Wilder Whispers Podcast
Wilder Whispers is a reflective Christian podcast about learning to hear God speak in the ordinary moments of everyday life.
Through honest, personal stories from host Shā (Sharon) Wooden - a bug clinging to a windshield in a storm, a pair of Converse shoes arriving at just the right moment, the thunder of forty-foot Hawaiian waves or the quiet rhythm of shoveling snow - each episode uncovers a gentle truth about God, about life, or about ourselves.
Inspired by Elijah's encounter with God in the still small voice, Wilder Whispers reminds us that the Lord is still speaking today-not only through sermons or quiet times, but through the small unnoticed moments woven throughout our days.
These short, reflective episodes invite you to slow down, listen closely, and discover how God can transform the mundane into the miraculous and the secular into sacred.
If you've ever wondered whether God still speaks today, Wilder Whispers will help you begin noticing His voice in your own wild and ordinary days.

First Love: Fan the Flames Again
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sometimes our love for God doesn’t disappear—it simply grows quiet beneath the ashes of a busy life.
In this first episode of the Shaped in the Secret Place series, Shā shares a simple moment beside a wood-burning stove that became a powerful reminder of how easily our first love for God can be buried beneath responsibilities, distractions, and even good things.
Through the imagery of hidden embers and the words of Jesus in Revelation 2, this episode invites us to return to the secret place—the place of intimacy where love for God is rekindled and the fire of devotion begins to burn again.
Because the fire of first love may feel dim… but it isn’t gone.
