Have you ever felt lost trying to figure out what it really means to follow Jesus?
Do you wonder if the Bible can be trusted or what exactly the gospel is?
Maybe you’ve carried hurt from past religion or the LDS (Mormon) church and secretly wish there was a “Christianity for beginners” guide that made it all clear.
This podcast is your safe space to take baby steps in faith and finally understand what it means to be a Christian.
Inside Finding Faith Above, you’ll learn the Christian basics for new believers—who God is, why the gospel matters, and how to walk with Jesus day by day without overwhelm or confusion.
If you’ve longed for peace, truth, and confidence in your relationship with Christ, this is where you’ll find it.
I’m Shelby Hohsfield, a former Mormon who spent 20 years after leaving the chruch searching through religion, doubt, and confusion before finding freedom in the true gospel of Jesus Christ. I know what it feels like to start from scratch, to question everything, and to need things explained simply.
That’s why I created this podcast—to walk with you as you grow in faith, learn truth from Scripture, and experience the love of Jesus for yourself.
So grab your Bible and hit play.
It’s time to take your first baby steps toward real faith, real freedom, and the real Jesus.
xoxo, Shelby

ABOUT YOUR HOST
Finding Faith Above is hosted by Shelby Hohsfield. Shelby grew up in a mixed-faith home and attended the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormon or LDS) church until she was 18. As most people do when they leave the church, 85% actually, Shelby left God altogether when she left the LDS church. It wasn’t until she was pregnant with her son that God was made evident to her.
From there sparked a quest to FIND FAITH, a fleeting idea that challenged her at every step.
After trying all matters of religion for years, she was struck one night when some big things literally brought her to her knees- When things got super hard, it was the surrender to the one true God that changed everything about Shelby’s life, belief, and understanding of this universe we live in.
After a 20-year journey after leaving the church, she finally found faith above.
As Jesus asked us to do, Shelby now dedicates herself to the great commission- telling the world the good news of Jesus.

Pride- Possibly and quite literally the root of all evil. People say money, they say power, they say greed or lust, but when you really peal back the layers and look at what brings us down, every day- is pride.
In the last episode, we talked about the 5 steps to finding faith. Today we are taking a closer look at the first of these 5 steps- Acknowledging Pride.

You decide to leave the church, the beliefs, or the cultural construct of your childhood. It makes sense, right?
They tell you that you don't have enough faith. You just need to have faith and know that it will all work out.
But you don’t have faith.
Is there something wrong with you? Why can you just not feel this faith that is supposed to be a part of your consciousness?
You might even consider this ‘deconstructing’- reevaluating what it is you do believe.
You think it’s time I find my own faith. And dear friend, that is where the Devil finds his in.
Today- We are getting super real about the Secret to Faith and the one thing you just might not expect.

We can’t help it. Today, we are all about our dreams, our plans, what we envisioned for ourselves, our life.
And we saw it going a specific way.
And if God was going to interfere, it was going to be with blessings and only blessings.
But that's not quite how life often works out, is it?
Truth is God already has a plan for us. It’s not a plan we have to follow, like rules.
No, it is His divine sovereignty over everything.
So in today's episode, we give a moment of silence to our dead plans and cheers to trusting God.

When we are in need, do we actually trust?
Are we just hoping for a change, a miracle, for God to step in?
Or do we believe that He will be our rock, our refuge, our sanctuary?

After leaving the church, spoiler- my life was not automatically great, faith-filled, and full of Christ. Not even close. I talk about leaving and that it took me 20 years to find Jesus, but I rarely talk about what happened in those 20 years.
Who was I, and what mistakes did I make with a family in tow?
What was the biggest mistake I made on my faith journey? The answer may surprise you.
