Why I Started the Podcast

I started The Secret Place podcast in the summer of 2021. I had always wanted to have a podcast, but in my sophomore year of college, I struggled with taking bits of God’s glory for myself. I loved sharing what God was doing in my life, but I also liked taking some attention for myself and not giving it all to God. I knew this was a problem but didn’t fully want to deal with the issue because I felt too busy. I told God that when I had knee surgery, I would deal with it. Well, I had forgotten about that promise and after knee surgery, in January of 2021 God brought it up again and this time, I knew I had to deal with it. 

 

After God broke these chains in my life, I felt free and wanted to tell everyone what God was doing in my life and how he continues to change people and break them free from chains. It was not even a month after this that God kept bringing up starting a podcast. I didn’t feel worthy of that opportunity because of how I just got free from struggling with taking attention from God, but God had made it so clear that this was His calling for me.
