Clean Heart Club crew, you are in for such a tender, faith-filled treat today. 🥹✨

I’m welcoming my longtime friend Sherry Weedman to the podcast—pastor, mama of seven (one in heaven), Grammy to 21 (and a great-grandma!), and spiritual mama at HopeUC Nashville, a beautiful “barn church” that’s bursting at the seams with worship, community, and real-deal Jesus people.

We talk about what it means to be a “family of families” in the church, how to create small group spaces where people are truly seen and known, and why the world is hungry for authentic, not polished. Sherry shares deeply vulnerable stories of losing her son and grandson, how God met her in devastating grief, and how He truly makes beauty from ashes—or as she says, “brutiful things: both brutal and beautiful.”

If you’ve ever been hurt by church, avoided small groups, struggled with shame, or wondered if God could ever redeem the hardest parts of your story…this conversation will feel like a warm hug and a holy invitation. 🤍
