UNABRIDGED FAITH™, Biblical Mindset, Motherhood, Encouragement, Rest
Do you wish you could hear God’s voice amidst the chaos? Are you struggling to find stillness & quiet time in the busyness of momlife? Do you want to read the bible but find it hard to stay consistent with your child’s unpredictable schedule? Are thoughts and should’s keeping you from being present daily (& sometimes, moment by moment)? I’ve been you, and sometimes, I still am you. But mama, I am here to show you that it is possible to trust God & find time to feel peace in His presence, even as a busy mom. Through this podcast, God’s presence will refresh, surround & transform us as we listen for His voice and follow Him, making use of those tiny cracks in our day. My mission is to journey alongside you as we grow in our faith (leaving nothing out) by being present with God’s word, practicing prayer, pursuing fellowship & sharing powerful testimonies! If you want to learn how to invite God’s peace into your heart, motherhood, and mind, I know this podcast will speak to you. Welcome to a sisterhood of women who are fiercely in love with The Lord & who are committed to openly growing in their faith (with no judgment as we remember how to converse with other adult human beings)!! Aloha Mama! My name is Paige Amber Bacani!! I am blessed to be a lover of Jesus, wife, mama & mentor!! However, I wasn’t always this way…For years I lived life as my own God. I came to know The Lord intimately at a very young age, but as the years passed and were filled with my parents divorce, blended families, lots of moving, abusive relationships, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, and a plethora of my own bad decisions; I became numb to God’s presence, deaf to His voice, and blind to His leading. I also became tormented by spirits of perfectionism, control & criticism…if you can relate, you know how exhausting these vicious cycles are. I was being crushed by the weight of the world that I had created for myself. But I was still not ready to give up my false sense of freedom… I wasn’t ready because I didn’t trust The Lord or His unconditional love for me. I thought I had to earn it & I knew that I hadn’t done that!! I didn’t know the worth that He had placed inside of me. I thought I had to prove myself worthy & I knew that I wasn’t! I didn’t trust that He had plans to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me a hope and a future. I thought I had to plan, provide for & protect myself! Ultimately, I realized that my mistrust & misunderstanding of God’s character stemmed from the fact that I had no real relationship with Him. I rarely spent time with Him outside of church, except for the occasional emergency prayer! By the grace of God, I finally ran out of strength. My capacity to cope with the war raging inside of me was spent. I couldn’t imagine one more day of living in the unknown & acting like I had it all figured out! So one morning, sitting in my car (that was out of gas), after yet another night of drinking to the point of blackout, I surrendered and told The Lord, “if you really want me, you can have me, I am done doing this life thing on my own” and I have never been the same. The best way I can describe what The Lord has done in & through my life is that, I was one way & now I am completely different. I want that for you.. & I understand where you are… Becoming a mom only amplifies our trials. Yet, when we don’t know how to lean on the Lord, we lean even deeper into perfectionism, control & criticism. We run from discipline and say that ‘no time’ or ‘inconsistency’ keeps us from reading His Word & building deeper trust. It’s time to prioritize our relationship with the One who created us, with the One who faithfully puts air in our lungs, with the only One whose presence will bring us the true & lasting peace that our busy mama hearts ache for!! I know it’s hard, but it is so worth it. This is me, five years after fully re-surrendering my life to our God!! I stand in humbled awe at what The Lord has done with my simple surrender & I smile with eager excitement for what is to come for you & for me! My heart is eager with expectant anticipation at how The Lord will move in and through our individual lives & stories, because I trust that He will. ”Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her!” (Luke 1:45) Slip on your shoes, strap on your little one(s) & lets go for a walk, we have a date with The Lord!!

ALOHA & GoodMorning All!!
In Today's episode you get all the details of our messy middle before marriage!! Evan was in another relationship, I had sworn myself to singleness & The Lord was gracious through it all!!
He gave us the choice to stay in our confusion or grow in our communication. Although we didn't know what His plans were, we both knew that we trusted Him.
He grew our hearts for each other as our hearts grew for HIM! He led us in obedience to each other as we surrendered & chose to follow HIM!
Trust God & ENJOY!!

Aloha & GoodAFTERNOON Again!!
In today's episode you will get to hear a little bit more about the depths that Evan got to before finally re-surrendering his life to Christ (maybe you can relate)! The rest of his story is ALL glory to God! The redemptive work that The Lord has begun in this man & will be faithful to complete is absolutely astonishing!!
There is a part in here where Evan talks about God revealing pieces of who HE created him to be & how HE created Evan to show up in His creation. I love this so much because it is genuinely authentic & if you have ever had the privilege of meeting Evan you will know that what he says is true. He has the purest servant heart I have ever encountered & I pray that you feel seen through his testimony!
Trust God & ENJOY!!

Aloha & GoodAfternoon ALL!!
Today is very special to me!! In this episode, you get to meet my amazing, incredible, God fearing husband, Evan Bacani, as he authentically shares his heart on where he was before Christ & how he began taking steps towards a relationship with Him!
This was by no means easy for him to talk about (it is actually the first time he has ever processed his life story out loud, so you are getting his testimony in its purest form) but we both knew that sharing this was where The Lord was leading us! I am really looking forward to hearing from the men & woman God uses his testimony to speak to DIRECTLY!!
Trust God & ENJOY!!
All my love,
Your Sister,
Paige!!

Aloha & Goodmorning Sweet Sister!!
In todays episode, I share the 13 questions that I asked myself & a few close friends for "Market Research"! In other words, we sat down, opened our hearts & had a free mentoring session together! I have to praise God for each & everyone because Holy Spirit moved through these interviews!!
These interviews were priceless to me & I truly cherish them! Because of the authenticity that each women openly shared with me during our time together, I am now able to serve YOU, even better!! That is my heart, to see you & know you, right where you are, take your hand & unite it with the hand of our Savior!!
I promise you, that there is no better place for you than in His embrace. If you find yourself answering these questions & if you are gracious enough to be willing to share them with me, PLEASE DO!! I will add my email below!
I want my content to 1) glorify God & 2) serve you!! I trust that genuine conversations are the best way for me to get to know who you are, what you want, what you wish for & what you worry about so that we can address each area with TRUTH & grow together, in Unabridged Faith!!
Trust God & ENJOY!!

Your Sister,

Aloha Sweet Sister,
Three questions I want to leave you with that I forgot to add in the recording:
1) How has God been faithful to you this past week?
2) How have you been faithful to God this past week?
3) How have you sought God this past week?
In today's episode you will get to see behind the scenes of Unabridged Faith's launch week! As you will hear, it was completely different than what Evan & I had in mind! We had no idea that there would be a family emergency & that Evan would be flying out within hours, leaving Jacob & I to love on each other & lean on God to spread His message!!
I hope you find joy in the ways that God has been Faithful & Shown Himself to me through launch week! Especially by inviting me into REST, when I was prepared to be the busiest & work the hardest!! I also hope that you know that He wants to do the same thing for you...
...& that you begin to recognize & accept His invitations to REST & BE PRESENT!!
Trust God & ENJOY!!
All my love,
Your Sister,
Paige!!

ALOHA & GOODMORNING SWEET SISTER!!
Today is a Very special day!! It is the first interview EVER for Unabridged Faith & by God's grace it was done with my sweet sweet mentor, Stefanie Gass!
Stefanie Gass is a CEO, wife, boy mom, coffee lover, and #pjsallday enthusiast! Stef helps women start a podcast and successful online business, God's way. She is the host of a top .5% globally ranked podcast, The Stefanie Gass Show. Stef believes that when we partner with God in life and business we experience true miracles in our lives and the lives of others.
She gives us six tactical steps to balancing all the things!!
TAKE IT TO THE LORD & ASK HIM: How am I supposed to create this business? With who?
LISTEN: If you don't hear a straight forward answer, go with your gut (based in biblical discernment) & keep praying
TAKE ACTION GOD'S WAY: You focus on the One Thing you are called to & you let go of all the other distractions & idols!! “THINGS HAVE GOT TO DIE FOR NEW THINGS TO BE BORN”
TAKE A LIFE INVENTORY: Where are all places you need something to die?
CARVING OUT TIME TO BE WITH THE LORD, DAILY!
AUDACIOUS PRAYER: Have genuine, honest & private conversations with God
If you felt Holy Spirit tugging on your heart strings at ALL during this interview PLEASE select one of the links below to explore! As you heard in our last episode, I was also resistant to the idea of investing in someone to mentor me through this process, but PRAISE GOD for guiding me to Stefanie! She is truly a bright & shining light for HIS glory & I know you will be blessed by her!

Aloha & Goodmorning Sister!!
Well, now that you know mostly all the things about me & the ways that The Lord has moved in my life in the past, let's journey into the present together!!
In today's episode, I share my heart on what Unabridged Faith means to me & where it came from! It is everything I always wanted to share, but never had the correct words for!! I also share the definition, because if you are anything like me, I was not so sure about what it meant when I first heard it!!
Trust God & ENJOY!!

Your Sister,
Paige!!
