Many believers feel pressure to reach clarity quickly—to resolve questions, make decisions, and move forward with confidence. When answers do not come as expected, listening can begin to feel strained, and discernment can quietly turn into effort rather than trust.

In this reflective and pastoral episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian invites listeners to slow down and consider a gentler, more faithful way of listening to God. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by spiritual wisdom, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐝𝐨𝐦 𝐢𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐮𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲.

Rather than urging listeners toward immediate conclusions or decisive outcomes, this conversation reframes listening as an act of trust—one that allows space for silence, patience, and the steady work of the Holy Spirit. Brian reflects on how Scripture consistently portrays God as a faithful guide who is not hurried by our timelines and not threatened by our unanswered questions.

If you are in a season where prayer feels quiet, decisions feel unresolved, or clarity feels just out of reach, this episode offers reassurance that waiting is not failure and uncertainty is not disobedience. 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭, 𝐬𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐱𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐝𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐬.

Press play, slow your pace, and discover how faithful listening grows—not through pressure or urgency, but through patience, attentiveness, and trust in the God who leads His people well.

Many sincere believers struggle to discern God’s voice—not because they don’t care about obedience, but because discernment has quietly turned into self-critique. Instead of listening for the Spirit’s leading, they analyze, second-guess, and judge themselves, often mistaking anxiety for wisdom and harsh self-talk for spiritual maturity.

In this reflective and pastoral episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian invites listeners to slow down and recover a more biblical, grace-filled understanding of discernment. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by spiritual wisdom, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐞𝐚𝐫, 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐞, 𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞.

Rather than offering formulas or techniques, this conversation reframes discernment as a relational practice—rooted in trust, humility, and attentiveness to the Holy Spirit, not self-condemnation.

Through biblical reflection, pastoral clarity, and gentle guidance, Brian explores:

- Why discernment often becomes distorted by fear and self-judgment

- How Scripture distinguishes conviction from condemnation

- The difference between Spirit-led clarity and anxious self-analysis

- Why discernment grows through trust, not pressure

- How to create interior space to listen for God’s voice with peace

If you’ve found yourself overanalyzing every decision… If discerning God’s will feels exhausting rather than life-giving… If you long to hear God without condemning yourself in the process…

This episode offers a steady invitation: discernment is not self-critique—𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞-𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐬 𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞.

We live in a world that begins with behavior—fix the habit, change the outcome, move faster, do more. Scripture begins somewhere deeper: the heart.

In this reflective and pastoral episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian invites listeners to slow down and reconsider where real transformation begins. Drawing from Proverbs, the teachings of Jesus, and the wisdom of Scripture, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞.

Rather than offering quick fixes or self-improvement strategies, this conversation reframes spiritual growth as formation—shaped by attention, desire, and grace rather than pressure or performance.

Through biblical reflection, pastoral wisdom, and gentle invitation, Brian explores:

- Why Scripture prioritizes the heart before behavior or outcomes

- The difference between formation and self-improvement

- How rushing change often produces shallow fruit

- Why desire and attention play a central role in spiritual growth

- How God renews the heart from the inside out, over time

If you’ve felt weary from trying harder… If your faith feels sincere but fragmented… If you sense God inviting you to slow down rather than speed up…

This episode offers a steady reminder: 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧—𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐇𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮.

Press play, slow your pace, and begin again where Scripture begins: with the heart.

Have you ever reached the end of a season and wondered whether you finished well—or simply survived?

In this reflective and pastoral episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian speaks to the sacred tension many believers feel at the close of a year—gratitude mixed with regret, relief mixed with uncertainty, hope mixed with unanswered questions.

Grounded in Scripture and shaped by biblical wisdom, this episode reframes 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐭, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐲 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝.

Through theological reflection, pastoral insight, and Spirit-led encouragement, Brian explores:

- Why finishing well matters just as much as starting strong

- How God uses endings to form our character, not just close chapters

- What Scripture teaches about faithfulness, perseverance, and obedience over time

- Why stepping forward with God requires reflection, not haste

- How to release what was never meant to follow you into the next season

If you’re closing this year tired… If you’re carrying disappointment or unresolved questions… If you’re eager for a new beginning but unsure how to step forward faithfully…

This episode offers a steady invitation: Don’t rush the ending. Let God finish what He started.

𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐝. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐝.

Have you ever felt caught between hope and uncertainty—trusting God, yet still waiting for things to change?

In this reflective and pastoral episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian speaks to the tension many believers carry during seasons of waiting—especially when prayers feel unanswered and peace feels distant.

Grounded in Scripture and shaped by the Advent truth of Immanuel—God with us, this episode gently reframes waiting not as God’s absence, but as a sacred space where His presence is often most near.

Through biblical reflection, pastoral wisdom, and quiet encouragement, Brian explores:

- Why waiting is not an interruption to faith, but often the place where God forms us

- How peace is found not in resolution, but in recognizing God's nearness

- How the birth of Jesus reveals how God meets us in vulnerability and uncertainty

- Why God's answer to waiting is often presence rather than explanation

- Simple ways to practice trust and peace while life remains unresolved

If you are waiting for clarity… If you are carrying disappointment or fatigue… If you are tempted to believe peace will come after everything changes…

This episode offers a steady reminder: God does not meet us only on the other side of the waiting—He meets us in it.

You are not late. You are not forgotten. You are not alone.

Press play, slow your pace, and rest in the truth that God is with you—right here, right now, even in the waiting.

Have you ever wondered if God is really speaking to you—or if the noise of life is drowning Him out?

In this timely and pastoral episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian gently addresses one of the most common questions believers ask: How do I hear God’s voice in a loud, busy, and distracting world?

Drawing from Scripture and grounded in a Spirit-led, relational faith, this episode removes pressure and fear while restoring confidence that God is still speaking—and that His children can learn to recognize His voice.

Through biblical teaching, pastoral insight, and practical encouragement, Brian explores:

- Why hearing God's voice is part of relationship, not a special gift for a few

- How Scripture and the Holy Spirit work together to guide believers today

- Why God often speaks with gentleness rather than urgency

- Why peace - not pressure - is a key indicator of God's leading

- Simple practices for creating space to hear God more clearly

If you’ve ever felt uncertain about discernment… If you’ve worried about getting it wrong… If you’ve believed God speaks to others more clearly than He speaks to you…

This episode will bring reassurance, clarity, and hope.

You don’t have to strain to hear God. You don’t have to fear missing Him. The Good Shepherd knows how to lead His sheep—even in the noise.

Press play, quiet your heart, and learn to recognize the voice of God who is closer than you think.

In this powerful second episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian invites listeners to step into one of the most foundational truths of the Christian life: who you are in Christ. Because you cannot rise into the life God created you to live while holding on to labels He never gave you.

Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:17, this episode explores what it truly means to be a new creation—not as a future goal, but as a present reality. The old has passed away. The new has already come.

With biblical depth, pastoral insight, and practical wisdom, Brian unpacks:

- Why identity is the foundation of spiritual growth

- How old labels from the past continue to shape present decisions

- The difference between knowing you're saved and living from your new identity

- Why transformation flows from identity, not effort

- How renewing your mind allows you to rise into who God says you already are

If you’ve ever believed lies about who you are… If you’ve struggled to move forward because of old patterns or old voices… If you love Jesus but still feel like you’re living beneath your calling…

This episode will help you lift your eyes, renew your mind, and step into the truth:

You are not who you used to be. You are who Christ says you are. And it’s time to rise into that identity.

In this powerful opening episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian gets real about the moments when life leaves you empty, exhausted, or at the end of your rope—and why those are the very places where Jesus meets you with transforming grace.

Drawing from 2 Corinthians 12:9, Jesus’ words to Paul become a lifeline for anyone feeling overwhelmed: “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.”

With honest storytelling, biblical insight, and pastoral encouragement, Brian shares:

- Why weakness is not a failure but an invitation

- How grace works in the places we try hardest to hide

- The surprising way God rebuilds us after seasons of shame or loss

- His own testimony of being restored when he thought his calling was over

- Three practical steps to move from self-sufficiency to grace-sufficiency

If you’ve ever wondered whether God can use you after a setback… If you’re tired of pretending you’re strong while you’re breaking inside… If you’re desperate for hope, strength, or a fresh start…

This episode will breathe courage into your soul and remind you: You don’t have to be strong enough—just surrendered enough. Grace will do the rest.

Hit play, take a deep breath, and let grace meet you right where you are.
