S2 Ep74: Short Story Wednesday -- You are the ONE Sep 23, 2026

Show notes

A birthday cake. Taco leftovers. An extra pan of lasagna. Sometimes the smallest acts of kindness mean more than we could ever know.

This Short Story Wednesday, Brent and Mikaela revisit Adam Trask’s story of delivering cake ingredients to a man who had been praying for a way to celebrate his wife’s birthday. They also share listeners’ experiences of following a prompting—and showing up with exactly what someone needed.

Together, they reflect on an honest question: With so much suffering in the world, does God still care about our individual needs? A conversation about listening to those quiet nudges, caring for each other, and remembering that you are loved.

S2 Ep73: He Felt Abandoned by God Then He Learned to Listen -- Adam Trask Sep 20, 2026

Show notes

How do you learn to trust God when you’ve spent so much of your life feeling abandoned?

Adam Trask grew up with homelessness, abuse, and addiction in his family. This week, he joins Brent and Mikaela to share how he began recognizing Christ’s presence in his life... and how that changed the way he cares for others.

From birthday-cake ingredients delivered at just the right time to a prompting that helped put his newborn son near lifesaving medical care, Adam’s stories are heartfelt, sometimes hilarious, and full of reasons to show up.

We also talk about marriage, listening without trying to fix everything, and learning that you don’t have to serve perfectly to help someone feel loved.

Be sure to hear Adam’s wife, Elisha, in our previous episode.

Content note: Includes childhood abuse and neglect, substance use and overdose deaths, suicide and suicide loss, fatal accidents, and an infant medical emergency. U.S. crisis support: call or text 988.

S2 Ep72: Angel of the Week -- Kyle & Miranda Sep 18, 2026

Show notes

Thanks for joining us for our very first Angel of the Week! 🤍

This episode was recorded live, but we kept the broadcast private as a test run while we worked out all the details. From here on out, we’ll actually be LIVE with all of you—reading your comments, answering questions, and hopefully sharing some really special moments together.

We haven’t decided on an official day or time yet, but we’ll be announcing that very soon!

For now, we hope you enjoy our very first weekly Angel of the Week.

We all have people in our lives who deserve to know how much they mean to us. Sometimes we just need a reminder to tell them.

Do you have an angel in your life you’d like to nominate? Send us their story at **aaupodcast25@gmail.com**. We would love to hear about them and possibly feature them in an upcoming Angel of the Week.

Thank you for being here and helping us celebrate the incredible people God places in our lives.

Go look for those angels. 🤍

S2 Ep71: SSW Will He Know Me? Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

Will He Know Me?

This week on Short Story Wednesday, Mikaela reads a talk she recently gave at church about what it really means to know Jesus Christ and make Him a part of our homes and our everyday lives.

She shares honestly about infertility, unanswered prayers, imperfect homes, and why following Christ doesn’t mean life will always go the way we hoped. Sometimes the miracle isn’t God removing the trial—sometimes it’s who we become as we walk through it with Him.

No matter how far we’ve wandered, because of Jesus Christ, there is always a road home. 🤍

S2 Ep70: She Prayed... And Two Angels Appeared -- Elisha Trask Sep 13, 2026

Show notes

Elisha Trask grew up surrounded by homelessness, addiction, and abuse. When she was six years old, she prayed for help during a terrifying encounter with her father—and saw two men dressed in white appear behind him.

That moment taught Elisha that she could call on God.

Years later, urgent spiritual impressions would lead her to pray for her son while he was in danger on a mountain, find her toddler moments before a devastating fall, lock a door just before someone tried to enter, and offer messages of love to strangers carrying private grief.

Elisha also shares how Jesus Christ helped her break the cycle of abuse—not by instantly removing every harmful impulse, but by giving her the opportunity to choose a different response.

This tender conversation is an invitation to listen more closely, pray more intentionally, and act when someone is placed on your heart.

Content note: This episode discusses childhood abuse, suicide, sexual assault, addiction, and death.

S2 Ep69: Rewind -- Episode Three -- Teagon Bo Sep 09, 2026

Show notes

For today’s Short Story Wednesday, we’re rewinding to the third and final chapter of our own story—the story that helped inspire Angels Among Us.

Looking back on the miracles that brought our family together still blows us away. We’re grateful for the chance to remember where this journey began, reflect on how far we’ve come, and share it with you once again.

Thank you for being here. We hope you enjoy the final chapter of our story.

Go look for those angels. 🤍

S2 Ep68: "Thomas Isn't Here Yet" -- LaRee Baker Sep 06, 2026

Show notes

After losing multiple babies, LaRee Baker found herself grieving, afraid, and questioning the identity she had built around motherhood. Then, while praying in her closet, she heard a little girl’s voice say, “Thomas isn’t here yet.”

LaRee shares how that moment led her to Thomas, what happened after doctors said he was blind, and the experience that helped her believe the children she lost were still part of her family’s story. She also opens up about postpartum depression following miscarriage, raising children with special needs, receiving help from a neighbor she now calls her angel, and learning to find her identity in God rather than in what she could accomplish.

This is a tender conversation about loss, healing, motherhood, heavenly and human angels, and the God who holds us in our pain.

Content note: This episode discusses miscarriage, infant and childhood loss, postpartum depression, disability, and difficult pregnancies.

S2 Ep67: Short Story Wednesday -- The Beach & Big Goals Sep 02, 2026

Show notes

This week’s Short Story Wednesday is a little different. We’re sharing two recent moments from our own lives that have had us thinking a lot about gratitude, purpose, and what might be ahead.

First, we share a little about our recent trip to the Oregon Coast—a place that holds a lot of meaning for Mikaela. Years ago, she went there during one of the hardest seasons of our infertility journey, wondering why the one thing she wanted most still hadn’t happened. Seven years later, we returned to that same beach with our two kids running through the sand.

It was a beautiful reminder that some of the things we have today are the very things we once prayed desperately for.

Then we share some pretty big dreams for the future of Angels Among Us. We don’t just want to grow a podcast—we want to use this platform to become angels for other people. Whether that means helping with groceries or bills, helping a family with adoption or IVF, or simply being there for someone who needs it.

We don’t know exactly where this journey will take us, but we’re putting the dream out there—and we’re grateful you’re along for it.

Go look for those angels. 🤍

S2 Ep66: 12 Hours Later... A Miracle -- Hunter Rasmussen Aug 30, 2026

Show notes

In a matter of seconds, Hunter Rasmussen’s life changed forever.

While hunting with his cousin, Hunter was accidentally shot in the leg. As he was being carried toward a Life Flight helicopter, unsure of what was going to happen, he asked God, “Is everything going to be okay?”

The answer came clearly: “Hunter, everything’s gonna be okay. It’s gonna work out.”

What followed included emergency surgery, the loss of his leg, an incredibly difficult recovery, and moments that tested Hunter physically, emotionally, and spiritually. But through it all, that simple promise stayed with him.

In this episode, Hunter shares the remarkable circumstances surrounding his rescue, the angels he believes were working on his behalf, and the faith that helped him move forward when his life suddenly looked completely different than he had planned.

Hunter’s story is a powerful reminder that God’s promise that things will work out doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll work out the way we expect—but it does mean He can be with us through all of it.

Go look for those angels. 🤍

S2 Ep65: Short Story Wednesday on a Thursday Aug 27, 2026

Show notes

Short Story Wednesday… on a Thursday. 😂

This week we're sharing a few life updates, an incredible act of generosity from one of our own “angels,” and a simple challenge that we're bringing into our home: choosing a scripture each week to ponder, memorize, and carry with us.

And this week's scripture couldn't fit Angels Among Us any better:

“Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.” — 2 Kings 6:16

Sometimes we can only see what's right in front of us. But what if we could see everything God has placed around us? What if our eyes were opened, like Elisha's servant, to see that we have never been as alone as we thought?

We hope you'll join us in “ponderizing” a scripture each week—and maybe start with this one.

Go look for those angels. 🤍
