  • Special Episode: Christine Caine on Resilient Hope and What to Do When Life Knocks the Wind Out of You
    Aug 7 2025

    You don’t have to quit when life gets hard – you can rise with resilient hope. In this episode, host Christine Caine shares the heart and inspiration behind her devotional Resilient Hope. From seasons of betrayal and burnout to breakthrough and endurance, Christine unpacks what it looks like to stand firm when life shakes you. If you're feeling weary, discouraged, or just longing to build deeper spiritual strength, this episode will equip you to anchor your hope in Jesus—and get back up again.

    SHOW NOTES:
    Why We Need Resilient Hope Right Now
    Christine opens up about a season that left her breathless and overwhelmed—and how she clung to God’s promises when everything around her was shaking.

    Hope Is Not a Feeling—It’s a Foundation
    Our circumstances change constantly, but our hope is anchored in Jesus, who never changes.

    You Can’t Climb High Without Building Strength
    Using hiking imagery, Christine explains that spiritual endurance is developed the same way physical endurance is: through intentional resistance and consistency.

    Pain Doesn’t Mean You’re Off Course
    Christine challenges the idea that pain means God isn’t in it—sometimes, pressing through is exactly the sign you’re in the center of your calling.

    Start with the Source

  • Ep 78: Leading with Margin: Why Pace Matters More Than Perfection
    Jul 17 2025

    In this episode, host Christine Caine sits down with preacher and author Jackie Hill Perry, her husband Nick Caine, and listener Q&A to explore what it really looks like to lead with healthy rhythms. They unpack the myth of balance, the trap of hustle, and why spiritual disciplines—not perfect schedules—are what truly sustain us. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or simply stretched too thin, this conversation will bring clarity, conviction, and practical wisdom to help you lead with peace, purpose, and power.

    SHOW NOTES:

    Christine shares why balance isn’t the goal—health is. She reveals how viewing life as interconnected (not compartmentalized) leads to freedom, not burnout.

    Discipline Over Hustle
    Jackie Hill Perry gets honest about pruning fruitful things, not just broken ones. Sometimes surrender means letting go of good things for God things.

    Spiritual Rhythms > Cultural Metrics
    Jackie challenges the constant leaning on podcasts, Google, and quick answers instead of truly inquiring of the Lord.

    Seasons Shift, So Should Your Schedule
    Christine reflects on motherhood, ministry, and how obedience to God means your rhythm will shift with each season—and that’s okay.

    You Need the Holy Spirit More Than a Planner
    Nick Caine adds perspective from leadership, marriage, and ministry, reminding us that no system can replace daily dependence on the Spirit.
