Do you keep trying to make a decision about some aspect of your dream but just can't seem to choose? Maybe the end goal feels too far out of reach so it’s difficult to define what your dream could look like today. Or there are so many directions you could go to get started that all the possibilities are paralyzing.
If decision-making has paralyzed you and your dream, This is the episode for you.
It’s like going to the grocery store without a shopping list. When you can choose anything, it’s more difficult to decide on one thing. Having all the options available to you isn’t necessarily better than just having a few. If you could just narrow it down, you’ll put yourself in a better position to make decisions more quickly and get on with implementing them.
If only.
If decision-making stirs up fear and worries like “What if I make the wrong choice?” or “How can I know I’m walking in God’s plan for my life?” this episode will help you see your tendency to avoid making decisions. And it will help you see the three gifts that are available to you that will help you look at decision-making in a new way.
In this episode you’ll learn:
The connection between a secure identity and your ability to make decisions,
About the lie of indecision and how it’s keeping you stuck, and
How to start asking better questions to narrow down the options you are considering.

MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE
Restless, by Jennie Allen
Scripture:
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
~ Romans 8:38-39 (NIV)
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
~ John 10:10 (ESV)
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
~ 1 John 4:18 (NIV)
Love never brings fear, for fear is always related to punishment. But love’s perfection drives the fear of punishment far from our hearts. Whoever walks constantly afraid of punishment has not reached love’s perfection.
~ 1 John 4:18 (TPT)
And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty,” leading you back into the fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” enfolding you into the family of God. And you will never feel orphaned, for as he rises up within us, our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection, “Beloved Father!”
~ Romans 8:15 (TPT)
So now every righteous requirement of the law can be fulfilled through the Anointed One living his life in us. And we are free to live, not according to our flesh, but by the dynamic power of the Holy Spirit!
~ Romans 8:4 (TPT)
For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.
~ Ephesians 1:4 (NIV)
… passionately answer God’s call to keep yielding your body to him as one who has now experienced resurrection life! You live now for his pleasure, ready to be used for his noble purpose.
~ Romans 6:13 (TPT)
