  • What to Do When You Don’t Know What to Do: Finding Wisdom in Uncertainty
    Feb 6 2025

    Hey everyone, welcome back to The Alabaster Project! I’m Katie, and I’m so grateful you’re tuning in today.


    Lately, life has felt like a whirlwind—so many decisions, so few clear answers. Maybe you’re in the same place, feeling stuck between "what ifs" and "maybes," wondering what to do next. In this episode, we’ll dive into three key scriptures that have helped me seek God’s wisdom when I don’t have all the answers:

    Recenter – Shift your focus back to God’s truth (2 Chronicles 20:12)
    Ask – Simply ask God for wisdom (James 1:5)
    Declare – Trust and praise Him, even before you receive the answer (Psalm 16:7)


    If you’ve ever felt lost in decision-making, this episode is for you. Plus, I have a free downloadable phone wallpaper with these scriptures so you can keep them close, memorize them, and pray them over yourself daily. Grab yours using the link below!

  • Advent Message: Where is God in the Silence.
    Dec 11 2024

    On December 6th, I had the privilege of speaking at a women’s event at Baylife Church, sharing a Christmas message centered around the question: Where is God in the silence? In this busy season, it’s easy to feel like God is distant, but I believe He is always present, even in the quiet moments. I invite you to listen to the end of the message, where I lead a special guided prayer. I hope this message brings encouragement and hope as we enter this Christmas season.
