Building a Legacy of Faith: One Small Shift at a Time

In this episode, Brett shares personal reflections on faith, writing, and the power of daily connection with God. He begins with a conversation at work that unexpectedly led to a discussion about book writing and how AI tools like ChatGPT can help structure ideas. While initially hesitant about using technology in the creative process, Brett realizes that God can speak through many avenues, including AI, to inspire and guide us.

 

Brett then introduces a new practice he’s incorporating into his spiritual life—Bible stacking. This method helps him dive deeper into scripture, not just reading the words but actively seeking God’s message and applying it to his daily life. He reflects on Hebrews 11, exploring the difference between belief and faith, and how true faith requires unwavering confidence in what we hope for, even when we can’t see the outcome.

 

Through his journey of writing, prayer, and Bible study, Brett encourages listeners to explore their own faith, embrace their creative calling, and trust in God’s plan for their lives.

 

Key Takeaways:

1. Embrace Your Calling – If you feel called to write a book, start with an outline, pray about it, and take small steps toward bringing your message to life.
2. God Speaks Through Many Means – Whether through scripture, people, experiences, or even technology, God can use anything to guide and inspire us.
3. Faith is More Than Belief – True faith is having full confidence in what we hope for, even when we don’t yet see the results.
4. Commit to Spiritual Growth – Making time for daily Bible study, reflection, and prayer can transform your mindset and deepen your relationship with God.
