Delighting in the Love of God with Stephanie Rousselle

Happy Wednesday! In this episode, we sit down with Stephanie Rousselle to talk about her new book "Awaken Delight" and her journey toward Delighting in God. Stephanie once identified as an atheist, and she shares the story of how her perspective shifted in a deeply personal way—moving from skepticism to a faith shaped not just by belief, but by joy, beauty, and delight. Rather than focusing only on arguments or doctrine, Stephanie invites listeners into a different way of seeing: one where knowing God is not merely intellectual, but relational and transformative. She reflects on the moments, questions, and inner tensions that led her to rethink what she believed about meaning, truth, and God. Joining the conversation are cohosts Sarah and Katelyn. Katelyn, who currently identifies as an atheist, brings an honest and thoughtful perspective, engaging openly with Stephanie’s story and ideas. Her questions and reflections add depth to the discussion, highlighting both points of connection and real disagreement in a respectful, curious exchange. Together, the conversation explores big questions about belief, doubt, and what it means to “delight” in something—or someone—you’re still trying to understand. It’s an honest, layered dialogue that doesn’t rush to easy conclusions, but instead makes space for listening, tension, and reflection.
