Encouraged & Equipped

Many of us like a plan – and that is a good thing. But Yvette Livesay-Wright presents us something even better – relying daily on a God who has a plan we do not yet see. Through the ups and downs of starting a business, she invites us into her journey of praying, watching, and thanking God for provision. Sure, it might be scary at times, but according to Yvette, it is also fun!

We could listen to Krupa Patel all day long. Since we first heard her story, moments of it have played in our minds – from God’s care for her before she knew Him, to the Gospel changing her heart, to her passion for speaking up about Jesus. You are not going to want to miss this episode. And our guess is that you will be challenged and encouraged by it just like us.

Relationships can be one of the most significant gifts – and challenges – in our lives. The great thing is they can push us to Jesus. It’s in Him we see and experience the fullness of grace. Elise Jordan points us to the grace, hope, and freedom we experience in that relationship with Jesus.

We have all seen delight and wonder in the eyes of a child – and we have all even been that child. Yet somehow things change as we grow up – but should they? Perhaps there’s value in holding onto some childlike wonder. Brittany Williams and Mallory Jones inspire and invite us into delight every day – even as adults.

In this episode, Misty Denman describes Helen Grimes as a woman with gritty faith (a faith that endures) – and we agree. Helen tells us about her spiritual journey – how God softened her hardened heart and gave her strength to endure. And she gives us a glimpse of where she finds her hope.

Yes, it is possible to laugh a lot while talking about contentment. Because that’s what Koree Mangum and Carol Steer do in this episode. While we love laughing with them, we also value their wise honest insights about contentment. We particularly appreciate how they refuse to pretend to be content. Instead they shared how they fight for – and enjoy – real contentment.

If you want someone to smile and laugh with you, call Wendi Lyon. You cannot help but catch some of her infectious joy. You may be surprised by her story, though.  Her positivity is not a result of having lived an easy life, but a result of being gripped by a God who has been and is her treasured friend.

Christina Sandra gives us a glimpse inside her wrestling with God – and seeing Him answer. We invite you to be challenged and encouraged by her story and see the fruit He produced in her life. We know her story of infertility does not reflect all stories of infertility. Each journey is unique. We hope though, regardless of what your life looks like, her story will motivate you to have honest conversations with our compassionate God.

We are not sure if we are allowed to go back to summer camp but we really wish we could. We would definitely want Caroline Reyes to be our camp counselor. First we would have a lot of fun. But we also want her God and His camp lessons that marked not just her summer but her entire life. Enjoy our conversation with Caroline!
