December 19, 2023 The Love of Jesus at Christmas // A Conversation with Heather Cofer
For this final installment of our Advent series, I have the joy of introducing you to Heather Cofer. Heather’s unique perspective as a former missionary kid is so encouraging as we consider how to celebrate Christmas and embrace the true reason for this season.

Sometimes, in our world of abundance, we paradoxically feel lacking. But it's in those moments that we can remember: Jesus fills the void. In a world caught up with twinkling lights, so many parties and festivities, Heather invites us to slow down and savor the wonder of Jesus’ love.

December 12, 2023 The Joy of Jesus at Christmas // A Conversation with Ashley Holston

This week, Ashley Holston and I talked about the joy of Jesus. She shares how sometimes, she gets so wrapped up in seeking tools and resources for her faith that she loses sight of the core—Jesus Himself. Even when she couldn't see it during hard times, God was quietly nurturing her faith, growing a supernatural joy within her heart. Her joy wasn't rooted in temporal things, but in the eternal hope of Jesus Christ.

If you’re struggling with all the extra activities, pressures, gifts, and parties thrown at you in this season, this conversation will encourage you to rest in Jesus alone and be content with Him.

Today I have the privilege of introducing you to my dear friend Brooke Lovingood. Even though Brooke is young (less than 30 years on this earth, y’all!) she has endured great suffering. At just 23 years old, she walked through thyroid cancer during her dating and engagement to her now husband. She honestly shares with us about her mental and emotional state during this time and how God, through His Word, helped her to move from a place of living in sheer panic all the time to experiencing peace and joy.

September 12, 2023 Freedom through Disconnection from Social Media // An Interview with Ashlee Gadd
As someone who's often found herself entangled in the web of social media, my conversation with Ashlee Gadd deeply encouraged my heart. Ashlee is a writer who has spent the last few years gradually untangling herself from social media. We talk about her bold decision to delete Instagram for more extended periods of time, and her journey from a metrics-based approach to focusing on her mission. It is an enlightening conversation about the effects of social media on our lives and how the influence of the Holy Spirit offers a path to freedom and fruitfulness.
