The Comeback Couch

Rachel Faulkner Brown is no stranger to tragedy, living life as a widow who has lost two husbands. 

But from her grief and heartbreak, she sought God and partnered with Him to build a ministry to serve other widows and equip them to keep going. Never Alone Widows creates resources and hosts conferences to guide widows after loss and remind them that life can still be beautiful.

This conversation with Rachel is warm, inviting, convicting, and encouraging. Life won’t be easy, but God gives us the strength to keep moving and keep growing His Kingdom.

The Comeback Couch is finally back for a new season with a very special guest. Jonathan Bailey created The Dwell Bible App alongside his brother with hopes of helping people access God’s Word more frequently and with less obstacles.

He has now written a book, “Dwelling in Christ: Discover the Threefold Path of Spiritual Transformation.” You can order it here 

It took him 10 years to write the book, and we talk about why he didn’t quit, how he didn’t quit, and what happened because he didn’t quit. We go deep into spiritual transformation and what it looks like to actually be changed by God rather than simply checking boxes.

If you are desperate for a deeper connection with God, this conversation with enlighten and encourage you.

If you’re anything like me, reading the Bible in a year, can become a challenge. Life gets busy, and it’s easy to fall behind. That’s why I am so excited to share about the audio Bible app: Dwell. It makes getting through the Bible doable - by listening to Scripture! With Dwell, you don't have to wait for the perfect moment to sit down and read …  Scripture becomes a natural part of your day - listening on a morning walk, during a commute, or while cooking dinner has changed the time I spend in the Word. I find myself listening all throughout my days! 

Plus, Dwell has created amazing Bible-in-a-Year plans that you can listen to too! This year, I'm so excited to listen along to The Bible Recap with Tara-Leigh Cobble. This plan goes through the Bible chronologically and offers insightful, daily recaps from Tara-Leigh to deepen your understanding. 

Remember, listening to the Bible in a year isn’t about getting through God’s word; it’s about letting God’s word get through you. It’s about dwelling on it, and letting it shape your heart and mind. So, if you’re ready to journey through the Bible in 2026, start today at https://get.dwellbible.com/comeback/?utm_campaign=sponsorships&utm_content=&utm_medium=podcast&utm_source=comeback&utm_term=

Kaitlin and Payton waste no time jumping right in and talking about what it’s really like working in news. After talking about stories they’ve covered, they share how it feels to wonder if you have your own testimony that God can use. 

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t have a story, tune in to see how God applies Revelation 12:11 to everyone’s life in a unique way. 

You can watch Payton on Tennessee Valley Living every day on WAFF 48 News. And you’ll see Kaitlin make a guest appearance once a month for her segment, Candid with Kaitlin!

If you have followed me on social media for long, you have heard me rave about Antique Candle Company. I started using their candles a few years ago and when I tell you I was immediately hooked… I love candles but I do not love the headaches that most candles give me. Enter Antique Candle Company. Their candles are 100% soy wax and paraffin free and somehow still smell absolutely incredible. Every single time someone comes to my house, they ask me what the smell is and it’s always Antique Candle Company. Their scent Mamma’s Kitchen may be the actual best candle I have ever smelled. And I have been burning the fall scent Cinnamon Apple Crisp since June so I could at least smell fall in my house while it felt like 108 degrees outside in Alabama. You have to try these candles and when you do, you can use code COMEBACK20 for 20% off! The code won’t work during any of their major sales but will work on any order any other time. I have a cabinet full of these babies I keep on hand for birthday gifts, teacher gifts, and Christmas presents. They also make the perfect addition in little just-because gifts for friends! Go to antiquecandleco.com to grab yours and follow them on Instagram at @antiquecandleco.

Kaitlin talks with Toni about her public divorce from a well-known pastor and what she experienced within The Church throughout the challenging past few years. 

Toni talks about wanting to seek revenge on her own but how her community of like-minded people has helped her navigate the betrayal in a God-honoring way, leaving any revenge to Him. 

Toni is an electric, on-fire-for-Jesus author, podcaster, preacher, mom, and business owner. She doesn’t shy away from the difficult topics and her authenticity will leave you wanting to share your own story and seek Jesus even more.
