#CheerfulGiver #BiblicalGiving #ChristianPodcast #FaithWalk #2Corinthians9

This week on Iwitness2Go, Kolendra welcomes her husband, Brian Harrell, for a powerful and honest conversation about giving, generosity, and heart posture.

After celebrating the sold-out release of She Was Just a Girl at Barnes & Noble in Newnan, Georgia, the discussion shifts to what God placed on Brian’s heart: 2 Corinthians Chapter 9.

Many of us grew up hearing “pay your tithes.” But what does Scripture actually say? Paul reminds the church that giving is not about pressure, obligation, or emotional manipulation. It is about the condition of your heart.

God loves a cheerful giver. This is Part 1 of 2. Stay connected for next week’s continuation of this conversation.

Kolendra sits down with Cameron Smith for a raw and honest conversation about faith, family, church, prayer, finding your way back to God, and why your salvation through Jesus Christ cannot be taken away no matter where you are in your journey. Cam shares his journey from growing up in Southern Baptist churches and Christian private schools to serving in the military where he began questioning his faith and exploring what he truly believed.

Kolendra gets vulnerable about her own faith journey after losing both parents and learning to see God as Father, Friend, and Comforter when her earthly covering was gone.

This episode reminds us that believers are not perfect people. We are simply people who chose Jesus and are learning to walk out our faith in everyday life and business.

Kolendra speaks directly to people navigating the most emotionally charged season of the year: Valentine’s expectations and tax refund time. She walks through key Proverbs that keep repeating one message loud and clear: protect your peace, and use discernment before you let anyone get access to your heart, your home, or your money. 

This episode is part Bible study, part real-life check-in. Kolendra talks about why people often get reckless around February through April, when relationships and finances can get tangled fast, and why God’s wisdom is meant to keep you safe, steady, and whole. She challenges listeners to value peace over appearances, to stop living for what looks good, and to remember that God sees what happens after the camera stops rolling.

You will also hear a direct warning about smooth talk, flattery, and temptation, and how chasing attraction without wisdom can lead to loss, poverty, or danger. Kolendra makes it practical for everyday people, especially single moms and anyone who has ever had to learn boundaries the hard way. This is biblical discernment for relationships and money, with a call to accountability, community, and decisions rooted in God’s peace.

Witness 23: Kolendra shares the heart behind Iwitness2go — community, partnership, and faith — and opens up about choosing faith over fear and her personal journey with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.

This episode is a reflection on choosing presence over performance.

Sometimes we feel pressure to have the right words, the right energy, or the right presentation. This moment is simply about showing up as you are and letting that be enough.

“Go into all the world and preach the gospel…” Mark 16:15 NLT

This scripture is the foundation of Iwitness2go — a new chapter and a new name built around the call to witness.

Recorded live in the studio — uncut, unedited, audio and video.

I was excited, a little giddy, and having fun. The energy was high, the message stayed on track, and yes… I said “every girl is the story in someone’s story” when I meant of 😅

Press play, be encouraged, and enjoy the moment.
