The Devoted Dreamers Podcast

Whether you have a dream in your heart or aren’t sure what God might be calling you to, The Devoted Dreamers Podcast will encourage you on the journey. This space is dedicated to sharing stories every week of women who are following Jesus and pursuing their God-given gifts in beautifully imperfect ways. You’ll hear about the fears and challenges that threaten their dreams as well as the joy, courage and confidence that comes from following Jesus even in the unexpected…especially in the unexpected.

I’m your host, Merritt Onsa, and my prayer is that this show will meet you where you are in your walk with God. I hope you will come away from the podcast each week with encouragement to begin pursuing your own dreams even when you still feel flawed, imperfect, unfinished and not ready. Because if you wait until you are perfect, you will never take the first step. Join us!

Why is there so much pressure to figure out the dream before you start?

Most women say it’s the fear of getting it wrong, making a mistake, or misunderstanding God’s prompting and falling out of His will. 

But truly, these concerns have nothing on God. He is not afraid of you getting it wrong. He’s not withholding his direction to see if you’ll make a misstep. He loves you deeply. He is with you constantly, and His heart is for you to walk confidently in the freedom he purchased for you through His Son Jesus.  

Last year I created a group coaching experience called The Dreamer Lab where women with big dreams could come together to build community, find clarity through action, and grow their confidence as they pursue a God-shaped dream. 

Today I want you to meet another Dreamer Lab member Brandy Traylor. She’s the dreamer behind Spoken For, a storytelling event where women share the mundane, messy, and monumental chapters of their lives and how God showed up and showed off as the main character in their stories. 

When Brandy joined in January 2023, she did not have certainty about the details of her dream as it exists today. 

In this episode you’ll learn about:

  • Pursuing a dream even when you’re not sure of the direction or outcome,
  • Letting your ideas and ambitions mature over time, and
  • Maintaining an open-handedness so that God can redirect your dream if He wants to.

 

If you are looking to build community, clarity and confidence are your God-shaped dream, join me on September 19th for the Dreamer Lab Mirror Experience – a free workshop on Zoom – to experience exactly what it’s like to be part of a group of women who are invested in one another’s success and who know deep in their bones what it’s like to step boldly into a God-shaped dream. 

September 19th at 8:00 am Pacific / 11:00 am Eastern
