In this special Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast interview from the Christian Product Expo Summer 2026, TS Wright welcomes returning guest Kathy Dye, whose Bible study The Song of Our Heart was selected as a Golden Scroll Awards finalist.

Kathy shares the deeply personal story behind the book, beginning with her mother’s battle with Alzheimer’s. Even when her mother could no longer recognize family members, she continued to remember and sing the words of beloved Christian hymns. That experience became part of the inspiration for Kathy’s message about the “song” God places within the life of a believer.

The conversation explores several important Psalms, including Psalm 1, Psalm 23, and especially Psalm 71, which became the foundation of Kathy’s Bible study. Psalm 71’s picture of looking back over a lifetime of God’s faithfulness—and then proclaiming His goodness to the next generation—became especially meaningful to Kathy as she entered a new season of life and ministry.

Kathy also encourages believers not to be afraid of sharing their testimony. Our witness does not always come through dramatic moments; often, we demonstrate God’s faithfulness through ordinary conversations, family relationships, teaching, serving, and faithfully walking with Christ each day.

In this episode:

• The story behind The Song of Our Heart
• Kathy Dye’s experience caring for her mother with Alzheimer’s
• Why hymns and worship can remain deeply rooted in the heart
• Lessons from Psalm 1 about being firmly planted in God’s Word
• Seeing God as Shepherd through Psalm 23
• Why Psalm 71 became Kathy’s favorite Psalm
• Remembering God’s faithfulness throughout every season of life
• Creating a spiritual timeline of God’s work in your life
• Sharing your testimony with confidence
• Passing faith and biblical truth to the next generation
• Finding hope, refuge, protection, and praise during seasons of fear and uncertainty

Kathy’s closing encouragement is simple and powerful: when facing fear or uncertainty, return to Psalm 71 and remember that God is your refuge, your protection, and your hope.

In this special episode of Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, recorded live at Christian Product Expo — CPE Summer 2026, TS Wright welcomes author, speaker, ministry leader, and AWSA founder Linda Evans Shepherd.

Linda shares how she came to Christ as a young girl and how her understanding of faith was transformed when her family experienced a devastating automobile accident involving her daughter. Rather than discovering a life without hardship, Linda learned that believers can walk through profound difficulty with the love, presence, and guidance of God.

Linda and TS discuss her book:

Praying the Word: 90 Scripture-Powered Prayers to Calm an Anxious Heart

Linda explains the principle behind the book: rather than approaching prayer only from the standpoint of our circumstances, believers can bring God's own Word back to Him in prayer.

The book includes 90 topics and Scripture-based prayers designed to help readers engage biblical truth, pray according to God's Word, listen for His direction, and journal what they believe God is speaking to their hearts. Linda describes it as an approach that combines Scripture, prayer, listening, and personal reflection.

• Linda Evans Shepherd's personal journey of faith
• Trusting God through suffering and unexpected tragedy
• Why Christianity does not promise a life free from hardship
• Developing a genuine relationship with God
• The importance of reading and praying Scripture
• How God's Word can shape our prayers
• Using Scripture when confronting anxiety
• Listening for God's direction while spending time in His Word
• The devotional and journaling approach of Praying the Word
• Why spiritual formation requires relationship with God
• The mission of AWSA — Advanced Writers and Speakers Association
• Encouraging Christian writers and speakers to develop their calling
• AWSA's retreats, conferences, workshops, fellowship, and awards
• The significance of the Golden Scroll Awards
• Why one book, page, message, or microphone can change someone's life
• Using personal testimony to encourage people to trust God
• The multiplying impact of Christian publishing, broadcasting, and media

Linda also discusses the ministry philosophy behind AWSA. The organization encourages Christian writers and speakers not merely to develop professionally, but to go deeper in their relationship with God and the Holy Spirit. At CPE Summer 2026, AWSA participants gathered for retreats, teaching, fellowship, workshops, and the Golden Scroll Awards.

One of the central themes of the conversation is the extraordinary reach of the written and spoken word. As Linda explains, Christian authors and speakers may never know who will encounter a particular page, broadcast, testimony, or message—but that encounter may encourage someone, strengthen someone's faith, or even become a turning point in that person's life.

TS Wright interviews Rebecca White of the Advanced Writers and Speakers Association (AWSA) live from the Christian Product Expo (CPE) 2026 in St. Charles, Missouri. Discover how AWSA equips Christian women authors through training, mentoring, prayer, marketing, publishing support, and the Golden Scroll Awards—all with the goal of sharing the Gospel and expanding Kingdom impact through Christian books.

Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast comes to you from the Christian Product Expo (CPE) in St. Charles, Missouri, where host TS Wright sits down with Rebecca White of AWSA—the Advanced Writers and Speakers Association.

Rebecca introduces listeners to the mission and ministry behind AWSA and explains why the organization holds its annual gathering alongside CPE. Christian retailers come to CPE looking for new books, gifts, jewelry, cards, artwork, and other Christian products, while authors have an opportunity to build relationships that can help place their books into independent Christian retail stores.

Rebecca explains that AWSA is much more than a professional writers' organization. Its members consider themselves “AWSA sisters,” building a culture of cooperation rather than competition. Authors encourage one another, promote one another's work, and recognize that the ultimate objective is larger than individual book sales: getting the message of Jesus Christ into the world.

• Why AWSA partners its annual event with the Christian Product Expo
• How Christian authors and independent Christian retailers can support one another
• AWSA's training and mentoring opportunities for published authors
• Why book launches, marketing, and AI have become important parts of author training
• The role of prayer, worship, and spiritual encouragement at the AWSA conference
• How Christian writers can reach audiences through fiction, nonfiction, Bible studies, devotionals, children's books, gift books, and more
• The purpose of the Golden Scroll Awards
• How the Christian Market Book Awards provide opportunities beyond AWSA membership
• Why Christian authors need community rather than competition
• Encouragement for aspiring writers who believe God has placed a message on their hearts
• AWSA's Protégé program for those who want help beginning their writing journey
• Why reaching children through Christian literature is especially important
• How every Christian writer can reach a different part of the harvest

Rebecca also describes the strong spiritual foundation of AWSA's conference—from prayer-warrior sessions and small-group prayer to worship and encouragement. As she emphasizes, Christian writers aren't simply producing products; they are carrying messages capable of reaching people with Christ.

One of the central themes of the conversation is simple: no single author can reach everyone. Different writers, genres, testimonies, and ministries can reach different audiences. The more Christian writers are equipped and encouraged to fulfill their calling, the farther the Gospel can travel.

Rebecca encourages established Christian authors who haven't yet “found their tribe” to explore AWSA, while aspiring authors can investigate opportunities to be trained and mentored as they develop the message God has placed within them.

Recorded at Christian Product Expo 2026 in St. Charles, Missouri.

What does the Bible teach about the relationship between repentance, confession, healing, and spiritual freedom?

In this episode of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, TS Wright welcomes Beatty Carmichael, author of The Prayer of Freedom. Beatty shares how his journey from the business world into healing ministry challenged his previous understanding of the supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Drawing from passages including Deuteronomy 28, Psalm 32, John 5, 1 Corinthians 11, and James 5, Beatty presents his biblical perspective on how unresolved sin may affect a person spiritually, emotionally, and physically. He also explains the prayer process he developed to help people identify underlying spiritual issues, confess and renounce sin, and seek freedom through Jesus Christ.

Beatty shares testimonies from his ministry, including his work with women in addiction recovery, and discusses the important progression from repentance to confession, forgiveness, healing, and abundant life.

In this conversation, you will discover:

• How Beatty’s understanding of divine healing developed
• The difference between a gift of healing and exercising biblical authority
• Scriptural passages connecting sin, confession, and healing
• What repentance means and why it involves a change of thinking
• How fear may manifest through anxiety and other forms of spiritual distress
• Why confession and repentance remain important for believers
• A practical, Scripture-centered approach to seeking spiritual freedom
• How freedom in Christ can lead to a more abundant life

Beatty’s central encouragement is simple: do not allow unconfessed sin to remain unaddressed. Bring everything before God, receive His forgiveness, and pursue the freedom Jesus Christ provides.

How can the words we speak either strengthen or slowly weaken a marriage?

Lori Yarbrough returns to Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to explore the biblical instruction, “Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt” (Colossians 4:6). Drawing from more than 40 years of marriage, Lori explains how gracious communication can preserve trust, add warmth, purify conflict, and promote healing between husbands and wives.

Lori and host TS Wright discuss the power of the tongue, the importance of listening before responding, and why speaking truth in love does not require avoiding difficult conversations. They also examine how criticism, sarcasm, public embarrassment, unresolved resentment, and careless words can create wounds that last for years.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why your words carry the power to build, heal, wound, or destroy

• What it means to season your speech with salt

• How gracious words preserve trust, intimacy, and unity

• How to address conflict without attacking your spouse

• Why listening is essential to healthy communication

• How prayer can change the atmosphere of a marriage

• Why forgiveness does not allow hurt to have the final word

• Four questions to ask before speaking

• A practical seven-day challenge for strengthening your marriage

Lori challenges every listener to spend seven days intentionally speaking a blessing, offering a sincere compliment, expressing gratitude, praying for their spouse, and avoiding one unnecessary criticism each day.

Healthy marriages are not built through one dramatic conversation. They are strengthened through thousands of grace-filled conversations shaped by the Holy Spirit.

Scriptures discussed include Colossians 4:6, Proverbs 18:21, Ephesians 4:15 and 4:29, James 1:19 and chapter 3, and Proverbs 15:1.

What happens when life does not unfold as you expected—and you reach the end of your own strength?

In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, TS Wright welcomes disability advocate, speaker, and author John Fela. John shares how his journey with his nonverbal son, who has profound autism, ultimately brought him to faith in Jesus Christ.

Raised in a culturally Catholic home, John later explored other spiritual paths but remained disconnected from biblical Christianity. When disability-related challenges affected his marriage, finances, career, and family life, John realized that he needed more than reassuring words—he needed genuine community, practical support, and lasting hope.

That search led him to a Christian men’s group, where believers welcomed him, listened to his struggles, and prayed for him. On one unforgettable stormy night in 2012, John surrendered his life to Jesus.

John also discusses his memoir, Faith Like My Father, and the surprising significance of two words repeatedly spoken by his earthly father: “Don’t panic.” Years later, while hearing a message based on Jesus’ teaching about worry in the Sermon on the Mount, John finally understood those words. That revelation helped him release years of anger and forgive his father.

In this conversation, you will hear about:

• Raising a child with profound autism and significant support needs

• Finding Christ during the lowest season of John’s life

• Why Christian community must offer more than comforting words

• The Church’s responsibility to welcome and support people with disabilities

• John’s work in disability advocacy and disability ministry

• Trusting God when faith does not immediately remove life’s problems

• Remaining obedient through divorce, single parenthood, and uncertainty

• Overcoming anger before it becomes deeply rooted bitterness

• Forgiving those who have wounded us

• Recognizing God’s providence in painful circumstances

• The message behind John’s memoir, Faith Like My Father

John’s testimony reminds us that following Jesus does not mean every problem disappears. It means we no longer face our problems alone. God remains present, orders our steps, and can use even our most painful experiences for His redemptive purposes.

If you are walking through a valley, caring for someone with a disability, struggling with anger, or wondering where God is in your circumstances, John’s story will encourage you to keep seeking Christ and refuse to panic.

What happens when the world tells you that you will never succeed—but God calls you toward something greater?

In this inspiring episode of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, TS Wright welcomes author, musician, and lifelong disciple of Jesus Christ Donald Williams. Donald recounts growing up in a Carolina cotton-mill family where poverty, limited opportunities, and generational expectations could have determined the course of his life.

Although Donald was discouraged from attending college and told that he did not have the money, family background, or ability to succeed, he refused to let other people define his future. Instead, he sought God’s direction, pursued his education, and broke a longstanding generational cycle.

Donald also reflects on the powerful Christian influence of his parents and grandfathers. Their prayers, worship, and faithful example showed him that following Christ involves more than what we say in church—it must be demonstrated through the way we live.

Donald and TS discuss:

• Receiving Jesus Christ at an early age

• Developing a personal faith instead of relying on a family tradition

• Growing up in a Carolina cotton-mill community

• Breaking generational cycles of poverty and limitation

• Overcoming discouraging words and expectations

• The influence of praying parents and grandparents

• Why children need to see an authentic Christian example

• Discovering and following God’s plan for your life

• The importance of Christian discipleship

• Donald’s book, Born of Nothing

• The stories behind his original gospel songs

• Finding hope in the promise of seeing Christian loved ones again

Donald’s message is simple but powerful: Do not allow other people to dictate where you will end up. Pray for God’s direction, surround yourself with people who strengthen your faith, work diligently at knowing Christ, and allow God—not your circumstances—to define your life.

Divorce can leave a person feeling broken, isolated, and uncertain about the future—but it does not have to be the end of the story.

In this episode of Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, TS Wright speaks with author and life coach Karen Kambourian about her book, Wife to Warrior: Reinventing Yourself After Divorce. Karen shares her personal journey from heartbreak and lost identity to spiritual healing, strength, and renewed purpose in Christ.

Karen explains how God drew her back into Christian community during one of the most difficult periods of her life. Anchored by the truth that God is close to the brokenhearted, she began rebuilding her life through prayer, gratitude, supportive relationships, church involvement, and service to others.

You’ll discover:

• Why God must remain at the center of your identity and relationships
• How prayer walks can create space for healing and reflection
• A simple daily gratitude practice that can shift your mindset
• Why Christian community is essential during divorce, grief, and major life changes
• How serving others can help you move beyond isolation
• Why healing should come before entering a new relationship
• How an ending can become God’s redirection toward a new beginning
• The hope behind Karen’s message: “The sun will rise”

Whether you are experiencing divorce, grieving the loss of a spouse, or rebuilding your life after an unexpected transition, this conversation offers biblical encouragement and practical steps for moving forward.

What if homemaking were about more than maintaining a beautiful home? What if it were also a sacred opportunity to glorify God, disciple your family, and welcome others with the love of Christ?

In this episode of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, T.S. Wright welcomes Gina Romero, author of Welcome Home: A Guide to Homemaking from the Heart. Gina shares her powerful testimony of walking away from her faith, suffering a debilitating spinal injury, and ultimately returning to God as a modern-day prodigal.

Gina also recounts the difficult pregnancy and premature birth of her daughter, Estella, who arrived three months early and weighed only one pound. Through this season of trauma, prayer, and dependence upon God, Gina began to recognize His greater purpose for her life.

Years later, God called her to write a book about homemaking. Gina responded in obedience, completing the manuscript in six weeks. Welcome Home became a number-one Amazon new release and launched a growing ministry dedicated to helping women approach their homes, families, and responsibilities from a biblical perspective.

In this conversation, Gina and T.S. discuss:

• Returning to God after a prodigal season
• Trusting God through pain, trauma, and uncertainty
• Recognizing and obeying God’s calling
• Homemaking as a ministry rather than a pursuit of perfection
• Biblical hospitality and welcoming others as Jesus did
• Stewarding the home, finances, possessions, and family memories
• Creating practical household and organizational systems
• Using family meals to disciple children
• Learning from the Proverbs 31 and Titus 2 women
• Understanding the complementary roles of men and women
• Following God’s calling at home, in ministry, and in the marketplace
• Allowing ministry and responsible income-producing work to coexist

Gina reminds us that Christian homemaking is not defined by the labels “traditional” or “progressive.” It begins with seeking the Lord, listening to His voice, and faithfully following the unique assignment He has prepared for each person.

As Gina explains, others may teach us how to create beautiful things in our homes, but only God can teach us who we should become while doing them.

Your story is for God’s glory. Whether your calling leads you into the home, the boardroom, the ministry, or the marketplace, the central question remains: Are you seeking God, listening to His direction, and following where He leads?

CALL TO ACTION

How can your home become a place of discipleship, hospitality, and God’s presence?

Is evangelism an obligation—or the natural overflow of a life filled with Jesus?

Andrew Steier, founder of Always Going and author of Always Going, joins TS Wright for a practical conversation about developing an everyday faith that extends beyond the walls of the church.

Andrew shares how growing up in a pastor’s home led to a performative faith—and how encountering the emptiness of life without Christ eventually transformed his relationship with God. That experience became the foundation for helping Christians confidently live and share their faith.

Andrew and TS discuss why evangelism and discipleship must work together. Before believers can effectively fulfill the Great Commission, they must first be formed through an intimate, continuing relationship with Jesus and empowered by the Holy Spirit.

In this episode:

• Moving from performative Christianity to an authentic relationship with Jesus
• Why evangelism and discipleship are two sides of the same coin
• Understanding “overflow evangelism”
• Becoming an ambassador and reconciler for Christ
• How spiritual formation prepares believers to share the gospel
• Replacing fear and obligation with invitation and joy
• Communicating the gospel without confusing Christian terminology
• Using your personal testimony to glorify God and reach others
• Measuring spiritual growth through the fruit of the Spirit
• Eight heart-check questions for everyday evangelism

Andrew reminds us that evangelism is not merely a job, expectation, or obligation. It is an invitation to join God’s mission—and an overflow of knowing and loving Jesus.
