Wow. Think of it. After all, you have questions! You’ve been known to have a problem or two. It would be great if you could find the answers you’re looking for. You crack open that Bible a couple of times but just as quickly shut it. You want to love digging into Scripture. Instead, you find it intimidating, judgmental, and maybe even unbelievable. Let’s change that. Hi! I’m Anna Moore Bradfield, an award-winning and bestselling author, Christian speaker, and facilitator of workshops and events. I’ve been where you are. Plenty of times. I’ve questioned if God cared at all about what I was going through. Did he even have a plan for my life? When I got up the guts to tell him to his face, I found that he had very broad shoulders and that he could take anything I dished out. Then he began revealing himself to me. In this podcast, we’ll share: • Stories from the Bible that reveal God’s interactions with His people, confirming His desire for intimate, consistent, and loving relationships. • Stories from everyday life that testify to…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-21T14:21:47.747384+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/god-s-power-stories-finding-god-s-lead-how-god-shows-up-bible-and-everyday-life-stories-approaching-god-with-boldness-7102580"},"episode":{"title":"072 | What if God Asked You to Step Out Before You Felt Ready?

In this vulnerable and inspiring episode, I launch a new mini-series called Faith Through Fiction, pulling back the curtain on my biblical fiction novels and the faith journey that almost never happened. After years of writing, revising, getting an agent, and being on the verge of traditional publication, I walked away from it all—paralyzed by questions like, \"What makes you think you have the talent?\" and \"What if you offend the church?\" But God wasn't done. When the scenes kept replaying, when new characters demanded their stories be told, I finally surrendered with a simple prayer: \"I'm going to write and see what you do with it.\" This episode introduces Legacy, the book about Nitzevet (King David's mother), and reveals how writing her story of impossible choices and willing obedience became my own journey of stepping out before feeling ready. If you've ever wondered whether your \"yes\" is enough when you don't feel qualified, this episode will remind you that God calls imperfect hearts long before they feel ready. Key Takeaways 1. The Stories God Gives You Won't Leave You Alone—That's Your Calling For years after abandoning my first manuscript, I couldn't escape the biblical narratives playing in my mind. Scenes replayed, new characters emerged, dialogue formed—all evidence that this calling wasn't going away. The episode reveals that when God plants something in you, it doesn't just disappear because you walk away from it. The persistent return of these stories was God's gentle but firm reminder of His plan. Listeners learn that the ideas, dreams, or callings that keep resurfacing—despite your attempts to dismiss them—may be exactly what God i…","meta_description":"What happens when the stories God gives you won't leave you alone—but fear convinces you you're not qualified to tell them?
