Episode When You’re Overthinking the Next Right Step
Today’s Scripture: Deuteronomy 30:11–14
What if the next faithful step isn’t as far away as it feels? When fear and uncertainty take over, we can turn discernment into an exhausting search for perfect clarity. But Scripture offers a more grounded way forward: God’s wisdom is often nearer than we think.
You’ll learn:
