Episode 29 | What Men Wish Women Knew About Kindness Apr 23, 2021

Show notes

This is a conversation you CANNOT miss! We’re all about kind women, but what do guys make of this pursuit of kindness? Tammy invites Pastor Alfredo Ramos, Sandals Church Palm Avenue Campus Pastor, to the mic for a REAL conversation on what men see in kind women and yup, what they make of unkindness among us. Tune in for some mic drop moments and a perspective on kindness that will have you thinking twice about choosing anything but.

Episode 28 | Surviving Unkindness Apr 16, 2021

Show notes

Even though we wish it wasn’t so, unkindness happens. We can’t control what others do BUT we can choose how we respond. Will unkindness define us or refine us? Will it make us bitter or better? No one understands unkindness more than Jesus and so, there’s no one who can help us handle the hurt like Him. Join Tammy and Melody for a REAL conversation on how we can not only pursue truth, but seek growth and healing when we invite God into the process of surviving unkindness.

Episode 27 | Why Kindness? Because it Matters to God Apr 09, 2021

Show notes

Kindness is more than something we do. Rather, it’s the way we live. When we choose kindness, and when we don’t, we send a message about who God is to us and how He’s at work in our lives. We can talk to people about Jesus, but they’ll actually listen when they see Him in the way we speak, act and live. If kindness matters to God, it should matter to us. Join Tammy and special guest, Christina Crowley, for a REAL conversation on cultivating kindness into our lives as a spiritual discipline and response to what God has done for us.

Episode 26 | Kindness: It’s More than Being Nice Apr 02, 2021

Show notes

We live in a world that’s pressuring us to mold our image to fit its ideas. Sure, it’s great to be nice, but what does it mean to pursue kindness as a demonstration of our convictions and character? Kindness is more than a trending hashtag, it’s a calling from Jesus and the story our lives tell. We’re kicking off a month long series on all matters of kindness by busting kindness myths. Join Tammy Brown and Melody Workman for a REAL conversation on what kindness is, what it is NOT and how we can choose to live it out for ourselves, God and others.

Episode 25 | How To Gatekeep Your Life with Gratitude NOT Guilt. Mar 26, 2021

Show notes

We’re concluding our series on gatekeeping by tackling the g-word...guilt. As with any discipline, gatekeeping takes practice. It’s about progress, not perfection. Too often, we’re plagued by guilt for choosing what’s healthy for us over what makes everyone else happy. Our life matters and Jesus gave up His own SO THAT we can live with fullness and abundance, with gratitude not guilt. Join Tammy Brown, Melody Workman and Tiffany Parry, our Cultivate Ministry Supervisor, for a REAL conversation on how to steward our boundaries as well as support others in the pursuit of theirs.

Episode 24 | Protecting your Peace: Gatekeeping Your Emotional Health Mar 19, 2021

Show notes

Being a gatekeeper of our lives takes practice and discipline, especially when it comes to our emotional health. Healthy boundaries begin with us learning how to process our feelings through our faith, then cultivating the truth of God’s word into our lives. No one else can order our priorities and protect our peace. Are you the “fixer” of everyone who is left weary and worn? Is your social media scroll stressing you out? Does your body pay the price for your runaway thought life? Join Tammy, Melody and special guest, Vivi Diaz, for a REAL conversation on the blessing of boundaries and how God can use them to protect us mind, body and soul.

Episode 023 | Setting Boundaries or Building Walls: Gatekeeping your Relational Health Mar 12, 2021

Show notes

We continue our series on gatekeeping by taking a closer look at our relationships. Whether you’re already setting wise boundaries or you’re too busy building walls, if you long for healthy and whole relationships, this is a REAL conversation for you. Tammy is joined by Melody Workman to talk friendship, feedback and following through on what is most healthy for you.

Episode 022 | No More Spiritual Snacks! Gatekeeping Your Spiritual Growth Mar 05, 2021

Show notes

The Cultivate Podcast is going weekly! We’re kicking off this month's conversation by learning what it means to be a gatekeeper, both cultivating and protecting our spiritual growth. If we want to grow in our relationship with God it’s vital that we learn the difference between a good thing and a God thing. Tune in as Tammy Brown and Melody Workman are joined by Diane Huntsman, the Cultivate Ministry Lead, for a REAL conversation on discipline, sacrifice and the consequences of compromising our spiritual health and growth.

Episode 021 | Getting REAL about letting go. What do you need to leave in the past? Jan 31, 2021

Show notes

As women, we carry things - sometimes longer than we should, sometimes because we think no one else can. The new year lends itself to fresh starts, resolve and looking forward, but what about letting go? Tammy and Melody are challenging us to get REAL and ask ourselves what we’re carrying that needs to be laid down as we head into a new year. Maybe it’s a relational offense, personal loss or past hurt. It could be a choice that requires change, a discipline we need to cultivate or a boundary it’s time to set. If you find yourself hanging on, chasing after or living in the past, it’s time to get REAL about letting go SO THAT you can grow wiser and stronger moving ahead.

A December to Remember...or is it? Dec 01, 2020

Show notes

Wondering how to find your holiday cheer in the tangled mess of angry people, politics and a pandemic? Us too! Whether the tension is on the news or in your living room, we’re all weary and searching for peace, stability and rest. This year definitely looks different, but rather than be discouraged, what if we’ve been given an opportunity to infuse the holidays with what is meaningful, memorable and REAL? No matter what you’re tangled up in, Tammy & Melody are challenging you to be wise and kind as you untie the knots and make this a December to remember.
