Welcome to the ML Podcast—a place where stories and honest conversations come together to meet people right where they are. Everyone has a story or two or three or more of what God is doing in their heart and in their life. These stories have the power to touch the hearts of others and change lives for eternity. So we knew we had to do something. We needed a way to get these stories out there—to encourage, inspire, and remind us all that God is at work. That is what led us to the podcast. It is our way of saying, “Hey, look what God is doing… and imagine what He will do next.”

It all started with a simple idea tossed around between coffee and conversation: “What if we started a podcast?” The church is not a building—it is a community. And sometimes, that community shows up in your earbuds.
