Why Fear Keeps You From Hearing God’s Voice
May 1900:17:59Tap to summarizeIn this honest and practical conversation, Jamie and Donna Winship share one of their earliest experiences of truly listening to God together — right after Jamie received a dream job offer from the State Department while he was still a police officer. What started as a simple career decision became a powerful lesson in hearing God’s voice, stepping out in faith, and discovering that the biggest obstacle to hearing Him isn’t that God isn’t speaking… it’s our fear of what He might ask us to do.They open up about their different fears (provision, safety, what people would think), how projecting worst-case scenarios into the future creates anxiety instead of peace, and why decisions made from fear always lead to conflict while decisions made from God’s peace lead to deeper relationship with Him. You’ll also hear how they learned to ask specific questions, wait for clear answers, and follow God step by step — even when it meant walking away from financial security and heading into the unknown with young children.If you’ve ever felt stuck wondering, “Why can’t I hear God?” or if fear keeps you from stepping into what you sense He’s inviting you into, this video will encourage and equip you. Fear is not a stop sign — it’s an invitation to go deeper with the Lord who is always speaking.

Transcribe →God Still Speaks: How to Hear His Voice Today
May 800:16:58Tap to summarizeIn this heartfelt and insightful conversation, Jamie and Donna Winship explore one of the most important truths in the Bible: the living God speaks.Drawing from Scripture (Psalms, Jeremiah, Isaiah, Habakkuk, Genesis, Hebrews, and more), they contrast the silent idols humans create with the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob — the God who sees, hears, and responds. Donna shares her Jewish upbringing, the deep meaning of the Sh’ma (“Hear, O Israel”), and how that one word could have changed her life. Both Jamie and Donna open up about their first powerful experiences of God communicating with them — one in a movie theater, another through a spiritual vision on a dark walk back to a dorm room.If you’ve ever wondered:- Does God still speak today?- What does “hearing God’s voice” actually mean?- How can I learn to recognize when He’s talking to me?…this video is for you.Whether you grew up with a “silent God” view of Christianity or you’re just beginning to explore faith, Jamie and Donna offer encouragement, biblical truth, and practical hope that the same God who spoke to Abraham still speaks to us.

Transcribe →Why You Can’t Feel Close to God (You’re Already Close)
Apr 200:19:47Tap to summarizeWant to feel closer to God but something always seems to block you? In this powerful conversation, Jamie and Donna Winship unpack why so many believers feel distant from God — even though Christ is in you and the Holy Spirit is always present.

Transcribe →From False Identity to True Self: Why Shame Isn't From God
Mar 2400:20:40Tap to summarizeIn this eye-opening conversation, Jamie & Donna Winship reveal the powerful truth hidden in Genesis: shame is not from God—it's the result of stepping into a false identity built on lies, doubt, and separation from what's true about you and Him.They walk through the Garden story—how Eve moved from living in her God-given true identity to believing deceptions about God's goodness, her worth, and the need to self-protect. This shift created fear, guilt, shame, and conflict—the same patterns many of us experience today from childhood wounds, trauma, comparison, or performance-based living.The good news? God pursues us even in our hiding. He covers our shame (just as He did for Adam and Eve) and invites us to exchange lies for truth through honest confession and listening prayer: "What feels true to you right now? What do You want me to know about that?"Jamie & Donna Winship show how this simple, biblical process leads to healing, peace, and fearless living in your original design—free from self-condemnation and radical individualism.Perfect if you've ever felt "not good enough," ashamed, or stuck in fear.

Transcribe →The Biggest Financial Lie Christians Believe
Mar 1700:22:19Tap to summarizeJamie and Donna Winship share raw, powerful stories from their lives—including losing everything in a market crash, living on $55 with young kids, and experiencing two years of zero income—while God provided in miraculous ways: surprise checks, free food, hidden cash, and more.This isn't about "getting rich" or quick fixes. It's about moving from a scarcity mindset to true connection with God, community, and your God-given identity. Discover why the fear of not having enough money is often deeper (not being enough or God not being enough), how chasing "empire" money can derail your calling, and why the greatest dreams are on the other side of your biggest fears—when you walk through them with Jesus.
