Grow + Go | Hearing God, Embracing Change, and Learning to Let Go with Megan Nilsen

Most of us have prayed a version of this prayer: God, if you want me to do this, just make it obvious. Send a sign. Make it clear. And then we wait. And wait. And wonder if we’re the only one who can’t seem to hear him.

This week I sit down with Megan Nilsen — life coach, author, podcaster and seminary student — and she has oodles of wisdom to share. In the most generous and practical way possible, she gently dismantles the idea that hearing God’s voice is reserved for a special few, and helps us understand why we might be missing it and how to start paying better attention.

Megan also shares the story of how God led her and her husband to adopt two children from Ethiopia — a journey full of fear, surrender, idols she didn’t know she had, and one date in her journal that gave her chills. It’s one of those stories you don’t forget.

We talk about: ✨ Why most of us are waiting for God to speak when he’s already speaking ✨ How to build your discernment muscle — practically and biblically ✨ What adoption taught Megan about control, fear, and the love of God ✨ Why good and godly things can quietly become the idols that undo us ✨ How to navigate seasons of transition without getting stuck in lament ✨ What life coaching actually is — and how it’s different from counselling, mentoring, and spiritual direction ✨ Why humility isn’t weakness — it’s the whole game

Is there an area of your life right now where you’re waiting for God to make things obvious when in fact he might be inviting you to take a step?
