Jesus loved to use stories to communicate Biblical truth, and I think that’s one of the reasons I love Christian historical fiction authors so much. We can learn about God and ourselves through the stories they create. We can be transported to different times and different places, and we can see ourselves and God’s redemptive plan across time. My guest today, Ann Gabhart, is a best-selling author who has been creating memorable stories for over twenty years, and her latest book, The Song of Sourwood Mountain, takes us to the dawn of the twentieth century in Eastern Kentucky with the story of Mira. Her story reminds us all of the unexpected blessings that can come when we dare to give up control of our lives to God. Lean in and listen as we get to know Ann Gabhart and the heart of her latest book.

Legacy Changer
Do you feel stuck in cycles of brokenness? Many of us unknowingly repeat the mistakes of our parents and grandparents, passing on pain and suffering. My guest today, Kristen Hallinan, reminds us that no matter what has happened in the past or what mess you might be in today, you are not destined to carry on your family’s wounds, unhealthy behaviors, or toxic relationships. It doesn’t have to be this way. Your legacy can be different, and the change starts with you. Lean in and listen as we dive into this great conversation.

Life Is Messy, God Is Good
Each day we are given the opportunity to live with meaning and significance as we acknowledge our struggles and then surrender them to Jesus. My guest today, Cynthia Yanof, knows how sloppy, slippery, and downright hard life can be. But as she reminds us, God’s not surprised when we drop the ball, lose our cool, or struggle to put our Spanx on in the morning. He can use our ridiculous messes and even the really difficult I-didn’t-sign-up-for-this losses to shape us. Lean in and listen as we dive into this great conversation.

When you’re stuck in a season of waiting, it often hurts too much to hope, and my guest today draws upon her own experiences of heartache to encourage us all to embrace the tension of our unmet longings.

I have loved to read for as long as I can remember. I mean who else but an avid reader would choose “Marmee” from Little Women as her grandma name? The Significant Women podcast has allowed me to meet so many of my favorite authors, and today is no exception. I can’t wait for you to meet Suzanne Woods Fisher, the award-winning, bestselling author of more than 40 books, including The Cape Cod Creamery series, as well as many beloved clean contemporary romance novels.

The Significant Women podcast is full of personal stories, dynamic hope, and sage wisdom from women who have gleaned all that they can from the ordinary days of an uncommon life. They aren’t significant because of their fame or success…they are significant because Jesus is in the details of their lives.

As children, many of us are burdened with labels such as "shy," "quiet," "awkward," or simply "different." These descriptors, casually assigned by others or even self-imposed, confine us to the sidelines, rendering our voices faint and our presence unnoticed. My guest today is Cally Logan who is here to remind you that, just like The Wallflower that Bloomed, you too can break free from the shadows and bloom beautifully, embracing your truest self.

Trauma and triggers have become buzz words in recent years and they are sometimes used to describe something that makes us uncomfortable, something that is somewhat cringe-worthy, or even something that’s just a generally negative experience. But something that is truly traumatic is something that rewires your brain and moving forward, your instincts and your outlook are altered as a result of it. Regardless of your upbringing, socio-economic status, education, family background, or religious beliefs, we have all experienced trauma. It creeps and seeps into our lives, affecting our outlook, relationships, priorities, and choices.
My guests today are mother/daughter duo Sarah & Isabel Bowling, and their new book, “Road to Wholeness: Healing from Trauma,” is a unique look at the parable of the Good Samaritan through the lens of trauma. It will give you insight for healing from the trauma of your own story, as well as how to love and interact with others’ as they navigate their own journey of healing. Thankfully, Jesus can help us to transform trauma so it isn’t transferred, causing ripple effects of damage and hurt.

Many people long to find greater fulfillment in life but don’t know how to move from beyond their current circumstances to their God-ordained calling. Without faith and direction, fear and uncertainty can hold us back from surrendering our desires, and fully trusting God to live boldly in His calling for our lives. My guest today is Bible teacher, podcaster, and mentor Rachel G. Scott who’s going to share with us the five types of leaps we all have to take to propel ourselves into fulfilling God’s destiny for us. I highly encourage you to grab her latest book “Taking the 5 Leaps” on Amazon (https://amzn.to/4b36tCu) or wherever great books are sold.
