Shanna is joined by Michelle Holmgren to talk about the theology of parenting. Scripture tells us that children are a gift from the Lord and that they bear His image. And while parenting is a call to shepherd their hearts, it’s also a tool God uses to shape ours.

We’ll talk about how family discipleship can happen in everyday moments, how to avoid performance-based parenting, and how to rest in the truth that God is the perfect parent that we, and our children, ultimately need.

This conversation is a great reminder that you don’t have to get everything right. Faithful parenting starts with daily dependence on God. 

If you’ve walked through the heartbreak of miscarriage or if you love someone who has, then this conversation is for you. Shanna is joined by Brittany Allen author of Lost Gifts: Miscarriage, Grief, and the God of All Comfort. This book laments the grief of miscarriage, discovers God’s gifts in spite of loss, and remembers our Good Shepherd, who weeps with those who weep. 

This conversation is one of honesty, of hope, and of holding fast to the God who binds up the brokenhearted and never wastes our sorrow.So whether you’re in the thick of grief, walking the long road of healing, or simply wondering how to come alongside a friend who’s hurting - take a deep breath. You’re not alone.

In this episode, Shanna is joined by Kelli Galyean, to talk about the life of David. From overlooked shepherd to mighty king, David’s journey is full of faith, failure, courage, and redemption. But this episode isn’t just about David - it’s about what his life reveals about the heart of God.

The Attribute Song - Our Great God

In this episode, Shanna explores the significance of Jesus’ resurrection and ascension. The resurrection is the cornerstone of our faith - without it, there is no gospel, no hope, and no future. But the story doesn’t stop there. We turn our attention to the often-overlooked ascension of Christ, a vital part of the gospel narrative. From His heavenly throne, Jesus continues His work as our Prophet, Priest, and King. Join Shanna as she unpacks why both the resurrection and ascension matter for every believer today. 

Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest!

We see the character of God all over the story of Ruth even though He is only mentioned just a few times. The story of Ruth and Naomi is one that highlights many of God's characteristics including his compassion and provision. We see the introduction of the Kinsman-Redeemer and how God used the seemingly insignificant events in Ruth's story to connect her to the lineage of David and ultimately, to be mentioned in the lineage of Jesus. Join us in this short episode as we dive into this story and look for God's attributes.

In this episode, Shanna gets to interview her pastor, Matt Chandler. 

For many, Revelation is a bit intimidating. It’s a big book with a lot of weird characters in it. And yet, for the last 2000 years, the book of Revelation has put courage into the spines of Christians. Revelation says that despite what we see and experience, Christ is on his throne and ruling on high, and we are able to live faithfully in the moment of time that God has placed us.  We don’t have to be anxious or afraid of anything in the present or in the future because both have already been won. 

Shanna and Matt discuss the Book of Revelation, the dragon, the four horsemen of the apocalypse, cultural christianity, church hurt, and so much more.

This week, Kristen and Shanna dive into the story of Moses. You have probably often heard the stories of Moses' life, but have you ever stopped to look for what his story teaches you about God? We hope this episode helps you interact with Moses' life in a different way and will become a reminder of God's care for and patience with His people and His sovereignty over all.

This episode, Shanna and Kristen are going to take a 30,000 ft view of the story of Abraham. We will look at God's character as we look at the lives of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar. Don't let the length of this episode fool you -  It is full of deep truth that we pray will encourage your heart and remind you of what is true about God. 

So buckle up as we talk about one of Shanna's favorite stories in the Bible: The Story of Abraham
