Coffee with Andi

Friends, Nicole Smithee is a good friend and I love being on the journey with her here in NYC. She's a part of our team here at Liberty Church, and is a powerful, faithful woman, wife, teacher, sister, and friend who lifts up and champions others. This podcast is laden with wisdom, life, and insight from dating, to working out, to hustling, to identity, to Iridescent Women. Go ahead and grab your coffee, and settle in for this great conversation with Nicole Smithee.

"Before we engage in a conversation with the world and even with each other, I think we have to keep in mind that religious systems alone don't heal anybody. It's an encounter with Jesus that does."

Friends, Maria Durso means the world to me and her story is a game changer. This is her first ever podcast (she admittedly didn't know what one was, and that's why we love her), and honestly, wherever this woman goes, she brings the tangible presence of God. Her story is one of abandonment, abuse, and addiction to miraculous salvation, deliverance, transformation, redemption and so much more. In this episode, she tells her story and imparts wisdom that a generation needs to hear.

"This holy God said my name. It wasn't audible, it was internal. It was like mercury in a thermometer and it fills me all the way up. And this voice inwardly said, "Give Me your life before it's too late." - Maria Durso

In this episode, Andi welcomes her friend and author, Tiffany Bluhm, to talk about following and pursuing the dreams given to us by God.

"I encourage you to get alone with the Dream-giver. Get alone with the One who gets that dream, the One who can heal what's been broken, and lost, and destroyed." - Tiffany Bluhm

In this episode, Andi welcomes her friend and special guest, Irene Rollins, to talk about how to find freedom from addiction and start walking the road to recovery.

"You think alcoholism is that guy under the bridge with a brown paper bag? No alcoholism can affect anyone and everyone. That's when the scripture 'we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony' came alive. The more I heard stories, the more I realized that I'm going to be okay." - Irene Rollins

Singleness in the city, Sexuality as a woman, SEX before marriage (or not and why). These are important issues not being talked about in churches but we will talk about them today with my friend and special guest, Kat Harris.

"Many times as women, we put all this pressure on guys to validate us, no wonder Christian guys don't want to date us. 'Fix me, save me, lead me spiritually.' When actually all of these longings can only be met in Jesus." – Kat Harris

Internal battles shouldn't be fought alone. Andi invites her close friend and photographer, Meshali Mitchell, to chat about internal struggles and how the body of Christ can help with healing and transformation in community.

"It's so important to reach out to the body of Christ when going through internal battles. You'll be surprised at how many are willing to say 'what can I do?' and how God will supply that." – Meshali Mitchell

Are you overwhelmed by compassion fatigue? How can we truly be moved by compassion? Andi invites her close friend, Ashley Abercrombie, to speak truth into truly loving our neighbor.

"The ground is level at the foot of the cross. When we all stand side by side looking at Jesus, there is no hierarchy. There's no 1%, race or gender or culture that's superior – none. It's all flat because we all stand made in the image of God." – Ashley Abercrombie

Are we truly living towards eternity? In this episode, Andi invites her friend and bestselling author, Mo Isom, to discuss preparing the bride and walking in purity.

"All of the branches of brokenness are symptomatic responses to core heart issues. We shake our frustrated fists at the failing morality of the world, and yet we're trying to put band-aids on bullet holes because we miss addressing the aching, bleeding needs of people's hearts." – Mo Isom
