Ep. 5: Is That God—or Just Me? Hearing His Voice in Real Life
In this special episode of Echos of Impact, Briana and Cherise sit down—just the two of us—for a conversation that’s close to our hearts: how do we hear God’s voice?
We don’t come to this as experts, but as women who have spent a lifetime praying, listening, wrestling, and sometimes wondering if we heard Him right. Together, we share our own stories of hearing God through scripture, prayer, fasting, journaling, nature, dreams, and even those unexpected “word pictures” He places on our hearts.
We talk about how easy it is to put our own spin on what we think God is saying—and how to instead hold things loosely, test them against scripture, and lean into the peace He provides. From butterflies in the driveway to whispered verses that repeat over and over, we’ve both seen how God is faithful to keep speaking when we slow down to notice.
This episode is an honest, vulnerable conversation about discernment, intimacy with God, and the reality that His voice is often less about earthquakes and fire—and more about the still, small whisper.
