Reading Between the Lines

We can be fully persuaded of God's will for our lives.
In today's episode, I talk about my recent revelation concerning this and how being fully persuaded within our spirit is essential to manifesting God's promises into the reality of our daily lives.
Listen in and discover this truth for yourself.

Join me for part two of my conversation with Pastor Chuck Ammons as we discuss  his latest book, Reconstructing Dad: Seeing God Through the Lens of Jesus.
God intended for Israel to be a lighthouse to the rest of the world. Pastor Ammons discusses how what appears to be conditional love was simply that God wanted the world to see through Israel that “if God can do that for you, he can do that for me.”
He also discusses God’s restorative love and rectifying love.

Have you ever wondered why God's promises don't seem to be showing up in your life, even though you're doing everything you believe He asked you to do?
In this episode, I share a personal realization from Romans 4 that challenged my thinking about faith, works, and God's promises. We'll explore how our view of God shapes our expectations and three questions that can help uncover beliefs that may be holding us back.

Do you planting seeds into the kingdom of God but failing to harvest that crop? In Mark 4, Jesus said the kingdom of God works like a farmer does. We plant seed, it grows and ripens and then we harvest it. In today’s episode I look at bringing in our harvest and how praise plays a part in that process.

Imagine what your life might be like if you had all the answers you needed. Sounds impossible, but that’s exactly what God specializes in—the impossible.
In today’s episode, I look at the life of George Washington Carver. He sought the Lord for answers, and God brought them, changing the economic environment of the South in the 1900s.
God has a plan and a purpose for our lives. When we seek him and come into agreement with his Word, we can co-create with him in whatever field of endeavor he has called us to.
Listen in and discover how.

Creativity resides within us all. It's part of our DNA.
Maybe you don't think of yourself as being creative, but you are...you can be, by partnering with God. No matter what field you work in, you can co-create with God to invent something new, or innovate a new process in your industry, or find a new solution to an old problem.
Listen in and discover how you can co-create with God. 

In this episode, I tackle the challenge of unanswered prayer and the disappointment it can bring to faith. I share biblical insight and practical strategies for:
strengthening belief,
aligning your words with God’s promises, and
avoiding doubt that can hinder answers.
You’ll learn how to plant and nurture faith through Scripture, trust God’s process, and remain confident while you wait.

In this episode of Reading Between the Lines, I challenge long-held religious beliefs about money and wealth.
I unpack the difference between the spiritual and natural realms, revealing how faith and provision operate in each. Through biblical insight, I reframe wealth as a tool—not evil—and invites listeners to embrace abundance as part of God’s design to bless others and advance kingdom work.

God never intended for His children to live in lack, sickness, or barely getting by. In this episode, Debra unpacks what it really means to live the abundant life Jesus promised—and why that life is available right now, not just in heaven.
You’ll learn the three key components to thriving with Christ: your words, your beliefs, and your faith. Discover how the words you speak shape your reality, that belief drives your actions, and how faith activates God’s promises in your life.
If you’re ready to stop surviving and start living in God’s fullness, this episode will show you how to align your life with His Word.
