I open up about something I’ve been wrestling with deeply—how to forgive someone who didn’t hurt me directly, but hurt someone I love.

It’s one thing to forgive when you’re the one who’s been wounded. But when you’re standing in the gap for someone else's pain, that forgiveness feels even harder—more personal, more protective, more complicated.

We’ll talk about:

☆ Why forgiveness is obedience, even when it’s painful

☆ How I’ve seen God soften my heart

☆ The difference between letting go and excusing the hurt

☆ Prayers to start when forgiveness feels impossible

If you're struggling to forgive—not for yourself, but for someone you love—this is for you. Let's go there. Let’s get honest. Let’s talk about forgiveness when it’s the last thing you want to do, but the very thing God is calling you to do.

📖 “Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, ‘Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?’Jesus answered, ‘I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.’” — Matthew 18:21–22

Let’s talk about what international ministry work looks like. Not the performative stuff. Not the savior complex. But the kind that actually honors God and the people you're called to serve.

In this episode, I sit down with John McCollum, Executive Director of Asia’s Hope, to talk about:
-His raw, personal journey with Jesus
-How Asia’s Hope is flipping the script on traditional ministry
-What it takes to build something lasting, ethical, and Christ-centered

This isn’t your typical feel-good ministry convo. It’s honest, challenging, and necessary. If you care about global ministry, justice, or walking in obedience—this one’s for you.

🎧 Hit play. Then let it change how you think about calling, impact, and faith that actually shows up.

📖 "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world" - James 1:27

Do we truly want to be holy or do we just like the idea of holiness? What does it really mean to be holy? Is it just about behavior—or is it about becoming? In this episode, Cheyenne unpacks the true meaning of holiness, and how following Jesus means being set apart—not just in how we live, but in how we suffer.

Using Luke 23:32–43—the powerful scene at the cross—we explore:

🔹 What it means to be holy as God is holy

🔹 The connection between suffering and sanctification

🔹 How to endure pain with purpose like Jesus did

🔹 What true transformation looks like in the life of a believer

Holiness isn’t perfection—it’s a process. And sometimes, that process is painful. But if we want to reflect Jesus, we have to be willing to walk where He walked—even when it costs us.

📖 “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” — Luke 23:42

🎧 Listen now and let’s step into the sacred call to be holy, even when it hurts.
