I'm a Pastor & I Couldn't Hear God's Voice for a Season — An Honest Look at Why | Julie Hedenborg | 308 | Prophetic Prayer, Bible Study, Christian Women

I had a season where God felt silent. Even as Pastors, we hit the same hills and valleys you do in your walk with Jesus— so I'm sharing the honest truth because I know some of you are in that exact season right now, wondering if He even hears you.A quick note: I was the guest on this one! I sat down with Julie, host of "Everyday Miracles", for her show — and the conversation was so good, so real, and so needed that I had to bring it home to you too. We talk about what it actually feels like when God goes quiet, what gets in the way of hearing Him, and how to move from "I can't hear Him" to recognizing His voice every day.In this episode, we talk about:Why a season of silence from God isn't a sign of failure or distanceHow to hear God's voice clearly, even when your mind feels loud and busyThe difference between God's voice and your own racing thoughtsHow to discern God's voice using scripture, prayer, and the Holy SpiritSigns God is speaking to you, even when it doesn't feel like a "voice" at allWhat the "still small voice" of God actually sounds like in real lifeHow to pray when God feels distant, and what to do while you waitPractical ways to recognize the whisper of God in your everyday momentsHow prayer journaling can help you track and remember when God speaksWhat it means to feel God's presence again after a dry seasonBiblical discernment — how to know if a thought, impression, or nudge lines up with God's WordWhy "hearing God" doesn't always look the way we expect it toQuick answers if you're searching for this right now:Why can't I hear God? Most of the time it's not about distance from Him — it's about noise, timing, or expectations of what His voice "should" sound like. We unpack this in detail in the episode.How do I know if it's God's voice? We talk through practical, biblical ways to test what you're hearing against scripture and the character of God — not just a feeling.What if I've prayed and heard nothing? You are not alone, and it doesn't mean God has gone silent forever. This episode walks through exactly what to do in that waiting season.This was a guest-host episode — full credit to Julie Hedenborg and the "Everyday Miracles" podcast for having me on and letting me share this conversation here with you too.Resources mentioned in this episode:5-Day Hear God Email Series — Start hearing God's voice in 5 days, free → https://heargodseries.subscribepage.io30-Day Hearing God's Voice Devotional — Ready to hear God every single day → https://a.co/d/0bIBXDTjWork With Me — Podcasting help and coaching → jen@javawithjenpodcast.comEveryday Miracles Podcast — Go check out Julie's show → https://www.youtube.com/@everydaymiraclespodcast1395

You Are NOT Failing: How to Step Into Your Calling When You're Scared | 305 | Kathryn May (Kingdom Business, Hearing God's Voice)

HOST SWAP: Enjoy this interview where I was the guest on Kathryn May's podcast "Free to Lead", where we discussed following God into obedience even when you're scared. It may feel like failure, but it's probably radical obedience. The "Next Best Step" Strategy to Finding Your CallingMany of us feel stuck because we are waiting for a clear map, but God often reveals the path one step at a time. In this episode, we break down why fear keeps us paralyzed and how to move from waiting to taking the immediate next step in your purpose.Key Talking Points & Main Themes:Overcoming Fear and Inaction: Fear is the primary barrier to your purpose. We discuss why many of us "idolize clarity" as a way to avoid the risks of taking action, and how the parable of the talents reminds us to steward our gifts rather than bury them.Taking the Next Best Step: • You don't need a ten-year plan to start. Jenilee shares her experience starting a podcast without a traditional platform, trusting God to order her steps as she moved.• Podcasting as Ministry and Business: How to use media to multiply your message. We discuss how a podcast can serve as an outlet for your calling, reach a global audience, and provide opportunities for authors and speakers to make an impact.• Hearing God's Voice Daily: Discover how to discern God's voice in everyday life. We discuss why hearing Him is often a process of learning to recognize His gentle promptings through conversation and asking questions.• The Power of Your "Yes": Stepping into your calling requires saying "yes" to God before you feel ready. Learn how consistent, small acts of obedience lead to doors opening that you never could have opened yourself.• Boundaries for Spiritual Freedom: How to prioritize family, ministry, and business. We explore setting boundaries as a way to find alignment and freedom rather than burnout.• Impact Over Income: Why focusing on Kingdom impact is the most reliable way to build a sustainable life and business. Learn how to trust that God will provide when you focus on serving others.Listen to Kathryn's Podcast: "Free To Lead"https://open.spotify.com/show/09jh1l4XVSS1vVTtB1Aq1Q?si=0057a2b9c6c34e76Start hearing God’s voice in 5 days: ⁠https://www.subscribepage.io/HearGodSeries⁠Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to Java With Jen!
