You ever feel like you're surrounded by a million "likes" and "followers" but still feel completely... invisible? Like, are we just screaming into the void of the internet, or is somebody actually seeing us? And speaking of being seen, has God really noticed all the hard work you're putting in? It's a lot, I know!
In this episode I aim to convey that:
You are SEEN by God, especially when you feel invisible.
Don't look to people for validation. Go to El-Roi!
Even in the desert moments, God is there.
Your cry to be seen? God hears it.
The next time you feel unseen, turn to God and say, "El-Roi, you are the God who sees me." You are NOT alone, my friend.
If this episode touched your heart like a good mariachi song, share it with your friends and leave a review! And don’t forget to tag me @biancajuarezofficial. We need to lift each other up. And remember, God sees you, even when you feel like nobody else does.
Until next time,

Want to unlock a life of true blessing? What if I told you the key might surprise you?
In today’s episode, I'm getting real about something that's transformed my life: biblical generosity. I know, talking about money can feel awkward, but I truly believe this message is vital.
I want to share with you a conversation I had with my twin sister, Jasmine, that changed my perspective on giving. I'll also dive into what scripture says about generosity and how it's not just about finances, but about a heart surrendered to God. I've seen firsthand how obedience in this area leads to incredible blessings, and I want to share that with you.
In this episode, I'm exploring:
What the Bible really says about tithing (10% giving)
Understanding offerings and generosity that go beyond the tithe
The concept of sowing seeds with faith and expectation
Sacrificial giving—what it means to give "above and beyond"
Why the heart behind your giving matters most
How I've experienced blessings through obedience and generosity in my own life
I hope this episode encourages you to live generously and to seek those real, deep blessings that come from God. Remember, you're loved, you're valued, and you're doing amazing! Now go make some tacos and be a blessing to someone today!
Have questions or want to share a photo of your tacos, tag me @biancajuarezofficial.
Love you,

It's my birthday! 🎉 And to make it special, I wanted to share what's actually been going on in my heart. It's been a journey of realizing, like, really realizing, some big things about my relationship with God.
Have you ever had a teaching moment completely flipped upside down? I’ve got a story for you! I was all set to teach on Luke 11, feeling pretty confident, and then BOOM! Lisa Harper drops a truth bomb that totally flipped my perspective. I.Got.Schooled. In the best possible way.
I talk about this and so much more in this episode. I’m also sharing about:
Turns Out, I Don't Know It All: The biggest surprise? Realizing how much I don't know. Age doesn't magically equal wisdom, y'all!
What's This "Orphan Spirit" Thing?: Ever felt abandoned, alone, or like you're not good enough? That might be an "orphan spirit" talking. It's when we look for validation and provision everywhere but from God.
Hello, Sonship/Daughtership!: Claiming my identity as God's child? Game changer. It's about knowing I belong, and you do too!
Chatting with God, Like, For Real: I'm learning to be totally honest with God. The good, the bad, the ugly—all of it.
The Perks of Being a Child of God: Freedom from fear? Confidence? Boldness? Yes, please! That's what comes with knowing who I am in Him.
And Yes, There Will Be Sourdough: Click here for my sourdough recipe. Because, priorities!😉
I do have this one Birthday Wish: Would you guys pray for me as I write my new book on wholeness? I really want to walk in my identity as God’s chosen child and sometimes, well, it’s tough.
Let's keep the conversation going! What resonates with you? I'd love to hear your thoughts. You can tag me on social media @biancajuarezofficial.
XO,

Takeaways
Identify where you're at before trying to fix it.
Replenishment is not just about self-care; it's about refueling all areas of life.
Disciplines are different from replenishment; both are necessary.
Replenishment can take on different cadences: daily, weekly, quarterly, and annually.
Integrate replenishment into your life, even in busy stages.
Invite others into your replenishment activities when possible.
Make replenishment a priority to avoid burnout.

Have you ever felt like your leadership journey was more about enduring pain than achieving success?
In this sneak peek of a leadership development session held at Revere Church, I explore the challenges and pain often associated with leadership. It emphasizes that pain can be a catalyst for growth and the importance of developing healthy coping mechanisms. Drawing inspiration from biblical figures like David, the session highlights finding strength in faith and building a supportive community.
My focus is to encourage everyone to embrace their leadership journey, acknowledging pain, and seeking growth through faith and connection with others. Some key topics include:
The role of community during crises
Pursuing purpose amidst pain
Addressing personal pain
The value of trust
Balancing discipleship with individual beliefs
The impact of presence
Finding God's guidance during difficult times can bring peace and help overcome the fear of pain and of having to prove yourself to others. Carefully consider the cost of discipleship, but also know that the rewards of faithfulness are always worth the challenges.

Can silence be a source of healing? Are you ready to embrace the power of silence in your life?
Friends, I’m excited to introduce the profound concept of a "theology of silence". I have discovered the transformative power of finding strength in the face of betrayal through stillness and silence.
It is so important to learn to share our stories from a place of healing and wholeness, rather than from a position of woundedness. Using the life of King David as a powerful example, I discuss the vital lessons of:
Integrity: Maintaining moral and ethical standards even amidst trials.
Honor: Honor up, honor down, and honor all around.
Surrender: The profound power of yielding to God's will, even in the face of betrayal and challenges.
I want to encourage you to reflect on your own journey of healing and consider the role of silence in your lives.
Share your story of how you are overcoming challenges and finding healing and tag and me @biancajuarezofficial.
Love you,
B

How do experiences from different generations influence leadership styles in the church?
Friends, in this bonus interview by Amy Ayala, I get the privilege to have a conversation with someone who is not only a wonderful teacher and preacher, but also my father, Pastor Pancho Juarez.

One of the highlights of our conversation is when we get to discuss the generational legacy of faith and resilience that my dad has modeled as the leader in our family. We also touch on the impact that our shared experiences have had on our leadership styles and community-building efforts.

Has pride ever impacted your life? Ready to recognize and address hidden pride in your heart?
Bible teacher, theologian, author, podcaster, book coach, husband and father of four, Dr. Joel Muddamalle and I discuss the profound topics of humility and pride. Dr. Joel shares his personal journey, revealing how a humiliating childhood experience shaped his understanding of humility and its significance. He explains that biblical humility is rooted in recognizing God and our true identity as His royal children. Pride, on the other hand, is the elevation of self, leading to chaos and confusion. Dr. Joel emphasizes that humility acts as a protection, prevention, and preservation, and that curiosity without limits can be destructive.
The conversation shifts to the crucial role of boundaries and limits in the context of curiosity and desire. Dr. Joel explains how God established boundaries in the pre-fallen world to safeguard Adam and Eve from self-destruction. He clarifies that limits are not punitive but rather a means to prevent us from becoming enslaved to unholy desires.
Dr. Muddamalle also explores the concept of hidden pride, which can corrupt the fruit of the Spirit and lead to destructive behavior. He highlights the importance of humility in overcoming pride and accepting our limits and weaknesses.
Key Points:
Humility: A foundational understanding rooted in recognizing God and our identity as His children.
Pride: The elevation of self, leading to chaos and confusion.
Boundaries and Limits: Essential for protecting us from self-destruction and enslavement to unholy desires.
Hidden Pride: A subtle form of pride that can corrupt the fruit of the Spirit.
The Power of Humility: Overcoming pride, accepting limits, and embracing our weaknesses.

Quote
Hidden pride is so deceptive because the conversation is happening in the chambers of the human heart.
Takeaways
Biblical humility starts with an awareness of God and our identity as royal children of God.
Pride is the elevation of self and leads to chaos and confusion.
Humility is a protection, prevention, and preservation.
Curiosity without limits is chaotic. Boundaries and limits were established by God in the pre-fall world to protect us from self-destruction.
Limits are not a punishment, but a way to prevent us from becoming enslaved to unholy desires.
Hidden pride corrupts the fruit of the Spirit and leads to destructive behavior.
Humility is the antidote to pride and helps us accept our limits and weaknesses.
Anxiety and shame can be addressed through humility and accepting our weaknesses.
