Episode 309: Roger Bennett from Men In Blazers Aug 11, 2021

Y'all know I love soccer but one of the reasons AMERICA is falling more in love with soccer is because of today's guest, Roger Bennett. Co-host of the Men in Blazers podcast and television show, Roger's new book, and this conversation, tell a beautiful story of growing up and longing for a different life. No matter your thoughts on the soccer, the wisdom Rog brings today about life and transitions and courage and America will mean a lot to you. I totally teared up in this one- what a gift this conversation is- and yes, we do some soccer talk that I think you're gonna love. And if you enjoy this conversation, I bet you'll enjoy his book Reborn in the USA!

It's time to kickoff a really fun month here on the pod! ENNEASUMMER2021! We will spend the next few Mondays and Fridays talking about the enneagram with friends of each type and especially focusing on where each number goes in security and stress.

Dear friends, today we have a conversation about suicide. I want you to know that up front, so that you can listen without miniBFFs and know going into it what the topic is.

Happy Thanksgiving, friends! No one better to chat with today than Kimberly Williams-Paisley! Not only do we talk long about Father of The Bride, we also discuss her TWO Christmas movies (they are SO GOOD!), life in Nashville with kids and husband Brad Paisley- their story of meeting is INCREDIBLE, and most importantly, food insecurity across our nation.

Episode 256: 2020 US Election with Gabe Lyons Oct 29, 2020

This is the beginning, not the end, of our 2020 US Election conversation. (We have two more shows planned with two of my favorite political experts around the inauguration in January!) Y'all have heard me talking about this a bit, but my real prayer and hope is that we can hang onto our faith and friendships through this election season. Gabe Lyons, author, speaker, and founder of Q Ideas, is here to talk us through the election through the eyes of our Christian faith, answers some hard questions, and leaves us with a lot of hope.

It is such an honor to have one of my favorite novelists on the podcast today! Karen Kingsbury is a #1 New York Times Bestselling author and her Baxter family of characters are many of our favorite friends that we don't really know (LOL)! Today Karen and I talk about her new novel, Truly, Madly, Deeply, her family, COVID, and a plethora of other things! She's wonderful! Enjoy!

(As mentioned in the intro, we talk a bit about policemen and police work because the main character in her new novel is a policeman. You may want to listen to this one without your kids the first time just so that you know how you want to have the follow up conversation. While we may not all agree with every guest, I hope you'll listen along with open ears and heart.)

These are some of my very favorite ladies ever. Point of Grace is a group that has been singing in my ears for decades, but the real joy was when I got to tour with them about a decade ago. They are absolutely wonderful. You're going to love this conversation with Denise, Shelley, and Leigh. Their new book How You Live is so helpful- like coffee with three really wise older sisters. This conversation was just as comforting and fun. Love them so much.

I know him as the guy who volunteers in our church's kids area. We've known each other for a while but our friendship grew three sizes today, just in our Hamilton conversation! :)

By the way, this is a great conversation for the whole family, but I do think maybe adults want to listen before my #miniBFFs listen as we discuss racism and how to love our neighbors well. We go deep on this convo and I'm grateful for Tyler's faith and his words.

EnneaSummer2020: Sevens Jul 30, 2020

Saving the best for last! (JUST KIDDING, I know, not fair, I'm a 7.) :) Each show this year has been incredibly insightful and helpful and I today's stays that same course. It's the first time THREE of the same number have sat around the microphones this year, but Erin, Setnick, and I dove deep into the minds of sevens, what makes their day and what breaks their hearts. Three very different perspectives to end our EnneaSummer. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!

EnneaSummer2020: Sixes Jul 27, 2020

I love sitting down with two enneagram 6s and hearing and seeing the world through their eyes for a couple of minutes. Curtis and Laura are smart and healthy and kind and vulnerable- giving us real insight into the life of a person who identifies as a six. I feel more prepared to face my day and more cognizant and aware and so grateful for these friends! The way they experience God and the world... fascinating, y'all!

I know the sacrifice our #EnneaSummer2020 Enneagram 5 friends are making, stepping up to the microphone and lending their stories to us today.

As promised, Jon Tyson is back on the show to pick up where we left off this spring. I absolutely love learning from him- whether through podcasts like this or messages he preaches online- but his new book Beautiful Resistance seems like a handbook for these days we are living. I teared up twice in this conversation. I feel really grateful- what an absolute gift it is for us to be led and encouraged by Jon.

EnneaSummer2020: Fours Jul 20, 2020

This is the only episode we recorded long distance, and that's just how #EnneaSummer2020 Enneagram 4s like it, right? Annie and Stew join us from two different cities to tell us about the creative, thoughtful, deep life of a 4. I absolutely loved listening to them get to know each other and connect and become friends- maybe the highlight of the whole conversation. What a gift these 4s (and all 4s!) are to the rest of us!

Y'all aren't even ready for the high level of awesome our #EnneaSummer2020 Enneagram 3s bring today. Confident but humble, kind and thoughtful, Candice and Taylor are genuinely two of the best.

EnneaSummer2020: Ones Jul 09, 2020

Today's conversation with the Enneagram Ones absolutely blew my mind. I learned so much from Sarah and Dan and I just absolutely loved that they both showed up with the questions answered on a piece of paper, printed out, ready to go. Ones are just the best- bringing their truth and heart. Whether you are a one or if you love a one, this show will be so helpful.

Episode 227: Nona Jones Jun 04, 2020

It's been about a year since I met Nona Jones and I've loved getting to know her, learn from her, and laugh with her. We've been trying for months to get our calendars to sync for this conversation, ever since her incredible book Success from the Inside Out released in January, and everything aligned a few weeks ago.

We talk about COVID19, her health journey, how her traveling schedule has changed and what she's learning about herself in that, and how Facebook is helping churches in these weeks where church isn't in a building.

While we recorded the original conversation in early May, we both thought it would be important to check in again yesterday and I wanted to hear her thoughts on what is happening in our world today. I'm grateful for her honesty and thoughts.

Episode 221: Eugene Cho May 11, 2020

I greatly admire Pastor Eugene Cho- for his preaching, his leadership, his writing, his obedience, his advocacy. Every time I've been under his teaching I've left changed, including this conversation today. It's important. I hope you will listen, take notes, and ask yourself the same question I'm asking myself- what does it look like for me to use the privilege I have to advocate for those who don't?

Pastor Eugene's newest book, Thou Shall Not Be a Jerk, is available everywhere. We also hop over to continue our chat on YouTube, so check that out and subscribe there so you don't miss any of these special additional conversations!

I am alllll the way here for this conversation with Pastor Michael Todd from Transformation Church about dating, singleness, and marriage. He is just one of my favorite voices to the church and I absolutely LOVE (and you will too) his energy and heart and humor. The volume of our voices are about the same so prepare yourself. Michael's new book Relationship Goals is the next book you need to read.

(Quick note to the parents of my #miniBFFs... we talk about sex in marriage, so you may want to listen without little ears the first time. I don't want to trigger a "birds and bees" talk if you aren't ready for that LOL.)

We're also over on YouTube talking BREAKUPS woof but excellent. Join us there? YouTube.com/anniefdownstsf

Episode 214: Stacey Morgan Apr 16, 2020

In February, when the Love Better Tour swung through Houston, we had the absolute honor of visiting Johnson Space Center, home of NASA. And that is where I met Stacey Morgan, wife of astronaut Dr. Drew Morgan.

And right now, Thursday April 16, as you are listening, Drew is headed back to Earth from the International Space Station, for the first time in almost 10 months. That also means that Stacey has been a single mom for 10 months in a different kind of deployment scenario (though they've done military deployment too).

Stacey and I became super fast friends and I knew I wanted you to hear their story, especially on this really special day. I cannot wait to hear your thoughts on this episode! And make sure you check in to watch Drew's landing the morning of April 17th!

(Stacey and I also did a fun quick video about how she has prepared Drew to return to the Earth culturally- like sharing Tiger King with him LOL- over on YouTube. Check it out- YouTube.com/anniefdownstsf.)

We are back! (Hope you are too.) We are still at home! Hope you are too. :)

Episode 213: Jon Tyson Apr 13, 2020

The day after Easter, in the middle of a worldwide pandemic, what does it all mean spiritually? And how should we pray? And is this the start of revival? WHAT DO WE NOT KNOW HERE.

I've long wanted to have Jon Tyson, author and pastor of Church of the City New York, on the podcast. He's one of my all time favorite pastors, and he has done the WORK to be an expert for us on revival and prayer and the ways of God. ALERT THIS IS A NOTE TAKER EPISODE. You're gonna want to remember lots of this.

Check out Jon's books, and he'll be back later in the summer to talk about his newest one, Beautiful Resistance.

TSF Quarantine Episode 19: (3rd) Friday with Eddie Apr 03, 2020

From baby goats to jazz leadership.

Love y'all. See you Monday, April 13th.

TSF Quarantine Episode 18: (3rd) Thursday with Eddie Apr 02, 2020

Embarrassing stories and donuts and food trucks. Another normal day around here.

Episode 212: Charles Martin + The Water Keeper Apr 02, 2020

If something happens twice, can we call it a tradition? :) Because I love the idea of Charles Martin always being our last conversation before Holy Week and Easter. It happened in April 2019 and again today. With tons of compassion and wisdom and kindness, Charles talks to us through this unknown pandemic season with the hope of the One who knows it all.

His new novel The Water Keeper releases next month, and I would HIGHLY encourage you to grab a copy of What If It's True? to read through between Palm Sunday and Easter.

Speaking of next week- we won't have normal Monday or Thursday shows, and there won't be any #TSFQuarantine shows, but each day, starting Sunday, April 5 (Palm Sunday) to Sunday, April 12 (Easter), I'll be reading the story from that day in the Gospels. Something is recorded in Scripture every day from of that globe-shaking week, and we'll hear it straight from the Bible.

LOTS of breakfast talk (with two adorable visitors) and some heroes and a last resort offer for Tim and his fiancé.

Episode 211: Ellie Holcomb + Don't Forget To Remember Mar 30, 2020

Gracious I adore Ellie Holcomb, and getting to chat with her in these uncertain and sometimes scary days is such a gift. She's homeschooling her kids, like many of y'all, and trying to balance all the things. Ellie gives so much hope today for all of us, no matter what our shelter-in-place situation is like. (And a few fun pop-ins from her kids!)

Ellie's new children's book Don't Forget To Remember is a favorite of our #miniBFFBookClub and is perfect to read to your children right now.

TSF Quarantine Episode 12: (2nd) Thursday with Eddie Mar 26, 2020

How do we help doctors and nurses? 7 minutes of serious that goes longer than 7 minutes.

Episode 210: John Eldredge Mar 26, 2020

I fangirl hard today on this episode with John Eldredge. His writings, his podcast, his teachings- his work has shaped my heart for two decades and I'm so grateful. While we recorded this conversation before COVID19 was the pandemic it is today, these words were perfectly meant for today. John is about to invite you to think through the importance of whole-heartedness and what it is like to be a human right now.

His new book Get Your Life Back is an absolute gift. Here are the other resources that I think will help you right now:

TSF Quarantine Episode 10: (2nd) Tuesday with Eddie Mar 24, 2020

The real question remains- does Producer Chad wear joggers or leggings? And we lament the loss of sports, particularly the Olympics 2020 (news hot off the presses), and what I will do as soon as quarantine ends tomorrow (though "shelter in place" continues).

TSF Quarantine Episode 9: (2nd) Monday with Eddie Mar 23, 2020

Two adorable sweet guests, breakfast talk, a baseball mystery to be solved, and some big heroes.

Episode 209: Lisa Whittle + Jesus Over Everything Mar 23, 2020

For starters, I just want to be real clear that Lisa and I recorded this episode when she was in Nashville two weeks ago, before corona virus was the center of all conversations and before I was quarantined. So please forgive the moments that sound a bit tone deaf, we had no idea what today would bring when we were together two weeks ago.

Lisa Whittle is one of my favorite voices in the faith space right now. Her new book Jesus Over Everything is honestly exactly what we need right now. I think this book will really give you some hope and some help. Grab a copy today!

On the sixth day of recording, we discuss early mornings and brownies and why we fight with people we love and thank the grocery store workers. It's a mess. You're welcome.

Y'all have yelled at me, in very sweet ways, to have Morgan Harper Nichols on the podcast and YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND! Her art and poetry is literally breathing life into my bones this week. Her new book is a must-order for us in this season on the planet- All Along You Were Blooming. It's gorgeous- just like the heart in this friend.

This is SUCH a fun episode for the middle of the weirdest thing we've all lived through together- Katie Peslis is an absolute GEM and one of the most talented vocalists I've ever known. She sings SPOT ON like Karen Carpenter, hence the entire tribute album. (And yes, her husband was just on tour with me so may the circles of friendship be unbroken and TIGHTLY KNIT.) Make sure you check out Katie's music and follow her for upcoming tour dates!

Episode 206: Robin Dance Mar 12, 2020

Robin Dance is one of my first friends in the blogger space, way back in the 2000s. She brings a fun conversation, some brave words, and lots of good thoughts and I think you're just going to love her. Her new book For All Who Wander is a great read.

Episode 205: Sissy Goff + Raising Brave Kids Mar 09, 2020

There is no one I know that is as much an expert on raising kids as Sissy Goff. Over twenty years of counseling children and loving families and she knows what to say to us, what to say to kids, and what to say to ourselves about raising kids in 2020. Her book, Raising Worry-Free Girls, is great for any of us that are a part of a kid's village (boys or girls!). I cannot wait to hear your thoughts on this one.

Episode 204: Melanie Shankle + On The Bright Side Mar 05, 2020

Get ready to laugh, y'all. Melanie Shankle cracks me up more than most do (and y'all know I'm an easy laugh). We've been friends since before we had these jobs and it's always fun to talk to someone you've walked over a decade with. Her new book, On The Bright Side, is a real special thing. I think you're going to love it.

(Because we recorded this show before Monday, there is no mention of the tornado that passed through Nashville this week. But thank you for all your kind words and prayers as our church and city begin a rebuilding and healing journey we didn't ever expect.)

It's been such a while that I've wanted to sit down and talk with David Kinnaman. He's the president of Barna Group, he writes books I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, and he's just brilliant.

And you can keep up with their family-

TSF Couples 2020: Sadie Robertson Huff + Christian Huff Feb 27, 2020

This one is just sweet and special and inspiring and I absolutely LOVE when Sadie Robertson Huff and I get to chat... this one is extra awesome because her new husband Christian Huff is here with us as well! We talk dating and God and marriage and then we get a special visit from an office friend who eavesdropped and had some thoughts to include. It's a packed show, y'all!

Sadie also has a new book out called LIVE- make sure you grab a copy today!

TSF Couples 2020: Propaganda + Dr. Alma Zaragoza-Petty Feb 24, 2020

I have long long long wanted to have Propaganda on the podcast, and this was just perfect to have him for Couples Month, since his wife Dr. Alma Zaragoza-Petty was available to hop on the microphones with us too. Marriage, family, boundaries, we go to all the places in this conversation. (And we're giving this one a PG rating, so for my miniBFFs out there, maybe Mom and Dad should give a listen first.) Prop and Alma have their own podcast- The Red Couch Podcast- that you should give a listen! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on this one!

Y'all I am so in love with this episode. Addison Bevere swung through the studio when he was in Nashville and we planned to release the show in March... well then his wife Julianna was with him and we turned her microphone on and MY GOSH it is a brilliant show. His recently released book Saints is one of my favorite new books- I think you'll totally love it.

TSF Couples 2020: Jacks + Shawl from Bubbly Sesh Feb 17, 2020

We ticked off all the boxes on this one- yes, a couple so that works for February (AND I LOVE JACKS AND SHAWL!) and a Hallmark conversation like we talked about having more than just at Christmas, lots of laughs and great conversations and Brendan Penny talk, so all is well. Learning how to work together and laugh together and build a project together (like The Bubbly Sesh!) is pretty impressive- I love what I get to learn from these two! Definitely check out their podcast and listen, I just watched The Secret Ingredient and it may be my new favorite. HALLMARK I LOVE YOU MORE EVERY DAY.

TSF Couples 2020: Jay + Katherine Wolf Feb 13, 2020

Put this episode in the most requested guest category because Y'ALL LOVE THE WOLFS. Of course I wanted to have them on- so your wish is my command! We had the best time chatting, me in Nashville and them in Atlanta, about our friendship history, how they met, life before and after her stroke, and what it really means to suffer strong. These folks are two of my heroes.

TSF Couples 2020: Matthew West + Emily West Feb 10, 2020

I am so so thrilled to have amazing singer/songwriter Matthew West and his wife Emily on the podcast today. (It's Emily's FIRST EVER POD INTERVIEW so y'all be extra sweet to her.) But that will be easy because she is amazing. This whole conversation is. From dating to Nashville, from picking a church (I think many of y'all will relate to the fears of vulnerability we talk about there) to praying for your kids to songwriting to the Grammys... we go all the places. Matthew has a new album releasing Friday that I think you're going to love called Brand New. Make sure you grab a copy!

And yes. I had one major complaint with Matthew, but we saved that for YouTube... go check it out! :)

TSF Couples 2020: Amanda + Raechel from SheReadsTruth Feb 06, 2020

I love having Amanda Bible Williams and Raechel Myers on the podcast- especially when we get to celebrate couples (co-workers definitely count!) and with the season of Lent approaching, we have A LOT to discuss. I just love love love having Amanda and Raechel on the show. I think this is our best one yet.

(And just to note, towards the beginning of this one, we talk about the loss of a child and how to parent the other children when there is a tragedy or loss. Was reminded by a listener friend that some of y'all may want a heads up about that.

As always these sweet friends showed up with an excellent discount code for you- FUN20 will get you 20% off of everything (except subscription boxes) at shopshereadstruth.com! Grab your Lent studies and She and He Bibles and prep for those Easter baskets and graduations!

Couples Month is one of my favorite series of the year and this first episode of February is a excellent way to start. Chris and Emily Norton are known for their viral videos, but gracious after an hour with them it's so clear they are so much more. Their book The Seven Longest Yards is such an interesting read. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this conversation and these amazing people.

And don't forget we've got a few more questions with the Nortons over on the AFD YouTube page! I think you'll enjoy this continued conversation...

Episode 202: Beth Moore Jan 30, 2020

What an absolute honor to have Beth Moore on the podcast today. Y'all have requested this conversation since about day 1 and I've hoped for it about that long, too. Beth has been one of the most influential voices in my life when it comes to faith and spiritual growth, and this conversation changed me. Her new book Chasing Vines is an excellent read and I think you will learn so much from it. Please take time today to thank Beth for her investment in your life and the ways her work and this conversation have helped you. She's sure helped me. I'm forever grateful.

Episode 200: Jarrett Stevens Jan 23, 2020

We seem to have fallen into a pretty cool theme of prayer lately, and today is going to help us with that for sure. Whether you are new to prayer or have spent lots of time doing it already, Jarrett Stevens has some amazing thoughts and challenges for us. This one conversation has already pretty massively affected my prayer life. His new book Praying Through would be a great resource for anyone thinking of growing or changing their prayer habits.

One of my favorite parts of this pod life is sharing music that I absolutely love, and Tauren Wells is at the tip top of that list.

Chatting with Tauren about theology and friendship and marriage and how to read the Bible... gracious this one is gold from start to finish.

I'm so excited to be headed out on tour with Jonathan Pokluda, Mike Grayson, and Cheryl Stark. We were in the office planning for the tour and I said, "you guys, let's just go sit down in the podcast studio and record this!" So that's what we've got for you- the conversation we were having around the table eating barbecue. What it means for us to love better, why we want to tour together, and dating thoughts... we've got lots of them. :)

We'd love to have you join us on the tour- grab your tickets here!

2019 Year In Review with Eddie Kaufholz Dec 30, 2019

What choice did we have but to have Eddie Kaufholz back on the podcast to help us wrap up 2019? We talk down all the big topics that matter and don't matter and pretty much sort out everything about the last decade as we head into the next one. Always grateful for when Eddie makes me laugh AND cry.

(We also have a little drop in from our buddy Andy Barron... so that's a special year end treat!)

Happy New Year, friends!
