    Martha and Kim are excited to welcome Amy Johnson to the podcast table today. Amy has been a guest recently and you can listen to her previous episodes (#200 and 201). As they enjoy lively and fun conversation on the Advent theme of joy, it is their hope that you will be spurred on to lean into the Source of Joy Himself, King Jesus.

    The Father's joy is real and tangible when we gather to talk about him. It is this joy that is gifted to us in Christ through the Holy Spirit.

    Thank you for joining us.

    Please help us spread the word about this podcast and leave us a 5 star rating and a review.

  • Hope in the Prince Of Peace

    Hope in the Prince Of Peace
    Dec 8 2025

    Send us a Text Message and let us know what you think!

    Peace can seem elusive these days. In the headlines, in our relationships, in our grief, or in our Christmas plans, it feels like peace is slipping through our fingers. The profound reality of Advent is that we don't have to, nor can we, manufacture true peace. It comes to us in the person of the Prince of Peace. Our hope does not rest on the world getting its act together or in our circumstances being just right. Our hope rests in the Prince of Peace himself, who came to dwell among us, whose Presence changes everything.

    Here's a link to the book: Jesus Calling For Christmas

    Please share this podcast with a friend. We all need to know this Prince of Peace.

  • Hope Enters The World In The Fullness Of Time

    Hope Enters The World In The Fullness Of Time

    Welcome to A Burst Of Hope as Martha and Kim begin this Advent season with you.

    Advent invites us to a time of preparation and waiting, one that the people of Israel knew about for generations. The remarkable truth is that God chose to enter into time itself, submitting to daily calendars and human waiting.

    Our waiting isn't empty, we expectantly look for Hope to come in the fullness of time, every day.

    Thanks for joining us! We'd love to hear from you.
