Episode 446: David Platt on What We Can Do For Unreached People Groups, Developing Muscles for Having Hard Conversations, and What Should Unify Us vs. What Should Divide Us Mar 02, 2023

Show notes

He's one of my favorite pastors, authors, and fellow Georgia Bulldogs (GOOO DAWWWGGS!!). David Platt is back on the podcast to talk about unreached people groups, being aware of the history around us and living in light of those things, and what it looks like to honor brothers and sisters who feel differently about experiences than we do. David's newest book Don't Hold Back is incredible. I highlighted, underlined, and cried all the way through it. I highly recommend grabbing a copy to read this weekend!

Head over to Urgentneeds.org to see the Radical campaign to reach unreached people that David talked about.

Episode 443: Beth Moore on Miracles and Tragedies that are All Knotted-Up Feb 23, 2023

Show notes

Oh friends. This is a special one. Beth Moore is a real faith hero of mine and I'm so grateful to Beth for her vulnerability and wisdom in this conversation. Her newest book, All My Knotted-Up Life: A Memoir is poignant and important. It's a beautiful and redemptive story and I am so excited to share it with you.

(FYI we jump into some pretty deep and tough topics today such as sexual abuse. These topics may be tender to you, so I wanted you to know before you listened so you could care for yourself well. And, for our #miniBFFs, this show may be a bit much for their little ears.)

Episode 442: Sharon McMahon on Presidents, Current Events, and Our Responsibility as Everyday Americans Feb 20, 2023

Show notes

There's no better way to spend Presidents' Day than talking to Sharon McMahon! Sharon teaches us about the history of Presidents' Day and balancing disagreeing with someone's actions while honoring their contributions. And we FOR SURE had to talk about her recent experience at the State of the Union, certain things floating in the sky lately, classified documents...YOU GET IT... I just love Sharon and I love listening to her podcast Here's Where It Gets Interesting. She's truly America's favorite government teacher!

Show notes

My dear friend, Kelly Minter, stopped by the studio just a couple days ago and we sat down to chat all about the Amazon rainforest, the Beatitudes, and using the Sermon on the Mount in prayer. Jesus is having QUITE the moment lately, isn't He? Kelly's new book The Blessed Life is so good and would make the perfect gift to a loved one in your life (or yourself!).
