Congrats to Linda from Sammamish who just won $7,350 plus $500 from Elite Roofing by guessing dropping game dice in a cup. We're so happy for you!

Brian MacMillan, Meteorologist for Fox 13, was at THE GAME when our Hawks punched their ticket to the CHAMPIONSHIP! Join Brian and Erica for a fun chat about what it felt like to be at Lumen Field and what's the forecast for Santa Clara in a couple of weeks? 🙂 Let's look ahead!

Some conversations just feel like a warm cup of coffee on a rainy Seattle morning, and TobyMac’s recent chat was exactly that. From gushing over the Pacific Northwest to sharing about family, faith, loss, and even his love for pickleball, he somehow made the deep stuff and the everyday stuff feel beautifully connected. It’s the kind of interview that leaves you smiling, nodding, and maybe even feeling a little more hopeful than before.

Erin Leham—author, podcaster, and newly converted winter fan—learned that Colorado winters are actually fun if you own snow pants. She talks birds (with a handy ID app), faith, and parenting—plus her book 936 Pennies, a clever reminder that kids grow up fast, so slow down, look outside, and enjoy God’s creation.

Erica sat down with Pastor Kobe from Canyon Hills Community Church, and their convo feels like one of those chats you have with a friend after church—honest, encouraging, and full of those “oh wow, I needed that” moments. Find out why serving isn’t just something we do at church, but something God uses to grow us, connect us, and remind us we’re part of something bigger than our busy schedules.

From finding joy in using your gifts to rediscovering the beauty of showing up on Sundays, click PLAY for a warm nudge back toward community, purpose, and the God who meets us when we step in and serve.

Brian Dickinson’s story reminds us that faith often shows up most clearly when everything else falls apart.

As he stood blind and alone on the summit of Everest, he leaned not just on his training but on a peace he’s convinced could only have come from God’s presence. His journey down the mountain—and through the aftermath—has become a testimony of resilience, purpose, and a faith that carried him when his own strength couldn’t.

Meet Brandon Inman, a Seattle kid who went from local theater to voicing young David. As a fellow “small guy,” he loves telling this giant-slaying story through animation, casually mentions working with George Clooney, cheers for the World Cup, and proudly reps Seattle the whole way.

Don't miss David in theatres now!

Rick Steves may be known for exploring the world, but his latest adventure is all about loving his own community well. In a beautiful act of generosity, he stepped in to save the Jean Kim Foundation’s Hygiene Center, ensuring hundreds of unhoused neighbors can continue accessing showers, laundry, and dignity. It’s a joyful reminder that compassion is powerful, practical, and something we can all take part in—right here at home.

The World Cup may be coming to Seattle, but so is something even bigger—an army of believers ready to love, serve, and pray their hearts out. Matt from Calvary Chapel South in Kent joined about 50 others for a prayer walk at Lumen Field, kicking off a massive outreach effort that hopes to unite 10,000 churches and reach a million people with the gospel. It’s bold, it’s joyful, and it’s a beautiful picture of what happens when the Church shows up together with open hands and expectant faith.

Portugal wasn’t just a vacation for Ty and his family—it was the kind of trip that sneaks up on you after a catchy commercial and ends up changing your whole outlook on the world. What started as a surprise getaway (his daughter was convinced they were headed to the Oregon coast) quickly turned into a whirlwind of castles in Sintra, centuries‑old Lisbon architecture, and seafood so fresh it practically told its own story.

Along the way, they met some of the friendliest people imaginable and even picked up a few Portuguese phrases to prove it. From jaw‑dropping landmarks like the Tower of Belém to the ease of planning with Colette Travel, every moment felt like a discovery. And for Ty’s daughter, it became more than a trip—it became a whole new way of seeing the world.
