Como hijos de Dios, plagiamos cuando nos declaramos “creadores de nuestro propio éxito” o cuando comenzamos a celebrar nuestros talentos por encima de Aquel que nos los dio. Es bueno recordar que todo lo bueno en nosotros y todo logro alcanzado es, en realidad, un reflejo de Su gracia y amor manifestado ennuestras vidas. Así que, hoy, dejemos de plagiar la gloria de Dios y comencemos a vivir con humilde gratitud.

This week, we hear from two remarkable women who dared to pursue their dreams even when faced with disbelief, ultimately dedicating their lives to helping others through their art and work. First, country music star Mickey Guyton shares her journey of breaking barriers and finding her voice in an industry that wasn’t always ready for her. Then, author and speaker Lea Hurley opens up about how her personal health experiences shaped a life and a business she created to help herself but ended up helping others in a way she never dreamed possible.

Interview Quotes:

“The challenges were people trying to change who I was or trying to interpret who I was as a black woman. And I understand the cultural differences, but people were trying to make me palatable to a country music audience.” - Mickey Guyton

“Country music literally fell into my lap. “It was a God thing. It was a spiritual thing. It chose me.” - Mickey Guyton

“I was like, ‘Why do you think country music isn’t working for me?’ And my husband was like, ‘Because you’re running away from everything that makes you different. Country music is three chords and the truth. Why aren’t you leaning into that?’” - Mickey Guyton 

“I’m not only pursuing a career for myself, but pursuing a career for people that come after me. How can I help them? This may never happen for me, but how can I help the people that are coming up after me?” – Mickey Guyton 

“I would say to anyone out there who is struggling to change either physically or mentally or emotionally that you really need to dig d

Struggling to find meaning in today’s chaotic world? Jeremy Stalnecker shares how true identity and purpose come from God not careers, relationships, or activities that change.

“There are really only two kinds of people in this world—people in recovery who know they are, and people in recovery who think they're not.”

Tullian Tchividjian was on top of the Christian world. A bestselling author, megachurch pastor, sought-after speaker—and yes, the grandson of Billy Graham. Then everything imploded. 

After a very public affair and ministry collapse, Tullian disappeared from the spotlight. But it was in that wilderness season that he encountered something deeper than the shame that threatened to kill him and the people that tried to bury him: the radical, scandalous grace of God.

In this vulnerable, raw, and hope-filled episode, Tullian talks about what it’s like to fall hard and yet be caught by Jesus. He opens up about his story, shame, addiction, recovery (even for those not struggling with substances), the church's response to sanctification, and what happens when you build your life on performance. This is an episode about honesty, identity, and why real Christianity might look more like a 12-step meeting than a church service.

If you've ever wrestled with shame, questioned your standing with God, or wondered if there's grace for "someone like you," this episode is for you.

We explore:

—How Tullian went from prodigal to pastor to pariah
—Why the church often runs from grace instead of toward it
—The difference between guilt and shame—and why identity matters
—Why grace isn't soft on sin but the only real power to change
—What radical vulnerability looks like in practice
—Why churches should look more like recovery meetings
—The lifelong nature of recovery, even without substance addiction
—How grace makes us honest, and law keeps us hiding
—Why sanctification isn’t about climbing higher but falling deeper into grace
—The gift of being "uncancellable" through confession and grace

The approval trap is ensnaring way too many of us... what do I mean by this? We are drawn into the need for man's approval and applause, for everyone to love us or, at the very least, like us, and to never fail anyone's assumptions about us. But this is unrealistic. Friends, we are now living for an audience of One when we become Christians, and God's approval and affection toward us should be enough! Let's talk about it.

Have you ever been in a season where you knew God's promises in your head, but your heart felt completely numb to them?

Maybe you've read "I will never leave you nor forsake you" but felt utterly alone. Or someone reminded you that "God works all things together for good" and you wanted to scream because nothing felt good at all.

When you can't feel God's promises and your faith feels too weak to carry you, it's easy to wonder if you're failing spiritually. If you've ever struggled to believe what you know is true, this episode will show you how borrowed faith can carry you through seasons when your own faith feels depleted.

Rachel explores how trust is a choice, not a feeling, and reveals how God designed us to lean on others when our own faith feels weak.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why it's okay to lean on someone else's faith when yours feels weak
• How the Israelites in Babylon needed Jeremiah to speak God's promises over them
• Three practical ways to stand on God's promises when you can't feel them
• The biblical foundation of borrowing faith found in Revelation 12:11
• A personal story of how Rachel carried her husband's faith during his unemployment and how that taught them both that trust is a choice

Rachel also shares how her new "Praying the Promises of God: A 52-Week Guided Prayer Journal" can provide borrowed faith from God's own Word when your emotions don't align with truth.

Have you ever felt out of place in women’s friendships, even within the church? You’re not alone. My guest, Natalie Runion—author of I Don’t Even Like Women and Other Lies that Get in the Way of Sacred Sisterhood—shares her honest journey from feeling disconnected to finding purpose in women’s ministry. Together, we explore how authentic connection and encouragement can break down barriers of competition and replace them with collaboration.

From the beauty of multi-generational friendships to the role of encouragement in sisterhood, Natalie reminds us that humility and honesty are game changers. This conversation offers hope, practical wisdom, and a roadmap for cultivating real, life-giving friendships rooted in faith.

And remember, I'd love to connect more on Instagram, where you'll find me at @donnaajones.

Psalm 31 isn’t just a heartfelt prayer—it’s a raw, vulnerable cry from David’s soul that reminds us we can bring everything before God: our fears, our doubts, our complaints, and yes, even our praise. It’s both a lament and a declaration of trust, showing us that faith doesn’t mean ignoring pain but inviting God right into the middle of it.

Join us for this 18-minute time of prayer and scripture reading as we walk through Psalm 31 together, learning how to turn complaints into confidence and despair into praise.

In today’s episode of the Built Different Podcast, Zach Bowsher, worship leader at Thomas Road Baptist Church and leader in their young adult ministry (TRYA), joins the show to share how worship can be a powerful weapon in life’s wilderness seasons. Together Dr. Zach and Zach discuss how praise can shift our perspective, why quiet time with God in hidden places matters, and how worship is more than a Sunday setlist, it’s a daily choice. This conversation will encourage you to fight your battles with faith-filled praise and cultivate intimacy with God in every season.
