    From intellectual atheism in France to discovering a vibrant faith in the US, Stephanie Rousselle of Gospel Spice Ministries shares her remarkable spiritual journey. In a nation where secularism reigns and the growth of Eastern religions and Islam is surprising, Stephanie discusses the unique challenges of sharing the gospel in France and the inspiring revival happening among French Christians today. Her story is a testament to God's personalized approach to guiding individuals to faith, blending intellectual and relational experiences seamlessly.

    Have you ever felt spiritually dry? We all have. Stephanie and I talk about reframing these periods not as failures but as opportunities to deepen our intimacy with God. We explore the concept of waiting with holy expectancy, transforming discontent into growth and trust in God's broader, gracious will.

    Lastly, we savor the delicious delight of God's goodness through the metaphor of food and spices. Drawing from Psalm 34:8, "Taste and see that the Lord is good," we explore the rich connection between physical senses and spiritual experiences. Personal anecdotes and cultural insights highlight how savoring simple pleasures like cinnamon can lead to profound spiritual insights, making this episode a celebration of cultural diversity, personal growth, and boundless joy in our walk with God.
