Number 2: Summer Reset: REPLAY // Stereotypes and Other Unhelpful Assumptions
How do we honor people well who aren't living our same reality? In this Summer Reset episode of the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle takes on the assumptions, stereotypes, and casual phrases that quietly communicate to single people in the church that their life is somehow less complete, and to married people that everyone shares their experience. From the well-meaning Instagram post telling single friends to "get yourself a husband who..." to the thoughtless question asking parents if they're planning more children, Lisa makes the case that we are far more self-absorbed in our conversations than we realize, and that the church can and should do better. Rooted in Matthew 28:19 and a clear-eyed look at what our highest call actually is, this episode is for the single person who has felt unseen, the married person who didn't realize how they were landing, and anyone who wants to love the people around them with more intention. Listen in to learn more: What the Bible actually says about singleness, marriage, and our highest call as human beings Why Matthew 28:19 levels the playing field, and what that means for how we see each other The assumptions married people make without realizing it (and why they land the way they do) The assumptions single people carry too (and the stereotypes that go both directions) An example from Lisa's personal life and why presumptive conversations are more painful than we think A challenge to align our hearts with the mind of Christ Mentioned in the Episode: Episode — Maddie Pruitt on Dating and Marriage: https://www.lisawhittle.com/joeshow/joe-s10e15 Book — God Knows by Lisa Whittle: https://www.lisawhittle.com/godknows Invite Lisa to Speak: https://www.lisawhittle.com/speaking Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial

Number 3: Summer Reset: REPLAY // Susie Larson on Redeeming Your Story
What does it mean to truly draw near to God? Not as a method or a spiritual technique, but as a settled confidence in who he is and how he feels about you? In this Summer Reset episode of the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle sits down with author, speaker, and renowned radio host Susie Larson for a conversation rooted in Susie's book, Closer Than Your Next Breath.

Number 4: Summer Reset: REPLAY // Cliques, Popularity, and Playing Church
What was the Acts 2 church meant to be? And how far have we drifted from it? Continuing the Summer Reset series on the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle tackles a topic her own audience asked her to address: cliques, popularity dynamics, and comfortable social circles that quietly take root in the very place designed to be their opposite. Drawing on real messages from listeners, teachings from top theologians, and a challenge rooted in Matthew 28, Lisa makes the case that playing church – surrounding ourselves with people who look, act, and think just like us – is more than a social problem. It's a spiritual one. This is a conversation for anyone who's ever felt the gap between what the church is supposed to be and what it sometimes is, and wants to close it. Listen in to learn more: Why Lisa almost didn't make this episode and what changed her mind The listener's message about cliques in women's ministry that started it all What the Acts 2 church was actually designed to be (and what it was never meant to be) How our social patterns have replaced the mission of the church Why cliques have no place in a community called to unity The connection between comfortable Christianity and a lazy faith What is really at risk when we miss the person sitting alone A hard question: Are we living for Jesus or for popularity and comfort?
