In this episode of Rooted, Josie and Symone dive into a deeply encouraging conversation with Maya Mae Huff—Christian podcaster, speaker, entrepreneur, and co-host of the Overflow Podcast. Maya shares her powerful journey of faith, obedience, and trusting God not just with big decisions, but with the smallest details of life.
From hiking Mount Kilimanjaro with Compassion International to learning how waiting seasons refine our faith, Maya opens up about rest, calling, creativity, and navigating comparison in the age of social media. She reflects on Psalm 23, God’s delight in His children, and a remarkable story that shows how prayer and trust can transform hearts—even through something as simple as a lost pair of sunglasses.
This episode is a reminder that God is present in every detail, faithful in waiting seasons, and deeply invested in shaping our hearts through obedience, rest, and surrender.

In this powerful episode of the Rooted Podcast, hosts Josie and Symone Harms sit down with longtime friend and police officer Caleb Witte to discuss what it looks like to live out authentic Christian faith in everyday life—especially in high-pressure, real-world environments.
Caleb shares his journey into law enforcement, how God called him to serve others, and the ways Jesus shows up on the job—most memorably during a welfare check that became a divine opportunity to point someone back to church and community. From there, the conversation dives deep into salvation by grace, understanding the gospel beyond works, the power of mentorship, forgiveness after heartbreak, memorizing Scripture, and making decisions without needing absolute certainty.
This episode is a reminder that missions don’t only happen overseas—sometimes they happen on patrol, in college dorms, through breakups, and in everyday obedience.

In this episode of Rooted, hosts Josie and Symone sit down with Rachel from Yield & Grace, a fast-growing faith-driven creator helping people—especially women—approach investing with confidence, wisdom, and biblical perspective.
Rachel shares her personal journey into investing, how her father mentored her in financial stewardship, and why she felt God calling her to share her story publicly despite fear. The conversation covers practical investing strategies like high-yield ETFs, dividend income, Roth IRAs, and Bitcoin—while grounding everything in faith, character, and stewardship.
This episode tackles tough questions many believers wrestle with:
Is investing biblical? Can you pursue wealth without putting money before God? How do you tithe from investment income? Why should women understand finances, even within traditional faith contexts?
Rachel also opens up about criticism she’s faced as a Christian woman talking about money, how she stays rooted in truth, and why financial freedom is about more than numbers—it’s about identity, obedience, and legacy. Whether you’re brand new to investing or looking to align your finances with your faith, this episode will encourage you to start small, think long-term, and trust God through the process.

In this episode of the Rooted Podcast, Josie and Symone sit down with Bruce Crevier—world record basketball spinner, America’s Got Talent finalist, and founder of Champions Forever. Bruce shares how growing up in a large family shaped his character, how his faith became personal at age 14, and how he and his family have used basketballs and unicycles to share the Gospel in over 40 countries. From breaking Guinness World Records to performing on the NBA stage and even in prisons, Bruce’s story is about more than talent—it’s about surrendering your gifts to God, persevering through trials, and discovering true joy in Jesus. He shares wisdom on family, character, and courage, and reminds us that being a champion is less about trophies and more about faith, obedience, and living for something greater than ourselves.
