  • When The World Hates You, But It Hated Jesus First

    In this episode of God in the Grocery Aisle, Chelsea opens up about obeying God to have a direct, gospel-centered conversation with a lifelong friend who doesn’t share her faith. She describes the Holy Spirit’s nearness, the cost of honesty, and the peace that came from saying what needed to be said—even without a tidy ending. Together, they reflect on courage as simply saying yes to God and the freedom that often follows obedience. Along the way, God confirms His presence through timely sermons, faithful prayer partners, and Scripture—“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first” (John 15:18, NIV)—reminding us to hold truth and love together.

  • Hanging on By a Thread, But Stitched Up by Grace: How God Holds Us (and Our Little Ones) Together

    The first week at a new school did not go seamlessly for Brianne’s girls—think uniforms literally stitched together by Grandpa and a roster mistake that put tiny first-grader Lilly in kindergarten. As Brianne advocates for her daughter and wrestles with old wounds about belonging, God keeps inviting her to use her voice and to trust Him with Lilly’s heart—and her own. There’s no neat bow yet: Lilly ended up in first grade with a wonderful teacher and new friends, while Abbie surprised everyone by running into school with joy. The takeaway: God often uses messy starts to reveal cracks He wants to heal in us, our marriages, and our parenting, reminding us we’re never an afterthought. “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb” (Psalm 139:13, NIV).

  • When Trailers Break Down but God Shows Up: Lessons from Family Camping

    What do flat tires, red mud, and tornado warnings have to do with faith? In episode 20, we sit down with our mom and dad around the campfire in Show Low, Arizona, to swap decades of family camping stories—complete with breakdowns, blowouts, and even a terrifying highway accident.

    Through it all, one theme stands out: God has been with us in every mile, every storm, and every “this trip is ruined” moment. From providing our very first camper when money was tight, to protecting us in near-disasters, to answering small prayers in everyday inconveniences, His faithfulness shows up again and again.

    Whether you’re in a season of smooth sailing or stuck on the side of the road (literally or figuratively), this conversation is a reminder that God cares about the things that matter to us—and He uses even our detours to build faith for generations.

    Join us for laughter, near-tears, and lots of gratitude as we look back on the messy, beautiful legacy of camping with God at the center.

  • How to Find God in Dreams & Details: Strange Dreams, Dog Shoes, & a Plan of Redemption

    Episode 18 - How to Find God in Dreams & Details: Strange Dreams, Dog Shoes, & a Plan of Redemption

    Have you ever had a dream so real… and then it actually happened? In this episode, we unpack a string of eerily specific dreams and “coincidences” that felt anything but random. From lost IDs to snakes in the street to unexpected conversations with our kids, it’s been a season of noticing God in the details.

    What if all those little moments—those goosebumps, those delays, those echoes—are actually divine fingerprints? What if God is saying, I’m right here. Still. Always.

    We talk about:
     – How God sometimes speaks through dreams
     – The “but God” moments in our fear and anxiety
     – Why even small coincidences might be spiritual nudges
     – How our systematic, ordered universe points to a Creator
     – The supernatural love of a very personal, very present God

    If you’ve been wondering whether that moment was just a coincidence or something more… this one’s for you.

    📖 Scripture referenced: Jeremiah 29:13, Esther 4:14, the story of Jesus calming the storm (Mark 4:35–41)

  • God Never Asked for That: Empty Sacrifice, Gentle Correction, and Learning to Obey with Joy
    Episode 17 - God Never Asked for That: Empty Sacrifice, Gentle Correction, and Learning to Obey with JoyAfter a couple months away from the mic, we’re back—and this conversation is exactly what brought us here.We took a pause because something wasn’t sitting right. The joy we once felt doing this podcast started to fade, replaced by pressure, performance, and questions about whether we were doing what God actually asked of us… or just what we thought we were supposed to do.This episode is us unpacking all of that. It’s a real-time conversation about obedience, burnout, and the quiet ways God gently redirects our hearts when we start to drift from His purpose. We talk about the temptation to turn faith into effort, the false belief that it only “counts” if it’s hard, and what it looks like to return—not just to the podcast, but to joy-filled, surrendered obedience.If you’ve ever wondered, “Did God even ask me to do this?”—you are not alone. And maybe, like us, you’re being invited to do it differently this time.1 Samuel 15:22 — “To obey is better than sacrifice…”Ephesians 2:8-9 — “It is by grace you have been saved, through faith…”Timestamps:00:00 – Why We Took a Break (And Why We're Back)04:25 – When Obedience Becomes Performance10:15 – The Family Command Center & the Grace to Invest16:40 – Faith Without the Frenzy: Returning to Joy24:50 – Obedience, Sacrifice & Misaligned Hustle33:10 – What This Podcast Is (and Isn’t) Going Forward💬 Join the ConversationWhat’s your God in the Grocery Aisle Moment?
