She couldn’t play music… then suddenly, she could. But that wasn’t the real miracle.

At one point in Katie Peters’ life, she sat down at a piano with almost no ability to play—and the music just flowed. No training. No practice. No explanation. But what she discovered next was even more profound.

For years, Katie had walked with God, but like many people, she wrestled with questions that don’t go away just because you believe. How do you know when it’s really God? How do you hear His voice? And what does it actually mean for Christ to live through you instead of striving to live for Him?

What unfolded in her life wasn’t about trying harder or becoming more disciplined. It was about surrender—and learning to recognize the voice of God in a way that changed everything. The music wasn’t the destination. It was the evidence.

In this conversation, you’ll discover:
⇨ What it actually feels like to hear God’s voice
⇨ Why striving in your faith may be holding you back
⇨ The difference between living for God and letting Him live through you
⇨ How surrender unlocks transformation you can’t manufacture

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re really hearing God… or felt stuck trying to “do the right things” but still missing something deeper—this episode will challenge and encourage you.
