May 15, 202522. What's Your Coffee Shop Name?
Ever felt like the name you carry, out loud or just in your heart, doesn’t match who God says you are?

Let's explore what it means to be seen, named, and fully known by God. A simple coffee shop moment will take us into a deeper conversation about identity, grace, and the beautiful reminder from Acts 10:15: “Do not call anything unclean that God has made clean.”

Through scripture, storytelling, and a different perspective on prayer, we hope you are encouraged to:
Replace self-imposed labels with truth.
Make space for prayer in even the busiest of days.
Walk in the freedom of your God-given identity.
Recognize how your story, no matter how messy, is part of a testimony God is redeeming.
You are welcome here…You are seen… And you are called by a name that brings freedom.

April 17, 202521. A Story of Redemption, Identity & Unshakable Hope
If you’ve ever wondered whether your past disqualifies you from living in freedom or being used by God, this episode is for you.
Join us as we discuss the extraordinary, deeply moving story of the life of Mary Magdalene. We will examine what scripture tells us about her encounter with Jesus and the beautiful transformation that took place from that moment forward. We reflect on the pain, shame, and spiritual battles she must have endured—and how her life was radically changed by the compassion of Jesus.

Together, we’ll explore:
The redemptive power of Jesus to completely restore what was once broken.

Why our identity is not defined by what we’ve done, but by who He says we are.

How Mary went from being tormented and cast aside… to being the first witness of the resurrection...the one entrusted with the greatest news ever told.

What it means to sever ourselves from past shame and step into purpose, even when we feel unworthy.
There’s no depth too dark, no past too heavy, and no pain too consuming that Jesus cannot redeem.

March 20, 202520. NO SHAME on You!
Shame can feel overwhelming, making us believe we are unworthy of love or too broken
to be redeemed. But Jesus sees us in our pain and meets us with endless compassion.
He didn’t come to condemn but to restore, offering forgiveness and grace no matter our
past. The enemy tries to whisper lies—that we are too far gone, that God could never
truly love us. But the truth is, Jesus calls us beloved, redeemed, and made new. In Him,
shame is replaced with freedom, and every lie is silenced by His truth: we are deeply
loved and forever His.
Join us as we examine the crippling grip of shame and the overwhelming freedom
available to each one of us.

February 20, 202519. Breaking the Stronghold of Rejection
Rejection is a lie from the enemy, designed to deceive us into doubting our worth and purpose. But when we understand our true identity in Christ, we realize that we are loved, chosen, and accepted by the Creator of the universe. This truth fills the void in our hearts, replacing the emptiness of rejection with the fullness of God's unconditional love and affirmation. Knowing who we are in Christ silences the lies of the enemy and empowers us to walk in confidence, knowing that we are always valued and never alone.

Anxiety seems to be the most well-known and most commonly shared emotion plaguing society today. I’ve never met anyone who has never experienced it, and I’ve met many who live in a common state of mental & emotional fight or flight.
