13: Searching for Acceptance and Finding Spiritual Belonging

You have spent years searching for acceptance from other people, and you are still quietly wondering whether you belong anywhere. This episode is for the woman who wants a sense of belonging she doesn’t have to earn, and I share where I found mine.

I take the guest chair and share my testimony, a pilgrimage of faith that began with a little girl who loved church and couldn’t say why. We talk about how the longing to be known shapes our choices long before we ask who God created us to be, and what Psalm 139 and John 15:4 say about identity in Christ and abiding in Christ.

As part of our month on being courageously called, this episode closes with three questions to help you look back over your own story and see God’s faithfulness where you couldn’t see it then. Your pilgrimage isn’t finished, and neither is mine.
