Growing Through It
Welcome to the "Growing Through It" podcast, where your host, Lyla Anne, is dedicated to guiding listeners towards a deeper connection with God. More than just a title, "Growing Through It" is an understanding that every experience we endure is purposeful. We firmly believe that in the eyes of the Lord, nothing is without meaning or value.
Grounded in the teachings of the Word, this podcast aims to accompany listeners whether they're new to their faith journey or have walked this path for years. Whether you're experiencing life's highs and lows or simply navigating through the routines of everyday life, what matters most to us is that Jesus is leading the way for you.
For those seeking to deepen their connection with God yet feeling uncertain about where or how to begin, this podcast was made just for you. Let’s grow through it together.
Growing Through It
When Following Jesus Gets Lonely | Being Set Apart
Have you ever felt like following Jesus makes you the “weird one” in the room? Like you’re left out of family gatherings, friend groups, or opportunities because of your faith? I’ve been there too.
While reading the Old Testament, I kept coming back to the Levites, the tribe God set apart to serve Him. They didn’t get land like everyone else, but God Himself was their portion. From the outside, it may have looked like they were missing out, but in reality, they had the greatest gift of all: closeness with God.
In this episode, we’ll talk about what that means for us today. The same presence that once rested on the Levites now lives in us through the Holy Spirit. So if you’ve been feeling lonely, misunderstood, or left out because of your faith, remember this: you’re not rejected, you’re chosen. You’re not cast out, you’re set apart.
