I'm back! + Creating Intimacy with God

September 21, 2023·44 min·5 clips

Roz opens by welcoming listeners back after a long silence. She says this is her first episode since April and admits she did not really expect to podcast again. She marks the date as September 21 and notes that the year is already three-fourths over. The restart feels unusually personal. She explains that the show exists to hold mental health and Christ together so growth and healing can feel like normal conversation. She keeps the tone close to everyday life rather than polished ministry language. From there, she looks back over the last six months and the break that followed. That pause becomes a way of naming the larger season she has just come through. She says she has reached a place where she is willing to give up what she has if that is what serving the Lord requires. She links that willingness to a healthier perspective. She also connects it to her work as a therapist and to her own mental health struggles. For her, vulnerability is necessary, not optional. She wants listeners to hear what it looks like when someone is still figuring things out in real time. The episode then turns toward creating intimacy with God. She says many believers want that closeness while carrying confusion, fear, and religious pressure. She names the constant questions that can weigh on decisions about events, work, and starting new things. That kind of uncertainty is presented as part of the spiritual and emotional grind. She frames the need for rechecking, refilling, and recalibrating as part of healthy faith. The close is plain and warm, with a note that she had shut down her emails, website, and everything else during the break. She invites listeners to find her on Instagram, send a DM, and keep walking with the show.
