Are you ready to make Bible study a priority? Would you love to be more familiar with the stories and passages in scripture? Do you long to connect with God and strengthen your faith?
Friend, you are in the right place. This podcast will help you understand your Bible, apply verses to your life, and become more confident with the who, where, and why in scripture
Hi, I’m Angie. I’m a pastor and Bible teacher. For years, even though I knew God loved me, I still dealt with defeating doubts about my value and purpose. It wasn’t until I began deeply studying the Bible that I experienced a heart transformation that allowed me to recognize the lies of the enemy that kept me stuck in shame and defeat. Studying scripture allowed me to stand firm on God’s promises that offer peace, joy, hope, and rest. I created a Step By Step Bible study method that teaches you to find life application in one word of scripture, and I will share it with you in these episodes.
If you crave a deep dive into scripture…
Bible study tools you can trust…
And a method designed to equip you to study with confidence…
Then, pull up a seat at our table, open your heart, and prepare to hear God speak directly to you.

Do you ever wonder what God’s plan to “prosper” you really means?
Maybe you’re stepping into the new year with mixed emotions. You feel hopeful in some ways, weary in others. In this episode, Angie shares encouragement from Jeremiah 29:11 to remind you that God’s plans are never about pressure or performance. They’re about peace.
What you’ll hear in this week’s episode
- A fresh look at what “I know the plans I have for you” really means when life doesn’t go as planned
- The difference between the kind of success the world promises and the kind of security only God can give
- Why God’s definition of prosperity (shalom) isn’t about getting more, but becoming whole
- Wisdom from trusted voices like Tony Evans and Charles Spurgeon reminding us that God is always at work, even when we can’t see it
- Angie’s honest story of enrolling in a costly program that felt all wrong in the moment, but how God used it to grow peace and purpose on the other side
- A closing reflection to help you start 2026 trusting the Planner more than the plan
