Seek J.O.Y with Cheyenne Lenhart

“To whom much is given… much is required.”

God has been calling me into deeper waters — in prayer, in stewardship, in sacrifice. And He reminded me that the more I’ve been given — spiritually, materially, emotionally — the more He’s expecting from me.. In ways we don’t often think about. 

We dive into:

• Why knowledge and calling come with weight

• The Greek meaning of “will be required” (it’s deeper than duty)

• How God is pruning me thr...

What if “fellowship” meant more than small talk after service?

In this episode, we’re digging into the real meaning of biblical fellowship — and I promise, it’s deeper (and more beautiful) than we’ve been taught.

Acts 2:42 says the early Church “devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer.” But the word for fellowship in the Greek is koinonia — and y’all… it doesn’t just me...

Hey fam — in this episode, I’m opening up about something God’s been working on in me heavy: leadership. Not platform. Not perfectionism. But posture.

I used to think leadership was all pressure and performance. But lately, God’s been gently (and persistently 👀) reminding me that in the Kingdom, leadership starts on your knees.

In this episode, I’m sharing:

• How God has been redeeming my view of leadership

• The moment He told me: “W...

Hey fam — today’s episode is all about clarity. On my last episode, I shared some thoughts around prayer and predestination that may have left some of y’all with questions — and you know what? That’s okay. My pastor always says clarity is kindness, so I want to take a moment to clarify what the Bible says.

We’re diving into the truth behind predestination (no, you’re not a robot), the power of specific prayer (without sliding into “...

In today’s episode, I’m sharing all the things: birthday joy, Holy Spirit tears, and the absolute sweetness of being baptized on my intimacy day with Jesus.

From bowling and free ice cream to the deep, heart-melting moments while being dunked, this weekend was a love letter from Abba. I talk about what baptism meant to me, the kindness of God showing up through people I love, and how He keeps inviting me to receive—not just give.

If...

This episode is hot off the press—literally straight from my journal and prayer time. The Lord has been wrecking me (in the best way) about what it really means to be His daughter...and why I’ve had such a hard time calling Him “Father.”

When God Asked Me Why I Can’t Call Him “Father”

God said something to me recently that hit deep. He said,

“You have an issue calling Me Father.”

And I already knew that… but you know when the L...

Have you ever stopped to think about how deeply God actually loves you?

This episode is a gentle but powerful reminder of God's heart for you. I’m diving into Psalm 139 and John 3:16 and other scriptures that show us just how personal, intentional, and overwhelmingly kind our God is.

He sees everything — the loud, the quiet, the messy, the hidden — and He still chooses us.

We talk about:

• How God pays attention to even the small...

This episode is really special to me. I got to sit down with my pastor, Shane Huey from Cross and Crown Church, and have one of the realest conversations about faith, calling, and what it costs to say yes to God.

Shane opens up about his story—growing up in a home marked by abuse, mental illness, and dysfunction—and how God still called him into ministry. We talked about the weight of pastoring, the parts no one really sees, and how...

Can you really follow Jesus… alone?

In this episode of Seek J.O.Y., we’re getting into the real talk about community—why it matters, why God commands it, and why "just me and God" isn't biblical.

I share how Scripture shows us that God Himself is communal, and that from the beginning, He designed us to thrive together—not apart. We’ll talk about:

• Why saying "I believe in God but not church" misses the full picture
• How Abraham was c...

I open up about something I’ve been wrestling with deeply—how to forgive someone who didn’t hurt me directly, but hurt someone I love.

It’s one thing to forgive when you’re the one who’s been wounded. But when you’re standing in the gap for someone else's pain, that forgiveness feels even harder—more personal, more protective, more complicated.

We’ll talk about:

☆ Why forgiveness is obedience, even when it’s painful

☆ How I’ve seen...

Let’s talk about what international ministry work looks like. Not the performative stuff. Not the savior complex. But the kind that actually honors God and the people you're called to serve.

In this episode, I sit down with John McCollum, Executive Director of Asia’s Hope, to talk about:
-His raw, personal journey with Jesus
-How Asia’s Hope is flipping the script on traditional ministry
-What it takes to build somethin...

Do we truly want to be holy or do we just like the idea of holiness? What does it really mean to be holy? Is it just about behavior—or is it about becoming? In this episode, Cheyenne unpacks the true meaning of holiness, and how following Jesus means being set apart—not just in how we live, but in how we suffer.

Using Luke 23:32–43—the powerful scene at the cross—we explore:

🔹 What it means to be holy as God is holy

🔹 The connect...

Sin is something we all deal with—but how we handle it can either keep us stuck or lead us into true freedom. In this episode of Seek J.O.Y., Cheyenne talks about what it really looks like to confront sin—without shame, without excuses, and without hiding.

We’ll dive into:
🔹 Why justifying sin keeps you stuck
🔹 How to confess, repent, and walk in grace
🔹 The danger of secret sins like gossip, grudges, and bitterness
�...

Are you truly resting—or just numbing yourself? If your “rest time” leaves you feeling just as exhausted (or even more drained), you might be caught in the trap. In this episode of Seek J.O.Y., Cheyenne dives into what real, God-centered rest looks like and why doom scrolling, binge-watching, and constant distraction aren’t actually helping you recharge.

🔹 Why your ‘rest’ isn’t making you feel better
🔹 How social media, TV, &am...

Have you ever felt like the world is just too loud? Like social media, music, TV, and even podcasts (yes, including this one) are constantly filling every quiet moment?

In this episode of Seek J.O.Y, I’m sharing the deep conviction God gave me to turn everything off—to silence the noise and tune into His voice.

We’ll talk about:

• How entertainment and media can become modern-day idols
• The impact of constant noise on our spiritual l...

Have you ever prayed, waited, and heard… nothing? It can feel like God is silent, but what if He’s actually growing your faith in the waiting? In this episode, Cheyenne unpacks what’s really happening when it seems like God isn’t speaking.

We’ll talk about:

• Why God’s silence isn’t His absence
• How seasons of waiting can
• The difference between God being silent vs. us being unwilling to hear
• How to lean into God’s promises and ...

There’s a fine line between contentment and complacency, and as believers, we’re called to know the difference. In this episode of Seek J.O.Y, we’re breaking down what it means to truly rest in God’s peace without getting stuck in stagnation.

We’ll dive into:
✨ The difference between contentment and complacency (and why it matters!)
✨ How to trust God’s timing while still pursuing growth
✨ Signs you may be settling instead of standing ...

As women of God, we often hear, “Guard your heart.” But what does that actually mean? In this episode of Seek J.O.Y, I dive deep into what Scripture says about protecting your heart—not by your own strength, but by allowing the Lord to be your defender.

We’ll talk about:
💛 Why guarding your heart doesn’t mean building walls
💛 The danger of relying on your own strength instead of God’s
💛 How to surrender control and let God be your p...

In this episode of Seek J.O.Y, I sit down with Will Garinger, one of the founders of Run With Christ, a nationwide ministry dedicated to helping people ~run~ boldly in faith. Will shares his powerful testimony of transformation—how he went from living of the world to being in the world for Christ.

We dive deep into:

• What it truly means to die to yourself and live for Jesus
• Overcoming worldly temptations and embracing a Kingdom...
