  • When you can't show up: grace in a hard season
    Dec 29 2025

    If I’m being honest, this past year didn't look like a highlight reel. It was physically heavy, exhausting, and, to be truthful, there were many days where I simply couldn't show up the way I wanted to for my family. Maybe you’ve been there too? Whether it’s a difficult pregnancy, a health struggle, or just a season where your 'intentionality' has been replaced by 'survival.'

    In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a hard year. We’re talking about the guilt of not being 'present enough' and the small things that helped me navigate and show up in a different way. If you feel like you’re running on empty as we head into the new year, this conversation is for you.

  • Culturally Accepted vs. Truth: the Clash Between Popular Sayings and Biblical Truth
    Mar 14 2025

    In today's world, we hear countless sayings and mantras that promote self-fulfillment, personal happiness, and chasing after what feels good. But what happens when these cultural norms clash with the teachings of scripture? In "Culture vs. Truth ," we dive into the tension between what society often accepts and what the Bible actually says. From the mantra "Do what makes you happy" to the belief that "follow your heart" leads to true fulfillment, we'll explore how these ideas compare to biblical truths like seeking God's kingdom and carrying our cross. Join us as we navigate the words and wisdom that shape our world and measure them against God's Word, offering clarity, encouragement, and perspective in a culture that often gets it wrong.
