What do weeds in your yard have to do with your walk with Christ? In this raw and real episode of the Messenger Movement Podcast, Tamra Andress shares her personal journey of uncovering the “weeds” of pride, false humility, control, and jealousy—and how the Lord used seasons of waiting to cultivate humility, intimacy, and renewal.

Through powerful storytelling (yes, even a lost luggage saga), Tamra unpacks how God speaks in the small details and how He invites us to partner with Him in pruning what doesn’t belong. If you’ve ever felt stuck in waiting, overwhelmed by hidden weeds in your life, or confused about the fruit your season is bearing, this conversation will encourage, challenge, and equip you to surrender and trust the Master Gardener.
