How to Pray.
bonusYou've probably said these words before… "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name." Maybe you learned it as a kid, heard it in church, or have recited it without fully understanding what it means. But in Matthew 6:5–13, Jesus isn't just giving us a prayer to repeat… He's giving us a blueprint for how to pray. In this episode, Madi walks through the Lord's Prayer line by line, breaking down what each part means and how it actually shapes the way we talk to God in our everyday lives. Some of us don't know what to say when we pray. Others feel like they're doing it "wrong." But what if Jesus already showed us exactly how to do it? We're talking about: -What it really means to call God "Our Father" -What it looks like to pray for His will, not just our own -How to depend on Him daily AND SO MUCH MORE My prayer is that you would stop overthinking prayer, start showing up authentically, and experience just how personal your relationship with God can be.

Luke 23:32-43: Which Thief Are You?
bonusIt's Holy Week! You've probably seen this image before… three crosses on a hill. Maybe on a bumper sticker, a piece of jewelry, a church sign, or a social media post; but in Luke 23:39-43, we're invited to look closer. In this episode, Madi and Grant unpack the powerful reality behind those three crosses, specifically the two thieves beside Jesus. In their final moments, both men face the same Savior… yet they respond in completely different ways. One hardens his heart. The other humbly turns to Jesus. And the question we're left with is: which one are we? We're talking about: -The contrast between a hardened heart and a surrendered one -What it looks like to recognize our need for a Savior -The power of salvation -And how even in his final breath, one thief found grace This episode is an invitation to reflect, to soften, and to remember that it's never too late to turn to Him. My prayer is that you would see yourself honestly, respond to Jesus fully, and rest in the truth that salvation is available to YOU. New episodes every Thursday at 7am EST 🤍

The Beatitudes: The Character of Kingdom Citizens
bonusSURPRISE 🕊️ Stay True in the Word is here… and it's just the beginning. We are officially adding a second episode every week (!!) and this one is a little different. While Mondays are filled with powerful conversations with amazing guests, these Thursday episodes are your space to slow down, open the Word, and sit with Jesus. These episodes are packed with Scripture, reflection, prayer, and a reset for your heart. And today… we're starting at the foundation. In this very first episode, Madi dives into Matthew 5:3-10, the Beatitudes, and uncovers what it really means to live in the "upside-down Kingdom." A Kingdom where the blessed don't look like the world says they should. A Kingdom that starts not with what we do, but who we are. We're talking about: -What it means to be poor in spirit and fully dependent on God -A holy grief over sin that leads to transformation -Strength under control through meekness -A deep hunger for what actually satisfies -Living with mercy, purity, and peace in a culture that resists it -And what it looks like to stay faithful—even when it costs you These aren't just verses to read… they are the character of Kingdom citizens. This episode is an invitation to come back to what's true. To realign your heart. To be filled again. My prayer is that this becomes your weekly space to be grounded, encouraged, and drawn closer to God. New episodes every Thursday at 7am EST 🤍

As always… be sure to stay you and stay true! Questions/topics discussed and answered: • What does real, Hebrews 11 kind of faith actually look like in everyday life? • Are you playing it safe, and could that be holding you back from God's best? • What "weights" or hidden sins might be quietly slowing you down? • Are you living for the world… or with eternity in mind? • What would it look like to step into boldness and fully use what God's given you?
