Airport Animals, TikTok Plants and a Deep Dive into Holy Week

We're back! After a choppy start to the year, Pastors Jason and Tiffany Shirley are firing up Doing Life Together with fresh momentum—no long summer breaks, just real talk, laughs, and going deeper into life and faith.

In this episode, the crew catches up on spring training baseball (even the boring ones), opening day excitement for the Cardinals, and the hilarious chaos of airport drama—including a cheeky brushtail possum that snuck into a Hobart Airport gift shop in Tasmania and perfectly blended in with the stuffed kangaroos and dingoes. (Yes, we discuss the "dingo ate your baby" tangent too.) '

They open up about getting back on track with the Total Health Challenge (with a big refresh coming for summer momentum), battling headspace struggles, the power of counseling, workouts, and staying consistent so nothing holds you back from what God has for you and your family. Plus, plenty of animal stories, pigeon wars on the patio, invasive garden experiments, and that classic fist-bump struggle.

Then Jason takes us into Resurrection Week with raw passion and tears—unpacking the seven statements Jesus made from the cross, the powerful symbolism of redemption (from the curses in the Garden of Eden to the crown of thorns, Gethsemane sweat, Barabbas, the thief on the cross, and "Tetelestai—it is finished"), and why the resurrection means second chances, victory, and living water for all of us. This one's transparent, funny, hopeful, and deeply encouraging. Whether you're tuning in for the laughs, the animal chaos, or the life-changing truth of Easter, we're doing life together—one honest conversation at a time.
