Seed in the Closet
Seed in the Closet (SitC) is a unique project; we have been in production for two years. SitC began as a podcast with a distinct approach. We curated testimonials to refresh, remind, and reaffirm God's Word for some and to expose, engage, and establish who God is for others. We published these personal accounts to illustrate what it looks like in life's most difficult times: how God enables us to overcome challenges through the Blood of the Lamb and by sharing our testimonies. Seed in the Closet, a constantly evolving project, is expanding beyond testimonials. We are now sharing prayers, affirmations, and God's word. As we continue sharing the message of hope and salvation, we no longer limit ourselves to testimonial podcasts and videos. We are now expanding to written periodicals, shorts, and reels, always ready to speak His word when God tells us to.
Episodes
Life does what life will do.
Seasons change. People come and go. Circumstances shift.
In this episode of Seed in the Closet, we continue our conversation on inheritance—not just what we receive from God, but how we live from it while life is still happening around us.
Drawing from Ecclesiastes 1:9–10 and Isaiah 43:16–21, we reflect on the reality that while life follows familiar patterns, God is always doing somethi...
What does it really mean when we say inheritance?
In this episode of Seed in the Closet, we go beyond the idea that inheritance is only about heaven and uncover the spiritual inheritance believers already possess in Christ.
Rooted in Isaiah 11:1–3, we explore the prophetic promise of the Spirit resting on Jesus—and how, through Him, that same Spirit now lives in us. Drawing connections between Isaiah’s prophecy, Jesus’ ...
Have you ever been unsure whether what you’re hearing is God… or just your own thoughts?
In this episode of Seed in the Closet, Macretia Moody invites listeners into a deeply personal and spiritual conversation about learning how to sit still before God and discern His voice. Drawing from 1 Kings 19:9–13, the story of Elijah on the mountain, this episode explores what sitting with God looks like in real life.

This week’s episode is tender, sacred, and deeply personal.
I didn’t release an episode this past Monday because my grandmother, Bettye Davis, had been hospitalized, and our family spent Thanksgiving week traveling back and forth to be with her.
On Tuesday, December 2nd, this holy, praying, virtuous woman transitioned into eternity — and today, I honor her life and the seeds she planted in us.
In this episode, I sha...
Many believers boldly say, “I am a child of God,” yet few know Him as Father — and even fewer know Him as Abba: the intimate, present, tender Father who is deeply involved in their daily lives.
In this episode, we explore three common mindsets that distort how we relate to God as Father:
- The Illegitimate Child Mindset — claiming God but not knowing His character
- The Divorced Child Mindset — weekend visitation, “CME C...
This week on Seed in the Closet, Macretia shares a powerful revelation straight from quiet time with the Lord:
God doesn’t want a secondhand relationship with you.
He wants to speak to you directly.
In a world overflowing with Christian content—sermons, books, reels, devotionals, and voices on every platform—it’s easy to build a borrowed faith unintentionally. But Jesus tore the veil so that you could have your...
We can see our hands, our feet, our whole body—but never our own face without a mirror. In the same way, God’s Word becomes the mirror of our soul. In this episode, Macretia Moody invites us to look deeper into James 1:21-27 and ask: What does God see when He looks at me?
Are we reflecting His image, or a distorted version of it? Through Scripture and reflection, discover how the Holy Spirit polishes the mirror of your...
In this episode of Seed in the Closet, Macretia Moody takes us inside “The Cocoon of Transformation.”
Many of us have heard the story of the butterfly before—but today, we see it from a different angle.
The process of transformation isn’t about punishment—it’s about preparation. Romans 8 reminds us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, that nothing can separate us from His love, and that ...
When you know who God is, you start to see who you are.
In this episode, Macretia Moody invites you to look beyond your earthly experiences of parenthood and rediscover God as your perfect Parent — the One who covers like a Father and comforts like a Mother.
We all carry pieces of our past — moments of distance, rejection, or unmet love — that shape how we see God. But the truth is: He is not a reflection of our pa...
Romans 8 is one of the most hope-filled chapters in Scripture—because it reveals what it means to live in secured identity.
In this episode, Macretia Moody walks us through the truth that our identity in Christ is not earned, it’s established. We are secured because:
- Nothing can separate us from God’s love.
- God is for us.
- The Spirit intercedes for us.
- God designed both us and our lives for His purpose.
When li...
In this final segment of Seed in the Closet Season 3, Macretia takes us deeper into the process of Retraining Our Brainsby bringing together everything we’ve learned—setting the foundation through the Word, understanding the work of the Holy Spirit, and renewing our minds daily. This week’s message, Our Identity Is Secure, reminds us that the Spirit transforms us from the inside out. As we practice what we’ve received...
Scriptures: Romans 12:2; Ephesians 4:22–24
What does it look like to retrain our thinking and live from who God says we are? Macretia and special guest Veronica unpack daily mind renewal—how the Holy Spirit does the heavy lifting while we actively “put off the old” and “put on the new.” We talk Scripture memorization, prayer, worship, journaling, and Christ-centered fellowship—and why these practices literally reshape ...
How do we retrain our minds to think God’s thoughts and walk in His ways? In Part 2 of our five-segment mini-series Accepting Our Identity in Christ, Macretia and Veronica unpack the work of the Holy Spirit—how He renews our minds, aligns our desires with God’s will, and teaches us to live out our inheritance in Christ.
We revisit Isaiah 55 in context, connect it to life post-Cross (hello, Holy Spirit!), and walk throu...
In this 4-part conversation, Macretia is joined by her friend Veronica to explore what it means to accept our identity in Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to retrain our thinking.
In Part 1, we lay the foundation: the Bible says we already have the mind of Christ (Philippians 2:5; 1 Corinthians 2:16), we are a new creation in Him (2 Corinthians 5:17), and our identity is secure. Yet daily, we are called to renew our mi...
In this episode of Seed in the Closet, host Macretia Moody unpacks James 1:2–4 and what it means to have a faith designed by God to endure and overcome.
We’ll walk through 3 teaching truths about faith:
- We live by faith, not by our feelings.
- Victory is already ours in Christ.
- Faith requires works — it’s active, not passive.
Macretia also shares a personal reflection story, reminding us that our inheritance in Chri...
God didn’t just create you — He designed you. And that design points directly to your divine assignment.
In this episode of Seed in the Closet, host Macretia Moody takes us to John 21:15–17, where Jesus restores and recommissions Peter. Through their exchange, we see how Peter’s identity and inheritance were not only affirmed but connected to his assignment — tending and shepherding God’s people.
Tog...
Before you ever took your first breath, God already knew you. He didn’t just notice you—He planned you. In this episode of Seed in the Closet, Macretia Moody walks us through three core truths about our identity in Christ:
- You are not an accident — you were created, chosen, and consecrated by God.
- Identity is received, not achieved — what looks like proof in your life is really the fruit of God’s work in you.
- Th...
Welcome to Season 3 of Seed in the Closet! In this opening episode, host Macretia Moody invites you into a new season of discovery and transformation. Together, we’ll explore the richness of our identity in Christ—who God is, who we are in Him, and how those truths shape the way we live every day.
We’ll reflect on the journey from past seasons: heartfelt testimonies of God’s faithfulness, deeper study of Scripture, and...
Why do we give fear so much freedom and put God in a box?
In this episode of Seed in the Closet, we take a closer look at how one small negative thought can spiral into full-blown anxiety—and how we can stop it in its tracks. God invites us to think bigger, dream wilder, and expect greater. He said He can do exceedingly and abundantly more than we could ask or imagine (Eph. 3:20). So why not believe Him?
It’s time to ta...

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
