Amplify: Conversations about life + faith

Today I've got Sarah Law with me. You've actually heard from Sarah in a previous show, and she's such a delight that I wanted to talk with her again. Sarah's got three kids under 10 and has a really gracious perspective on how to balance time and traditions during this season, and we end with a conversation on New Year's resolutions that I found really convicting. Let's dive in.

Listen to Sarah's podcast "Talking tornadoes with Sarah Law".

Today is an extra fun episode for a few reasons. First, it's the week before Christmas, which just feels surreal, and second, we have two former guests of the show here to share their Christmas hot takes. We've got my husband, Sam, and our friend Aaron Jaillet, who have both shared about grief in different ways with us on the podcast, so we thought it would be a nice change to hear their thoughts on a lighter topic.

This week I have my coworker, Melanie McKinney, with me. She is one of the most Christmas cheer-y individuals that I know. To close out the year and as we get closer to Christmas, I thought it would be good to have some fun conversations about people and their Christmas memories and favorite things, just something a little lighter than what we typically do. Let's dive in.

Hey friends! Maggie is feeling under the weather, so we don't have a new episode for you this week, but we have included one of our favorite previous episodes featuring Maggie's husband, Sam. Hope you all enjoy it and Maggie will be back next week!

Today I've got a special guest with me — my husband, Sam. Y'all have heard me mention him nearly every episode, so I thought it just made sense to finally have him as a guest on the show. Sam is a delightful human who experienced a deep loss very early in life. And that loss has impacted how he views God and relationships in really foundational ways, which is something that consistently surprises him. Let's dive in.

This is the third in a series on service. If you're just jumping in, I'd encourage you to hop back to the first episode of the series and start from there.

Today I've got Clara Huff with me. Clara is a person that was recommended to me by a mutual friend, and I'm so thankful I got to talk with her. She is someone whose whole life has been in service to the Lord, and I loved hearing how she spoke with such confidence about what God has called her to. Let's dive in.

This is the second in a series on service. There's a lot to serving our Lord and those around us, and I think there's also a lot of misconceptions surrounding it. And because it's such a big part of our Christian walk, I wanted to dig into it a little more.

Today I've got Kelly Redding with me. Kelly is someone who loves to dig into theological texts, which is so interesting to me because that is for sure not my natural leaning. And because of her passion for the Word, I wanted to bring her on today to talk through the theology of service and help us see where we might have fundamental misunderstandings about it. Let's dive in.

First up, I've got the person who taught me how to serve — my dad, Dave Walsh. My dad is the person who has really demonstrated to me what service looks like, and as a pastor he's got an extra dose of perspective and experience on the topic. You're going to hear a lot of jokes in this episode, so just go ahead and prepare yourself for a glimpse into my childhood.

Dave is the pastor of Ariton Baptist Church in south Alabama. He also compiles the Pastor Connections email for TAB Media Group, which is a monthly newsletter for pastors by pastors.

This week I've got Trennis and Pam Henderson with me. I got to meet Trennis and Pam through our mutual work with TAB Media Group, and they have a really incredible perspective on life that I've gotten to see more in the past few months. This pair travels around the Southeast as regional correspondents for The Baptist Paper, which is a completely new national publication, and seeing them navigate these roles and unique circumstances has been just really inspiring. Let's dive in.
