🎙️ Crumb Confessional — Episode 39e

Title: What if God actually is telling me to prosper?

Description:

Driving home on Father’s Day, listening to worship music and following the Spirit, I saw a billboard with the word “prosper”—and it hit me like a thunderbolt. I looked up the definition, talked it through with ChatGPT, and realized I’ve been blocking blessings out of fear and theology. The word “prosperity” has been so mangled in Christian culture that I’ve run from it, but maybe that’s exactly where God’s pointing me now.

I talk about:

• Seeing “prosper” on a billboard and sensing God’s voice
• Why the idea of prospering scares me more than dying daily
• Years of avoiding anything that smells like the prosperity gospel
• Realizing I may have resisted God's provision out of fear or pride
• Committing to keep documenting these internal shifts

More to come, more to come, more to come… just documenting it in case God wants to use it.
