When everything is collapsing, most people wait for a dramatic sign. I did something smaller and far more repeatable: I asked God a question, opened the Living Bible to a random page, and read. I call it my “Magic 8 Ball” system, and yes, I mean that seriously, because it kept meeting me with direction that felt personal, specific, and timed for the moment.

You’ll hear why I lean on the Living Bible (a plain English paraphrase) when my brain is overloaded and my life is on fire. I share how this practice guided me through seasons that did not look like tidy, peaceful faith: building a law practice from nothing, watching everything collapse after I tried to do the right thing, and making big decisions when I had no margin for confusion. We also talk about what faith through chaos actually looks like, including moving fast when the timing matters and listening even when the answer is not what you want.

If you’ve been asking how to hear God clearly, how to trust God in hard times, or how to read the Bible when you’re anxious, this conversation is your nudge to try a simple, honest approach. Listen, share it with someone who needs steadiness, and leave a review if Surviving Changes helps you stay grounded. What’s your system for hearing God when life gets loud?
