Intentional Grounding - Letters to Isaiah

In this episode of Intentional Grounding, we break down something unexpected — how the simple, chaotic, competitive game of UNO gives us a powerful blueprint for understanding our faith.

From the moment the cards are dealt to the final shout of “UNO!”, this game mirrors the way God shapes us, guides us, strengthens us, and walks us through the ups and downs of life.

We explore:

• You don’t choose your starting hand — but God can use every card you’re given.
• Every card has a purpose — the wins, the losses, the delays, the lessons, the struggles.
• Draw Twos and Draw Fours — when life piles on and God uses it to grow us.
• Skip cards — the closed doors that were actually God’s protection.
• Reverse cards — the moments God sends us back to heal, restore, and realign.
• Wild Cards — the unexpected shifts that launch us into our calling.
• The “one card left” seasons — when breakthrough is near and the enemy tries to distract us.
• Finishing the game — why God cares more about faithfulness than perfection.

This episode reminds you that God is not surprised by your hand.
He’s not confused by your story.
He’s not intimidated by your struggle.

He can use every card in your life — every season, every moment — to bring you closer to your purpose.

Whether you’re in a Draw Four moment, a Skip season, or standing on the edge of breakthrough, this conversation will encourage you to stay in the game, trust God’s strategy, and play the hand He gave you with faith and confidence.

Share this with someone who needs a reminder that God can use all things — even UNO — to teach us how to walk with Him.
