The headlines told one part of the story. But what happens when the headlines fade, the cameras are gone, and a family is left to pick up the pieces.

Carl Lentz went from leading Hillsong NYC and being one of the most recognizable pastors in the world to facing the public fallout of personal failures that deeply impacted his family.

But God. 

Carl and Laura join me on the couch for an incredibly honest conversation about infidelity, broken trust, forgiveness, and the difficult work of healing as they prepare for the release of their book “Overcoming Infidelity.”

I had the incredible privilege of sitting down with CeCe Winans AND her daughter, Ashley, for a conversation about motherhood, fame, faith, legacy and what it looks like when God continues to surprise you with what's ahead.

CeCe is reaching new heights in her career in her 60s—bigger than she ever imagined—and we talk about how God continues to grow her ministry and use her in ways she couldn't have planned for herself.

We also talk about the other titles that may be even more meaningful: Mom. Grandma. Mentor. And the woman pouring into the next generation.

Recording this conversation at the Museum of Gospel and Christian Music in downtown Nashville, surrounded by the story of CeCe's incredible career, made it even more meaningful.

But my favorite part may be hearing CeCe and Ashley talk about each other. ❤️

If you've ever wondered whether your most meaningful and fruitful years might still be ahead of you, I think this conversation will encourage you.

What happens when the dreams you once shared with your spouse begin coming true... for them, but not for you?

In this deeply honest conversation, Anna Asbury sits down with host, Jennifer Vickery Smith, to share about the parts of her story that aren't easy to talk about. A wife, mother of five, artist, and the wife of Christian artist Cory Asbury, Anna talks candidly about navigating postpartum depression after each of her pregnancies, feeling hidden in motherhood, struggling with her identity, and even experiencing jealousy as she watched her husband's career flourish while her own dreams seemed to fade.

But God wasn't finished writing her story.

Anna shares how an ordinary Crayola paint set became the unexpected beginning of a calling she never saw coming, and how God met her in one of the hardest seasons of her life to reveal gifts she never knew she had.

If you've ever wrestled with comparison, felt unseen, wondered if your dreams still mattered, or needed hope in the middle of motherhood, this conversation will remind you that God is still at work... even in the waiting.

In this episode, we discuss:
• Postpartum depression after five pregnancies
• Marriage and supporting your spouse's calling
• Identity and comparison
• Feeling hidden in motherhood
• Waiting on God's timing
• Discovering unexpected purpose
• How God can redeem seasons that feel forgotten

This week, I am joined by beautiful Lauren Tomlin, wife to best selling christian music artist & worship leader Chris Tomlin, mom to their three girls, and a woman of deep, steady faith.

While so many of us have been impacted by the songs Chris leads around the world, today we’re talking about the life Chris and Lauren have built at home... what it looks like to nurture faith in their children, stay grounded in marriage through the highs and lows and the quiet ways God is shaping her heart in this season of motherhood.

This is a conversation about faith, family, and the legacy we’re building behind the scenes… and I think you’re going to love her perspective.

In this special conversation, the legendary singer-songwriter joins me to talk about her first studio album in 13 years, the joys and challenges of motherhood, and the wisdom she's gained through every season of life.

Amy reflects on the lasting influence of her mother, who once told her, "When you get out on that stage, sing something that matters." It's advice that has shaped her career and continues to guide her today.

This heartfelt conversation is filled with stories, laughter, encouragement, and the kind of perspective that only comes from a life well lived.

Special thanks to the Museum of Christian and Gospel Music in downtown Nashville for helping make this interview possible. The museum celebrates the rich legacy of Christian and gospel music and features artifacts from many beloved artists—including Amy Grant herself.

In this deeply personal episode of Got It From My Momma, my son Conner joins me for an honest conversation about the year following the fatal car accident that forever altered the lives of two families.

Together, we reflect on the grief, heartbreak, questions, and healing that followed—and the faith that carried us through it all.

We discuss:
 • How God met us in our darkest moments
 • The strength and support of family, friends, and community
 • The role Conner's wife played during this difficult season
 • How grief and gratitude can coexist
 • How tragedy has deepened Conner's faith and testimony
 • The opportunity to encourage and mentor others facing loss
 • What we've learned about healing, hope, and God's faithfulness

This conversation was not easy to have, but it is one we felt called to share. Our prayer is that anyone walking through grief, loss, disappointment, or an unexpected life circumstance would find encouragement in the reminder that God is still present, still faithful, and still working even in the hardest seasons.

Thank you for listening and for being part of this community.

If this episode encourages you please share it with someone who may need hope today.
