Seek JOY with Cheyenne Goto

That “good sermon” feeling… and then doing nothing with it.
God gently convicted me and it changed how I see the Church.

In this episode, I open up about a personal conviction the Lord placed on my heart regarding church, sermons, and Christian community. If your faith has slowly become “just me and God,” this conversation is an invitation to rediscover the beauty of being formed together.

We talk honestly about obedience, nearnes...

This episode is a real, honest conversation about abiding in Christ and what it looks like to control our tongue when our flesh wants to speak first.

We walk through James and talk about how our words reveal what our heart is rooted in. Not with condemnation. With love. With conviction that leads to freedom.

This episode is for the believer who loves Jesus but knows there are places God is inviting them deeper. Especially in how they...

This episode is about obedience when it’s uncomfortable.

When God says no and you don’t get it and you’re grieving it and you still choose Him anyway.

We talk about abiding in Jesus, trusting God’s timing, and how obedience doesn’t make you happy. It makes you holy.

If you’re navigating the 'no' from God, this conversation is for you.

Life doesn’t pause so we can feel ready.

In this episode of Seek JOY, we talk about Jesus meeting us in the in-between. The unfinished spaces. The moments where life is still shifting and nothing feels settled yet.

Recorded from the floor in the middle of transition, this conversation is about abiding in God’s presence when you don’t need answers, advice, or correction. You just need to be with Him.

If you’re navigating change, spirit...

Okay so… I didn’t plan this episode.

I went into 2026 not feeling “new year, new me” at all. And every time I asked the Lord what He wanted me to talk about, all I kept hearing was “abide.” Over and over again. Like He would not move on.

So this episode is me processing what abiding actually looks like. Not as a vibe. Not as a cute Christian word. But as trust. As obedience. As receiving God’s love instead of trying to fix myself or ...

Bye bye 2025! Wow, what a year.

Are we following Jesus or following Christian trends?

This episode dives into the rise of aesthetic Christianity, TikTok theology, prosperity thinking, emotional-high spirituality, Christian nationalism, celebrity leaders, and the subtle ways culture shapes our faith without us noticing.

In this episode, we talk about the beauty of being on fire for Jesus and the wisdom required to carry that fire well.

Scripture shows us that zeal without understanding can become impulsive, confusing, or even harmful. But zeal with wisdom? That becomes a steady flame God can actually build with.

We explore how to discern the motivation behind your zeal, how to grow in wisdom, and how to stay teachable while following the Holy Spiri...

I used to measure my worth by what I could do, how much I could influence, and the fruit I was bearing. But God called me to take a hard look at the roots of my motivation—and where I was placing my value.

In this episode, I share the process of losing what I thought defined me, inspecting the fruit of my labor (Matthew 7:15-20), and how Jesus redeemed my understanding of worth.

If you’ve ever asked, “Who am I beyond my accomplishme...

This week on Seek JOY, we talk about hunger — the cravings that control hearts, shape faith, and steal joy. Every day, we feast, but are we feeding the flesh or nourishing the spirit?

Jesus offers a table for our soul. Will we feast on Him or continue giving our attention to fleeting pleasures? This episode unpacks how daily choices, habits, and desires reveal what truly rules our hearts.

📖 Scripture: John 6:51-58 | Luke 14:15-24

Have you ever tried to date with God truly at the center?

In this episode, I’m sharing my story of how God told me to stop dating — not as punishment, but as protection. It was in that season that I learned what holy dating really means. From boundaries and purity to kindness and obedience, this journey taught me how to love in a way that reflects Him.

If you’re in a season of waiting, wondering, or trying to navigate dating as a Chr...

Last time, I talked about being sick of me; frustrated with my own mess and amazed by how kind God was in response. But this time, He took it deeper.

God showed me that enjoyment is a spiritual discipline.  One I’ve honestly never practiced… or even thought about that way.

In this episode, we unpack what spiritual disciplines actually are. Not just prayer, fasting, or Bible study, but the overlooked ones.

We’ll talk about how to shift...

I’ve been having some heavy conversations with the Lord lately… and what it really came down to is this — I’m sick of me. Sick of my thoughts, my attitude, my bitterness. Sick of feeling like I should be further along by now.

In this episode, we talk about what it means to wrestle with yourself and still be deeply delighted in by a Mighty God. About realizing that frustration isn’t failure, and that God’s kindness meets us right in ...

In Revelation 4:10, the twenty-four elders fall before God’s throne and cast their crowns down — a powerful picture.

These aren’t crowns of royalty but Stephanos crowns — symbols of victory.

In this episode, we’ll talk about what casting crowns really means, why we’re not called to envy someone else’s crown, and how laying ours down is an act of worship that echoes for eternity.
