In Session 2 of our women's gathering, Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of God, we explore the beautiful reality of liberty—the freedom that Christ secured for us through His death, burial, and resurrection.

What does it mean to be truly free? Is freedom simply doing what we want, or is it something far greater? Together, we examine the difference between the world's definition of freedom and the freedom found in the gospel. Through Scripture, we discover how Jesus has set us free from condemnation, shame, fear, legalism, and the power of sin, inviting us into a new life led by His Spirit.

This conversation traces God's redemptive story from the promises of the prophets to the finished work of Christ, revealing our true identity as citizens of heaven and beloved children of God. We discuss what it looks like to walk by faith, renew our minds to what is true, and live from the reality that Christ Himself now lives in us.

Whether you're struggling with old labels, striving to earn God's approval, or simply longing to experience more of the abundant life Jesus promised, this session is an encouragement to embrace the liberty that is already yours in Christ.

Because freedom isn't found in getting our own way—it's found in living from the life, love, and victory of Jesus!

What does it mean to truly live? And what happened when you became a Christian?

In this conversation from our Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of God series, Deb and Lori reflect on the life that Jesus offers—a life that begins with being born again and continues in daily fellowship with Him.

Drawing from Scripture and their own experiences of walking with the Lord, they discuss the reality of eternal life, the transforming power of God's Word, and the work of the Holy Spirit in revealing Christ to us. Together, they explore the difference between knowing about God and truly knowing Him, discovering that genuine life, freedom, joy, and hope are found in a living relationship with Jesus.

This conversation is a reminder that the gospel is not merely a message about life after death, but an invitation to participate in the very life of Christ today. As believers abide in Him, they find assurance of God's presence, confidence in His provision, and joy that remains regardless of circumstances.

Join us as we consider the beauty of life in Christ and the reality of the gospel that continues to transform hearts.

In this deeply honest and beautiful conversation, Deb shares what it has looked like to embrace singleness with Jesus. Together, we talk about seasons of loneliness, unmet desires, surrender, and the gentle work of God in the hidden places of the heart.

Rather than hardening her heart through disappointment, Deb shares how the Lord drew her into a deeper intimacy with Him—showing her that He truly is enough. What unfolds is a testimony of friendship, romance, trust, and wholehearted devotion to Jesus.

Whether you’re single, married, grieving, waiting, or simply longing for deeper intimacy with God, we pray this conversation reminds you that Jesus meets us fully in every season and lovingly draws us closer to Himself.

While walking the Weiser Trail, Deb recorded a voice memo conversation with the Lord in real time. No teaching plan. No polished structure. Just an honest walk with God and a willingness to follow where He led.

As Deb processes truth out loud, you’ll hear moments of silence, reflection, and even the sound of her stopping to dig after an old metal plate buried in the ground—a moment we almost removed, but ultimately realized carried a deeper picture.

Sometimes the Lord calls us to dig.

To keep pursuing truth beneath our feelings, fears, and false identities until we uncover what He has always said is true.

What if God’s Word is more real than our emotions?

This episode is an invitation to slow down, take a walk, and listen with the Lord.

We pray it encourages you to lean in, keep digging, and discover again the truth of who you are in Christ.

What does it mean to walk by the Spirit?

In this episode, we look at the promise given in Galatians 5—that when we walk by the Spirit, we will not carry out the desires of the flesh. This isn’t about behavior management or trying harder. It’s about living led by Him.

As we walk with the Spirit, He produces the fruit. He transforms our desires. And He leads us into a life marked by freedom and fullness in Him.

This conversation brings us back to one simple truth: desire Him, walk with Him, and trust what He will do.

This episode is the fourth and final session from the A Matter of Life and Breath series , where we’ve been walking through Galatians 2:20—what it means to be crucified with Christ and to now live by faith in the Son of God.

This conversation begins in an honest place: forgiveness.

In light of the love of God, we often have to confront the ways unforgiveness has taken root in our hearts. Deb shares personally about the weight of unforgiveness, how it leads to bitterness, and how it subtly distorts our ability to believe the truth about who God is.

Through repentance and renewal, we’re invited into alignment with what is true—that God’s love is not conditional, distant, or fragile… but constant, personal, and already given.

As the conversation unfolds, we return to the anchor of Galatians 2:20: that we are loved, and that Jesus gave Himself for us.

This is more than a concept—it’s a reality we’re invited to live from.

This episode is a call into deeper discipleship, into living by faith, and into the freedom that comes from being fully known and fully loved by God.

In this third session of A Matter of Life and Breath, recorded live at a women’s gathering, we center our conversation on a powerful phrase from Galatians 2:20:

“The life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God…”

What does it actually look like to live this way?

Together, we explore the invitation to live right here in our everyday lives by faith in Jesus—not striving to become something, but living from what is already true in Him.

This conversation gently brings us back to reality:

• Faith isn’t something we add to our life—it’s the very way we live now
• The unseen life in Christ is more real than anything we experience naturally
• We are not the source of goodness—He is, and His life in us is enough

Through Scripture, personal testimony, and honest reflection, this episode is an invitation to rest in what is already finished… and to live from the life of Christ within you.

And at the very end, you’ll hear a brand new song written out of this very revelation—that the goodness of God isn’t just something we receive… it becomes our good.

In this episode of Rooted and Woven, we’re continuing from last week’s session from the women’s event, where Deb spoke. In session one, we talked about what it means to be crucified with Christ… and now we’re stepping into the next part: “it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.”

This conversation really centers on what that actually looks like in real life.

Not just as an idea we agree with, but as something we live from.

We talk a lot about dependence on Jesus—how easy it is to slip back into striving, and how freeing it is to remember that we were never meant to be the source of our own life. There’s a letting go here… and also a deeper kind of living.

You’ll hear us talk through things like:

• what it means to walk in humility instead of self-effort
• being raised with Christ into a completely new kind of life
• how the cross and resurrection really shape everything
• noticing God at work in both the big, miraculous moments and the everyday ones
• living as a new creation right now, not someday
• stepping out of performance and back into grace
• what it looks like to die to self in the middle of normal life
• and what it means that Christ Himself is actually living in us

More than anything, this episode is an invitation.

An invitation to stop striving… and to rest in the reality that Jesus is your life—and He’s faithful to live through you.

This episode was recorded live at a women’s gathering, where we spent the weekend slowing down and anchoring ourselves in one powerful verse: Galatians 2:20.

In this first session, Deb gently invites us to focus on the opening phrase: “I have been crucified with Christ.” Together, we explore what this foundational truth really means—and why it changes everything.

Through biblical teaching, historical context from the Apostle Paul’s letters, and testimony of God's work, this session unpacks the significance of the finished work of Christ and the new life we’ve been brought into through Him. It addresses the tension between performance-based Christianity and the spiritual reality of being fully united with Christ.

As we look closely at this first statement, we begin to see that our identity is no longer something we strive to build—but something we’ve already been given.

This is where freedom begins.
This is where striving ends.
This is where we believe God for who we are.

Whether you’re feeling weary from trying to “get it right” or simply longing to go deeper in your faith, this conversation is an invitation to rest in what is already finished—and to live from what is already true.

What happens when we begin to parent from the whole gospel instead of a partial one?

In this episode, Deb, Caffe, Lori, and Stephanie talk about how our understanding of the gospel shapes every area of life—from marriage and relationships to the way we raise our children.

A partial gospel can leave parents feeling like everything depends on them: managing behavior, suppressing struggles, and trying to raise children who reflect a “good Christian life.” The pressure can be overwhelming.

But the whole gospel tells a different story.

Jesus is not only our Savior—He is our Lord, and He is actively transforming us from the inside out. When we begin to live from the security of belonging to Him, parenting begins to change. The pressure to perform fades, the myth of balance loosens its grip, and we begin to rest in the work Christ is doing.

And the promise of the gospel doesn’t stop with us—God is at work in our children as well.

This conversation invites parents to move from striving to trust and to discover the freedom of parenting from the rest we have in Christ.
