    YHWH

    In this episode, Mel discusses how peoples’ perceptions and views of God are sometimes built on faulty foundations that combine influences from pastors, teachers, podcasts, social media, friends, family, and upbringing. Resulting in a personal, often chaotic, amalgamation of beliefs about God and further perpetuation of an unhealthy view of God.

  • Holy
    Jan 23 2025

    In this episode titled Holy, we welcome you to join your host, Mel, as she dives deep into her personal faith journey, and why holiness is imperative to how we view the world and interact with others.

    Mel shares her salvation story to the ups and downs of her adult years, leaving no stone unturned. With a disarming blend of honesty and humor, she recounts a profound encounter with God on January 20, 2024, which led to Holy to YHWH Movement. This movement calls for a commitment to holiness, inspired by Leviticus 20:26. The mission is simple, Follow Jesus, Live Holy, and Be Set Apart.

    Mel dives into the complex definitions of holiness across languages and scriptures, challenging listeners to rethink their understanding. Using the eyeglass analogy, she provocatively illustrates how past traumas and life experiences can cloud our spiritual vision. Urging listeners to allow God to cleanse their lenses, transforming their perspective and healing their deepest wounds, while emphasizing the transformative power of a relationship with God through Jesus, and how it purifies and sanctifies our lives.

    Wrapping up, Mel encourages listeners to join this imperfect yet profound journey towards holiness, inspiring others to embrace God’s grace and power, as reflected in 2 Corinthians 12:9 and Philippians 2:13.

    Mel would love to hear from you!
