Hello friends,
Happy New Week! I’m here again with another episode of the podcast and I really enjoyed having this conversation. This is episode 18 and the 6th episode of season 2. If this is your first time here, you are welcome once again, and I urge you to go listen to all 12 episodes in Season 1 and the other episodes in Season 2 before this one. If you’ve already been following the podcast, thank you for coming back and I can’t wait for us to journey along once again on another season.
Life moves fast. Schedules fill up, distractions multiply, and before we know it, our spiritual lives can start to feel crowded and disconnected.
That’s why this week’s 6eleven Life Podcast episode, “Creating Space for Godliness and Sanctification,” is one you don’t want to miss.
In this episode, I’m inviting you to slow down, breathe, and reflect on what it truly means to make room for God to work in your heart, to grow in holiness, and to live a life that reflects Jesus in a noisy, self-focused world.
What This Episode Is About
In this heartfelt conversation, I break down two powerful biblical truths: godliness and sanctification.
You’ll hear:
- What it means to live a godly and sanctified life in today’s culture.
- How Jesus modeled true godliness through humility, obedience, and love.
- Examples from Scripture — like Daniel, Mary, Joseph, and Paul — who lived set-apart lives in the midst of worldly pressure.
- Practical, faith-filled steps to help you make space for spiritual growth, even in the busyness of everyday life.
- [Host’s Name]’s personal journey of learning how to let go of distractions and create room for God’s transforming work.
What It Means to Create Space for God
So many of us want to grow spiritually but growth can’t happen if there’s no space for it.
Creating space for Godliness means removing what competes for your heart and inviting God to shape who you’re becoming.
As James 4:8 reminds us:
“Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.”
It’s not about perfection — it’s about proximity.
The closer you get to God, the more you reflect His character.
Sanctification is that ongoing journey of becoming more like Christ — of being refined, renewed, and set apart for His purpose.
Key Takeaways
In this episode, you’ll discover how to:
✅ Prioritize your spiritual life amid modern distractions.
✅ Let the Holy Spirit guide your thoughts, habits, and desires.
✅ Build rhythms of prayer, worship, and Scripture reading into your daily routine.
✅ Surround yourself with community that encourages holiness and accountability.
✅ Understand that sanctification is a process — not a race.
Every moment you surrender to God’s presence is a step toward becoming more like Him.
A Word from the me
“Creating space for God isn’t about adding more to your to-do list, it’s about shifting your priorities so that His presence becomes your foundation.
When I started letting go of things that cluttered my heart, the noise, the busyness, the distractions; I began to experience a deeper peace and connection with God than ever before.”

Why This Matters Now
We live in a time when the world constantly tells us to “do more,” “be more,” and “chase more.” But God invites us to something deeper — to be still, to be holy, to be transformed.
As 1 Thessalonians 4:3 says:
“It is God’s will that you should be sanctified.”
This episode reminds us that holiness isn’t outdated — it’s the heartbeat of a life that truly honors God.
Final Thought
You can’t grow what you don’t give space to.
When you create space for God — through prayer, stillness, and surrender — He fills it with grace, strength, and transformation.
This episode will encourage you to pause, realign, and invite God to shape your life from the inside out.
Truth: the busier life gets, the more we need God.
