This episode was indeed a challenge, but sometimes we have to keep going for the sake of not giving in to the tears, frustrations, and cuss words that are on the tip of your tongue.

Lord willing, season 6 will wrap up next week. Can you believe it? Where has the year gone?

This week's episode is full of heart, humor, and hope as we talk about the changing seasons of life and parenting. From graduation emotions and advice for senior mamas, to small-town festivals (hello, West TN Strawberry Festival 🍓) and a stop at San Antonio Taco Company, we cover the fun and meaningful moments that make up everyday life.

We also discuss why childlike play can be healing for our nervous systems, how our desire to control often comes from fear, and why trusting God with the next season brings peace.

We share summer reading recommendations, spiritual lessons from transitions, and the reminder that joy is sacred because of Christ. No matter your circumstances, real joy is available through the Holy Spirit.

This week's episode is equal parts celebration and reflection. We're recapping Angela's "50 & Fabulous" birthday weekend in Franklin full of fun, laughter, and meaningful moments with the people she loves most.

But beyond the celebration, this milestone sparked some honest questions we're all invited to consider in any new season:

• What do I want to carry forward?
• What am I ready to leave behind?
• How do I want to show up for the people who matter most?

We talk about releasing expectations, embracing presence, and learning to celebrate the "little things" that make up a meaningful life. Because sometimes the biggest shifts don't come from major life changes, but from seeing our everyday lives with fresh eyes.

In this episode, we're talking about everything from Oura rings and energy drinks to funny church stories, bucket list dreams, and those "come along with me" friendships we all need. But underneath it all, we keep coming back to one question: What is actually filling us? Because no supplement, habit, or routine can replace the true source of peace, strength, and joy.

"Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well." — 1 Thessalonians 2:8

If you're trying to get healthier, live fuller, and stay grounded in what really matters, this one's for you. 💛

What do glow-in-the-dark pickleball, space missions, and a scalp massage have in common? Honestly… we're still not sure. 😄

This week's episode is classic Rambling Through Everyday Life, from Fran's nighttime pickleball tournament to our thoughts on Artemis II, a Tennessee Supreme Court session on Union's campus, and a surprising new favorite card game (SkyJo, anyone?).

We also talk about rising star Emily Ann Roberts (aka Yeehaw Mamaw 🤠), share a powerful quote from Dr. Caroline Leaf, and reflect on legacy, memory, and what really lasts, especially as Angela remembers her mom 28 years later.

It's funny. It's meaningful. It's a little all over the place… and somehow exactly where we need to be.

Happy Easter Monday, friends! This episode is full of our favorite kind of conversation: real life, real faith, and a little bit of everything in between. We talk about our Easter traditions, what Holy Saturday teaches us about rest and waiting, and wrestle with a question that really matters: "what's the big deal about Jesus?"

We keep coming back to this: without the resurrection, there is no Christianity. It's the reason for our hope and the foundation of everything we believe.

You'll also hear about Fran's upcoming NYC ministry opportunity, our new memory verse (Jeremiah 17:7–8), and a few lighthearted, unexpected moments that make this episode feel like you're just sitting at the table with us.

We're so thankful you're here laughing, learning, and growing with us as we follow Jesus in our everyday lives.

Pack your bags, grab your passport (real or imaginary) and get ready for some fun with our fabulous guest and adventure expert, Lisa Houston! We talk travel ideas for every budget, both local and abroad, and you will love hearing Lisa's recap of her recent adventures including Iceland, Italy and the Exumas.

March memory verse:

"Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen." 1 Peter 4:10-11 NIV

This episode is a little bit of everything and the kind of rambling conversation we love most.

We share stories from recent adventures, including a trip to the Walmart Museum in Bentonville, a mission trip to Honduras (yes, there's a cow involved), and a few memorable characters along the way including Abraham the goat.

We also talk about some meaningful ways people in our community are serving others, from caregiver support groups to a creative "Egg My Yard" fundraiser that's bringing neighbors together.

But in the middle of all the stories, we land on a deeper question: What is a lie you may be believing about yourself, and what does Scripture say is actually true? We talk about the power of encouraging others, calling out the good we see in people, and remembering that God has uniquely gifted each of us to serve.

Our March memory verse reminds us: "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms." 1 Peter 4:10–11

So whether you're listening for the laughs, the life updates, or the encouragement, we hope this episode reminds you of one simple truth: You were created on purpose, and your life is meant to bless others.
