Ep 86 with Pastor Alex Seeley: Why Interruptions are Invitations and Living in Step With the Spirit

Sometimes God’s plan feels like an interruption—but it’s actually an invitation. In this episode, host Christine Caine talks with pastor and author Alex Seeley about what it really looks like to surrender your own timeline for God’s. Alex shares her journey church planting in Nashville, the cost and joy of obedience, and why living fully awake to the Holy Spirit changes everything. Whether you’re in a season of waiting, wrestling, or wondering what’s next, this conversation will inspire you to trust God’s leading and step boldly into His purposes.
