## Resource

What happens when you say “yes” to the Holy Spirit, even when the path ahead doesn’t fully make sense? In this episode of the Anchored with Purpose Podcast, Melissa sits down with Bible App content creator, author, speaker, and soon-to-be podcaster, Thelma Dzwowa, for a conversation full of faith, obedience, divine appointments, and trusting God through every season. From growing up in Zimbabwe, to moving to Australia, to unexpectedly ending up at the YouVersion Beyond a Billion Celebration in Oklahoma City, Thelma shares the incredible “God meets” that shaped her faith journey and ministry. She opens up about taking an 8-month sabbatical to travel and seek God’s direction, overcoming fear and doubt, writing Bible plans and books for women, and learning to trust the Holy Spirit step by step. Melissa and Thelma also talk about: The power of obedience and how one “yes” to God can impact generations How prayer and worship help keep you grounded in faith Why it’s okay if you don’t know how to read the Bible yet The importance of mindset, personal growth, and seeking truth Navigating transitions, career pivots, and new seasons with God Overcoming fear and doubt (“the wicked sisters”) How the Holy Spirit leads us through uncertainty one step at a time This episode is filled with encouragement for the woman who feels stuck, uncertain, or ready for a fresh move of God in her life. 📖 Start building a daily faith routine with the free Anchored with Purpose Faith Journal — designed to help you spend intentional time with God through Scripture, prayer, reflection, and gratitude: https://anchored-with-purpose.kit.com/fb72f69cdf Resources & Links Mentioned Thelma Dzwowa Website: https://www.thelmadzwowa.com/ Upcoming Podcast: Distilled Truth YouVersion Bible App: https://www.the…
