluntarily make sacrifices sounds silly to anyone who hasn't done it before, but when we suffer in the physical there is often fruit in the spiritual.Oleh Marlie Martin

Self love for me was always about how well you love your body, however; I wasn't shown how to do that well. Navigating health, fitness, and well being has become so complicated with so many different programs and is one of the fastest growing industries in our country. It can be extremely overwhelming! You don't have to navigate healthy self love a…

Knowing the TRUTH about our identity is the most important step to cultivating a relationship with Christ, and therefore helps us to cultivate better relationships with those around us. Knowing the power your words will help you navigate the conflicts with others that you face and help you partake in the battle of the two kingdoms.…

Someone once asked me if I had shame.... that seemed like a silly question at the time; but the more I came to understand what shame is and were it comes from the more I began to let myself off the hook. My prayer is that through this episode, you make room to truly see yourself the way that Christ does. That you stop putting yourself down through …

Having a Word of the Year is like having a piece of the puzzle for what the Lord wants your upcoming year to be about and look like. We don't know the whole plan or image, but we get to view it through this lens with the Lord. It is a gift, a journey, and I hope you make room for this journey to unfold in your own life; after listening to how it ha…

I was asked to share my personal testimony and while there are many parts I thought talking about the Holy Spirit was the best place to start since it is essentially the root of where the content of this podcast flows from. After listening to this episode, if you have any questions, go to the Holy Spirit post on my instagram and leave any questions…
