Created For The Season: The Coaches’ Wives Ministry Podcast

Dear Friend,

In this episode we are covering the first half of John, and we have the joy of hearing from Cindy Wild. Many of you know her as a mentor and friend, and I call her the original Covergirl, because she has gone cover to cover more than anyone I know, and she talks about abiding in God’s Word in probably every conversation she has! She is always challenging and encouraging everyone she meets to get into God’s Word for themselves!

But what I love about Cindy is that she really lives out what she preaches. She was a coach’s wife for over 42 years- head football and baseball, has raised 5 kids and now has 15 grandkids, but her husband Danny passed away in 2021 after years of serious health issues. I met her a few years before he passed when she reached out to me through email, because the Lord was calling her to find a way to serve other coaches’ wives and she found me online. Since that connection, it has been a journey of growing together, watching her cling to God’s word through tragedy and suffering and in times of celebration, and so it is truly special to have her on with me today to talk about one of her favorite books of the Bible!

Love to you all,

💕Candace

Dear Friend,

In this episode, we have the privilege of hearing from Dr. Rebecca Thompson as we cover the second half of Luke, chapters 13-24. Rebecca’s husband, Scott, was a division I basketball coach for over 20 years before a battle with cancer. After Scott recovered from cancer, he went on to work for universities as a director of development for cancer centers and athletics until moving into a position as a financial planner. Scott and Rebecca have two grown children and 3 grandkids,  currently reside in Arizona, and she is passionate about ministry work with women in recovery, the homeless, foster care and the arts.

Rebecca is also a nationally recognized public artist and researcher in biophilic arts, design, and health initiatives. Her inspirational work can be viewed on university campuses, public sites, and private collections across the nation. https://rebeccalthompsonart.com/

I invited her to join me today, first and foremost because of her love for and commitment to God’s Word. And secondly, because she is a doctor much like Luke- trained and educated and accomplished, yet having absolute certainty that no earthly knowledge can compete or compare with the infallible word of God. Today we are going to share just a few things found in the book of Luke about the infallible love of God!

Love to you all,

Dear Friend,

We are going to do something a little different this week as we talk about the first half of Luke. Since it is the 3rd gospel account so far, it might feel like you are just reading the same stories again and again, so I am going to share a few ways that the book of Luke is unique. But I will also be sharing the ONE WORD from ONE VERSE that has impacted me the most to encourage you on your journey. As our goal has been to cover EVERY word, I wanted to highlight this one impactful word today!

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.” -Luke 4:18-19

Dear Friend,

In this episode we are covering the second half of Mark, chapters 9-16. Farrah Sinclair is here again and we are wrapping up this action packed book of the Bible! Remember, we are simply sharing our observations about Mark, but the Lord wants to teach you things as well, so we hope you are reading along on your own!

Whatever your struggles or challenges might be, I am praying for the Lord to meet you where you are- to reveal to you WHO He is, WHO you are in Him and how to live like Him in this broken world. He gave His life to ransom us, and has given us His Word so we can grow in that relationship with Him. Praying for you on your journey!

"For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many"- Mark 10:45

Dear Friend,

In our episode today we are covering the second half of Matthew, chapters 16-28. There is so much in these chapters, and be encouraged to keep reading every word for yourself! Darlene Johnson is here again and she and I will be taking a look at ONE very foundational QUESTION of Jesus and sharing some of our personal applications from our time in Matthew…we know that the Lord is teaching you things as well, so keep moving forward and know that you and your family are being prayed for!

But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”

Matthew 16:15-16

Dear Friend,

As we start this project through the New Testament, we have the joy of hearing from Darlene Johnson, who has been part of Coaches’ Wives Ministry from the beginning. Her husband Craig recently retired from 40 years of coaching football at both the college and pro levels, and together they now have a business called “NJCO, LLC.” which serves as a sports and ministry business. Darlene is also on the board of trustees for FCA, a former teaching leader for Bible Study Fellowship, mother of 2 adult daughters and above all a woman who loves the Lord and loves His Word. It is such a blessing to have this conversation with her today.

In this episode, Darlene and I will just be sharing what has impacted us in chapters 1-15 of Matthew, what we have learned about the names, image and likeness of Jesus and how it applies to our lives. As we share, I pray that you will be encouraged in your own reading. The Lord wants to show you things as you read on your own, but please remember that you are not alone! We are doing this together!

“...the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord endures forever.”And this is the word that was preached to you.”-1 Peter 1:24-25

Dear Friend,

Welcome to Season Four and to our new series called The Cover-to-Cover Girl Project! For the first time on this podcast and in our ministry, we are reading through the Bible cover-to-cover, covering every word that God has given us in His Word, starting with the New Testament first, then going back to the Old Testament. AND we are doing it together with 3 very special opportunities. Join us today to hear all about why we are doing this project, what these opportunities are and how you can get involved!

Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”- Matthew 4:4

Dear Friend,

Today we are wrapping up Season 3 and getting ready for some exciting things throughout the rest of 2025 and into 2026! If you missed any of these past episodes, I encourage you to go back and listen, as we have been lifting up the name of Jesus throughout the past few months. His name, His image and His likeness have been our focus and will continue to be our focus, so in today’s episode I will be sharing the game plan for how we will be doing this together in the months to come!

“Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” Psalm 91:14-16 (ESV)

Prayers for you and your families this summer!

Love to you all,

💕Candace

Hi Friends!

I have loved hearing from our special guests these past few weeks- from Farrah Sinclair, with her passion to serve her community through her DIY studio, and Edrina, our guest today, who is using her creative skills to serve others in a unique way. It is amazing that we have all been given gifts and abilities to use for the Lord! If you are not yet sure what they are or how to use them, my prayer is that you will get some ideas as you listen in today. I know you will be encouraged by this conversation!

"Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms."

-1 Peter 4:10

Love to you all,

💕Candace
