Happy holidays! Giving and receiving gifts around the holidays should bring us joy and build anticipation. And yet, we often become stressed or overwhelmed when it comes to giving and receiving gifts. In this episode, Shelby and Krystal discuss how we can have a gospel perspective even in something like exchanging gifts. When we consider our responses to others in both giving and receiving gifts, we have an opportunity to display the generosity of God and His grace toward others. We hope this episode helps us all to reframe our thinking around how we exchange gifts this Christmas.

What are the two topics you aren’t supposed to discuss at family gatherings? Most of us would immediately guess religion and politics, and some of us may intentionally stay away from these topics in public. But what if we could step into the political sphere in a way that honors God? In this episode, Dr. Patrick Schreiner makes a compelling case for why we should consider engaging in politics as believers. Shelby and Krystal chat with Dr. Schreiner about how the gospel changes the way we view politics and offers practical tips on engaging in politics in a way that honors Christ as King.

Many of us struggle to build deep friendships as adults. We might feel too busy, too nervous to be the first to say hello, or too anxious about being rejected or hurt to invest in others.

We know the stories of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. We read the words of Moses and Paul. We seek to emulate women like Esther, Ruth, and Mary. But what about the lesser-known women of the Bible? How do their stories fit in the grand narrative of the Bible? And additionally, how should we see ourselves in light of these stories? On this podcast, Shelby and Krystal are joined by Nana Dolce, author of “The Seed of the Woman: 30 Narratives that Point to Jesus.” They discuss the biblical narratives of women like Hagar, Zipporah, and the widow of Zarephath to help us to see the gospel in all of Scripture. As Nana shares, you will hear her passion for the Scriptures as well as for teaching others. Her enthusiasm for God’s Word is contagious and we pray that this episode deepens your joy in the Lord.

We all experience suffering in this life. Our world is fractured with sin and we encounter its effects regularly. Yet in the midst of suffering, we can find hope in the gospel. We can rejoice that we do not face the pain of this world alone and one day, the Lord will return and make all things new with no more grief and no more pain. In this episode, Shelby and Kyrstal talk with Colleen Chao, author of “In the Hands of a Fiercely Tender God: 31 Days of Hope, Honesty, and Encouragement for the Sufferer.” Her story is marked with pain and suffering as she experienced years of chronic pain, parenting a child with health complications, and a later diagnosis of stage four terminal cancer. But in the midst of her pain, Colleen reminds us of the comfort and love of God and teaches us to run to His Word no matter our circumstances.

We hear the word blessing frequently. We hear people refer to health, prosperity, and exciting opportunities as blessings. God certainly is the giver of all good gifts. But, if blessings are only material gifts to us, then we may feel confused when we walk through sickness, lack, and strife. We need a biblical definition of blessing. The Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, ties blessings into the presence of God. To be blessed by God is to be in His presence, not to receive presents from Him. The gospel assures us that all who are saved by grace through faith have the unbreakable promise of God’s presence in their lives. Therefore, we are blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ. And we can experience blessing even when our life’s circumstances are what Instagram would caption as #blessed. Come chat with us about what it really means to be blessed by God and how the gospel is the very best blessing we can receive.

Come chat with Shelby and Jen Oshman and they discuss five empty promises of our culture: beauty and body image, abortion, gender fluidity, sexual encounters, and marriage and motherhood.

She also shares how we can live a God-centered life in a culture that is constantly telling us we should be the center of our own lives.

Most of us carry the belief that if we could be in control of the people and circumstances around us then life would be better. This belief leads to us exerting massive amounts of energy into controlling everyone and everything. But, somehow our attempts to control our life usually end up hurting and not helping. Can you relate? Today we chat with author, speaker, and church planter Sharon Hodde Miller about her new book The Cost of Control: Why We Crave It, the Anxiety It Gives Us, and the Real Power God Promises. Sharon shares biblical truth to help us realize we are not in control and that’s a good thing! She also shares about the tools God gives us to help us cope and find peace in our out of control world.

Sometimes caring for others can become a crisis in our lives. We can become so consumed with pleasing the people around us that our main function in life becomes to meet the needs and expectations of others. And while this initially seems like a selfless way to live, it is actually often a self-centered way to live. We crave the approval and acceptance of others so much that we will sacrifice anything and everything to get it. People pleasing can easily become an idol. So, how do we recognize when serving others has become our god? And how can we recenter our lives on God instead of the opinions of others? Come chat with us as we discuss how Scripture and ultimately the gospel helps us overcome fear of man and people pleasing.

Many women feel constant pressure to be perfect in all areas of their lives. And because of this pressure, we push ourselves to our limits trying to be (or appear) perfect. But, perfectionism is oftentimes rooted in love of self. It is the outworking of the wrongful belief that we can earn our way into God’s good graces. If we want to have a thriving relationship with God, we need to deal with our perfectionism so that He alone is the standard of perfection in our lives. Come chat with us about the roots of perfectionism, how we can identify it in our lives, when we should repent of the idol of perfectionism, and how the grace of Jesus covers all our imperfections and failures.

Many of us feel the pressure to do it all. We want to be the best Christian, mother, wife, friend, coworker, and church member possible. And we want to serve the Lord well with our time. But, in our pursuit of doing all of these things well, we often overlook the fact that we have God-given limits. Our season of life, our capacity, and time itself limit what we can and can’t do. Today we’re chatting about how to live within our limits for the glory of the Lord and how in that, we find relief from the pressure to do it all.

Life is unpredictable. We do not and cannot know the future. And the unknowns that await us can easily lead to overwhelming fear. “What if?” Circles constantly in our hearts and minds. How can we move fast these fears and overcome our anxieties about the future? We can look to the truth of God’s Word! The Bible never promises us that difficult things won’t happen in the future, but it does promise us that God will be with us no matter what happens. And it is in His presence that our worries are put to rest and our hope is restored. In this episode we talk about the root of our fears, the reality of the unknowns of the future, and how we can look forward to the future with hope and not fear because of God’s faithfulness to us.
