126: From Brokenness to Revelation: Cathy Colver Garland's Journey to Discovering God’s Intimate Voice
There are seasons when faith feels like a checklist—and then there are moments when God interrupts the list and invites us closer. In this opening conversation, Megan sits down with Cathy Colver Garland to unpack “Revelationship,” a way of life where God reveals Himself not only in church services, but in kitchens, waiting rooms, and the quiet places of our ordinary days. Cathy shares pieces of her journey—from executive leadership in the business world to becoming a writer, teacher, and guide—describing how fear, identity struggles, and health crises became the very ground where God’s voice grew unmistakably clear.
Together, they explore how intimacy with Christ transforms the way we walk through suffering. Cathy describes obedience as love in motion, the practice of listening and responding even when the outcome is hidden. She offers language for discerning God’s presence in the middle of pain, and reminds us that identity in Christ is not an idea to memorize but a relationship to live inside of—one that anchors us when everything else is shaking.
