How to Make Decisions God’s Way (Without Overthinking or Rushing)

About this episode

Dr. Sharla provides a biblically grounded framework for making decisions without overthinking or rushing.

Decision-making isn’t about choosing the right option. It’s about choosing in the right order. In this episode, Dr. Sharla teaches a practical, biblically grounded framework for how to make decisions God’s way, especially when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or afraid of getting it wrong. You’ll learn why many “good” decisions still lead to burnout, resentment, or confusion and how pressure, fear, and urgency quietly distort discernment. Using Scripture and psychological insight, this episode walks you through a clear process to slow down, assess readiness, and move forward with peace instead of panic. If you’ve been overthinking, delaying, or rushing decisions in the name of faith, this conversation will help you regain clarity and trust God’s leadership again.
