Laura Moore works with refugees in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, as a missionary with SEND International. She talks to us about what ministry to refugees looks like in Lancaster - helping refugee or recently immigrated families adjust to the ins and outs of life in their new home. Her concern for refugees is greatly informed by her own experiences as a foreigner living and working as a missionary in Ukraine over the course of 20 years. Ultimately, though, her love for refugees comes from God. She talks to us about God's character and how she has seen him faithfully comfort and provide for her in her times of need, and for the people she works with in their needs.

Mark Osborne pastors Mountain View Baptist Church in Somerset West, Cape Town, South Africa. In this interview, he talks to us how God has been revealing himself during the past year+ of COVID lockdowns. As with many of our interviews, this one covers a variety of topics, but Mark keeps coming back to a central theme: philosophies that appeal to us vs. what we see in the Bible. As a young adult, meditation and new age philosophy appealed to Mark, but God used a verse in Galatians to change his mind. Now, Mark says, they are seeing local Christians drawn back to the Bible as well. Instead of seeking new revelation from modern-day prophets, people are realizing that they already have access to the truth about God, and it can be found in the Bible.

Mark also shares some of his favorite moments with God, how the church supported him personally in a frightening moment, how God has worked through "Family Fun Nights", and his growing understanding of how God's various characteristics work together.

Podcast host Emma Moore is the interviewee in this conversation between Jan and Emma about seeing God in the midst of potty training, child birth, and more moments in parenting. There is a surprising amount of poop talk on this episode, but as Emma says, "God is not afraid of our bodies."

Cindi Syvertson is a stay-at-home mom to biological, adopted and foster children. She and her husband were living nominally Christian lives but lacking a healthy personal relationship with God. A health scare at the time of Cindi's first pregnancy drew her to seek God for herself, and after experiencing him, she says there was no going back. Over the years, God nudged the Syvertsons toward foster care. In this episode, Cindi tells us about their decision to become foster parents, what their foster care experience has looked like, how God has provided for them, how she deals with the anxieties that accompany parenting generally and specifically foster care, and much more.

Harry - Emma's dad and Jan's husband - is on the podcast this time, talking about how he has seen God recently. He's been isolated with Jan for the past year, by her side during surgeries and recoveries as well as working remotely throughout that time. He reflects on: seeing God better through what is revealed in the Scriptures; disciplines that have fueled his hope; having COVID; his favorite characteristic of God, and more.

Lamar King is a Financial Advisor and Vice President of Relationship Development at Bare Wealth Advisors. Bare Wealth is a financial planning and investment management group that focuses on advising clients to intentionally manage wealth in alignment with their God-given purposes. Lamar talks to us about what 2020 looked like in regards to personal finance, and specifically how COVID-19 impacted individuals' financial situations in a variety of ways. He tells us how he saw God in the midst of that, from Christian advising firms gathering and praying for wisdom to best advise their clients to clients showing generosity in the midst of uncertainty. He also responds to the difficult question of God's work in an environment of increasing wealth inequality.

Warning: This episode contains a brief description of a dream that may be frightening to very young children.

Kayte and Luke Abaffy live in a tiny house in a field in Ohio. He's a freelance journalist, she takes care of the kids, and they make documentaries together. They believe that Jesus' death and resurrection have saved them from their sin and made them righteous before God. They also follow the Old Testament Law.

In this episode, Kayte and Luke talk to us about how they came to live according to the Law, how their lives look different now, and what they have seen of God in the process. This episode is an interesting discussion for anyone who may have wondered what value the Law has for Christians, and why many Christians don't live the way Jesus actually lived. These questions are also explored in more depth in Luke and Kayte's documentary "The Way" and in their subsequent documentary "The Christmas Question".

Katie Maynard is a missionary with Chosen People Ministries in New Zealand with her husband, Brendan, and her two boys. She talks to us about 2020 and how God pulled the rug out from under their well-laid ministry plans when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. She voices the emotions that many of us had in a situation like this: "If we had just ______ , we would have been safe and we wouldn't have had to deal with any of this." But she doesn't stop there, and we get to hear about how God has been sanctifying her, their team, and the local church as they have faced the curveballs He has thrown them.

We're kicking off Season 2 of the Seeing God podcast! In this introduction, Jan and Emma chat about what they thought about Season 1 and what to expect in Season 2. Bonus: cameos from Emma's son Finn and a pregnancy announcement!

George Haines is a college student, about to finish his last semester at Lancaster Bible College. He volunteered to work on this podcast under a misconception of what he would be doing, and has been our sound engineer since. Not only that, but through his involvement with the podcast, God provided his first opportunity for overseas missions. In this interview, he tells us about how God (and COVID) have changed his college experience, how the podcast misunderstanding provided a great opportunity, and how he has personally experienced God in some favorite moments - including a period of nightmares.
