Gym routines, fear, anxiety. They don't exactly tie together, but let's talk about it all! Nobody wants to talk about fear and anxiety. Human nature is to avoid them at all cost. It can prey on us at every level. God offers us freedom, but it can still be difficult to choose the peace He gives us. Fortunately, in His endless mercy, He offers this peace day after day, never leaving our side.

In this episode, you get to learn a little more about us! All the way from the beginning when Steve found out he was going to be a father to twin boys.

Our Preacher in the Hat team is thrilled to welcome Valorie Gochnauer to the podcast! With her help (and songwriting skills!) we talk about being content in the moments God has placed us.

Fast. Faster. Fastest. Everything in our world is about how quickly things can get done. How quickly we can meet deadlines at work. How quickly that Amazon delivery can get here. It's easy for that "need for speed" to creep into our lives and influence our life patterns. How do we slow down the hurry so we can breathe for a second and hear His voice? Let's take our time and talk about it!

Friend of the show, Ron Burt, joins us for one more episode of guest testimonials from our Streetlights series. The best part? You don’t need to have listened to any prior episodes to understand or enjoy hearing his great story.

Let's welcome in another guest, Tina Sumpter! Tina joins us to talk about healthy attachment, not just to others, but our Savior. Listen to a beautiful story of her real life example of healthy attachment through the adoption of her daughter. 

Let's talk about the love of our Savior. In all of its complexity. Or simplicity? Maybe it's far easier to understand than we like to make it. God wants us to understand it in the way a child does. Just that He's always there, and always will be. Always.

Where is God? We got the answer from a 4 year old. His answer was complete Biblical truth. But, he can't even read yet. How could he know? Fortunately for us, God didn't make this answer super complex. It can be answered simply in a single word from a child. Everywhere.

"Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast." - Psalm 139:7-12

Please Welcome to the 4th Chair our friend, Greg Ledet! It was such an honor for Greg to come and join us in studio, all the way from Chipley, Florida. Greg has an incredible story of what it is like to come home when God turns on the Street Lights (Episode 9 reference). Greg’s story is full of things like redemption, grace, healing and faith. Make sure you catch this one!

Everybody loves a good homecoming story. So, lets take a few minutes to reflect on our own. When God calls us back to His arms, there is peace, redemption, mercy, wisdom, grace and so much more. If home is where the heart is, let home be where He is!
