Episode 467: J.D. Greear on Paul, Perseverance in Hard Times, and God's Desire for Us to Know Him May 08, 2023

Show notes

Pastor J.D. Greear and I came in HOT talking all about Paul, why it's important to teach on the book of Romans, and how drawing near to Jesus refines our belief system. This is such a helpful conversation and I think you're going to like this one. J.D.'s book Essential Christianity is so good! I'm so thankful for J.D. and his leadership.

Episode 466: Rebekah Lyons on What Resiliency Looks Like, Getting in a Rhythm of Confession, and What it Looks Like to Age Well May 04, 2023

Show notes

My girl, Rebekah Lyons, is here today to talk about ALL the themes we've been chatting about lately - resiliency, confession, AND aging! Let's goooo! We also got to talk about walking through weathering seasons of our lives, asking God for the truth instead of believe our own lies, and finding beauty even in the hard days. I'm so thankful for the way Rebekah teaches and leads us through the honesty of her book Building a Resilient Life. It's a good one, y'all!

Episode 464: Dr. Nijay Gupta on What We Learn From Women in the Bible Apr 27, 2023

Show notes

This episode has our entire staff buzzing with thoughtful conversation! Dr. Nijay Gupta is here to talk with us about studying Scripture on complex issues, the importance of Deborah's leadership and Phoebe's role in spreading the Gospel, and the purposeful diversity in Jesus' parables. Ya'll...this is a FASCINATING conversation. I can't wait for you to get to know Nijay and hear his wisdom. Nijay's book Tell Her Story is incredible and so important!

Just a reminder that even though this topic may feel new to you or you may disagree with some of the ideas in this conversation, I invite all of us (myself included!) to engage with curiosity and openness as we learn and grow together.

Show notes

Y'all are not ready for all the ways that our minds are about to be blown with all of the knowledge, research, wisdom and inspiration Dr. Jeremiah Johnston brings in this episode! We could have gone on for HOURS talking about Jesus--His death and resurrection--and all the evidence to support them. More than that, though, he shares with us all that the truth of the Gospel means for us, and it's just beautiful. I can't wait for you to get to know Dr. Jeremiah Johnston, to grab his new book Body of Proof, and to drop all the mind-blown emojis when you hear all he has to share!

Show notes

It's safe to say that this conversation with Nashville SC Captain and 2022 U.S. Mens National team member Walker Zimmerman and his wife Sally is an absolute dream! We talk about how to navigate change that's both difficult and exciting, what it looks like to achieve your dreams (this answer may surprise you!), and how to deal with public criticism. Also, you just MIGHT hear me ask them a question no one's ever asked them before! Their answer inspires me and teaches me, and it's going to make you guys love them just as much as we do!

Show notes

I can't wait for you to hear this episode. My new friend Jasmine Holmes is in the studio to talk all about what exactly shame is and the Gospel antidote for it. Jasmine's Christ-centered and Gospel-driven book, Never Cast Out is truly one of the finest books on shame I've ever read. It is powerful, and impactful, and incredibly brave.
