In this episode of Life Lately with Leo and Niq, we open up about how God has shown us the method behind miracles. Not a formula or a checklist, but the rhythm of faith, obedience, and surrender that allows Him to move in our lives.We share the real story behind how God helped us build our Christian wedding signage business, Design by Faith Co. From starting with a single word, to watering that word with faith, to learning how to step out in obedience even when we couldn’t see the full picture.This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the tension between trusting God and taking action.

We’re back. In this season opener, Niq and I are catching you up on everything that’s been happening, from updates in our business to the deep spiritual awakening God has been stirring in our hearts. It might feel a little like gumbo, a mix of everything, but every ingredient has purpose. (we promise lol)In this episode, we share how our focus has shifted from simply building a business to building the Kingdom. We talk about what it’s been like to walk in a deeper fear of the Lord, the renewed passion we have for saving souls, and what it truly means to live fully surrendered to God’s will.Our hope is that this conversation reminds the body of Christ to rise above the noise, to fight for unity instead of against each other, and to come back to the heart of the gospel: knowing Him and making Him known.If you’ve been sensing God stirring something new in your spirit, this one will speak directly to you!
