  • From the NFL to a Life Fully Surrendered to Jesus – with Sterling Harris
    May 22 2025

    Send us a text

    In this powerful episode, we sit down with Sterling Harris—speaker, author, influencer, businessman, husband, father, former NFL player, and unapologetic Jesus freak.

    Sterling shares his incredible journey from giving his life to God at age 11, to falling away and chasing worldly desires, to finally experiencing deep transformation through a restored relationship with Jesus.

    Sterling opens up about the void he felt when he was separated from God, and how no amount of success or pleasure could fill that emptiness.

    Through God’s grace, he found true freedom from sin and now runs a thriving multi-million-dollar business where Christ comes first in all he does.

    We dive into:

    How we are vessels for Jesus in everything we do.

    The key role communication plays in healthy relationships.

    How Sterling and his wife are actively growing the Kingdom of God together.

    The power of renewing our minds and becoming eternally aware of our thoughts and actions.

    Surrendering fear, doubt, and disbelief to walk in faith.

    Whether you're feeling stuck, hungry for a deeper walk with Jesus, or just love hearing real-life stories of redemption, this episode will challenge and inspire you.

  • Breaking Through the Lies: From Insurance to Intimacy with God — A Conversation with Violet Coots
    May 20 2025

    Send us a text

    In this powerful episode, I sit down with Violet Coots, a certified Christian coach, author, speaker, and founder of Breaking Through the Lies LLC.

    After spending 40 years in the insurance industry, Violet answered God’s persistent call on her life and stepped into full-time ministry. We talk about her journey from hesitation to obedience, her passion for teaching and coaching, and how she helps others replace the lies of the enemy with the truth of God's Word.

    Violet shares insights from her 31-day devotional, Cultivating an Intimate Relationship with God, and reflects on her recent experience speaking at her first women’s conference.

    We also dive deep into topics like shame, spiritual bondage, daily time with God, and the transformative power of journaling. Whether you're struggling with your calling or battling lies that say you're not enough, this conversation is filled with encouragement, truth, and hope.
