May 26, 2026 EP 010: Will it Work For My Good? ft Admeishaa
In this week’s episode of After the Altar, I am joined by Admeishaa who inspires with her story of obedience to God and helping us to reframe life situations.

Personally, I needed every word of this week’s episode. Admeishaa’s journey and total reliance on God is truly an inspiration. So many times we go through life not understanding what obedience does in our walk with God, but this conversation goes to show that it increases our faith

If you’ve been wondering if it will work for your good, take a listen.

April 14, 2026 EP 09: Look For More of God ft Shaneka
In this week’s episode of After the Altar, I am joined by Shaneka who has overcome many things by using faith as her anchor.

It’s one thing to hear that someone is going through or hear the news that shook them, but how does one not just live through it, but pursue God in it. Being vulnerable with God is not easy but He wants us to put our walls down and open up to Him as wee encounter things in life.

If you’ve been feeling confused on how to handle what you are going through or what is missing in your process with God, take a listen.

In this week’s episode of After the Altar, I am joined by Roderick who talks about his altar call and God healing him after grief.

Being a man and letting God take control and heal and shape you take a special kind of surrender. This conversation explores healing of the heart, from church hurt, and accepting the new things God has called us to.

If you’ve been feeling like it’s time for a true surrender and like there must me more outside of the four walls for you to do, this one is for you.

March 17, 2026 EP 06: God Just Wants A Yes ft Kelsey M.
In this week’s episode of After the Altar, I am joined by Kelsey who talks about her altar of becoming who God is calling for her to be this season.

Sometimes we think God wants us to the do the big things first when He really just wants the one yes. I love how transparent Kelsey is about how she asked God to reaffirm a decision she was hesitant to make and He helped her because He’s God

If you are in a season where you feel God tugging on you to try again or come out from hiding, this one is for you!

March 10, 2026 EP 05: God Knows How He Made You ft Chelsea
In this week’s episode of After the Altar, I am joined by Chelsea who talks about her experience of becoming all that God said she is. Not connected to what she does, or the people around her, but who He created her to be.

We spend too much of our time trying to adjust our life to what people say or what we see and it’s keeping us from being real with God. Once we realize that God made us who we are and He walks with us through every part, the more we can surrender to Him

February 24, 2026 EP 03: Obedience and Maturity ft Kelsey Jones
In this week’s episode of After the Altar, I am joined by Kelsey Jones who talks about her walk of surrendering to the call on her life.

She shared that she has had multiple altar calls, each one pulling her into what God had for her. Saying yes to God doesn’t come easy. It’s not something we automatically want to do or even see that God wants us to do it, but it is necessary to obey Him in this walk.
