As we take a deep dive into Genesis 3, we see how Satan charms us to give him access to our lives. And although our disobedience results in consequences far out of our control. God has made a way for us to be redeemed through His Son, Jesus.
If you'd like to participate in the Bible study that goes along with these episodes you can download this week's notes here:
Eve: Charm'd by Forbidden Fruit
During this 6 part series of podcasts, we are going to discover that the world has absolutely nothing that can even begin to compare with what God has for us. By studying the examples of women in the Bible we will learn to recognize the deceptive “charms” that the devil dangles in front of us and then develop spiritual disciplines that will enable us to hold out for God’s best.
My prayer is that we will take action steps that will trigger a change in our cravings. And rather than be driven by the desires of the flesh, we will learn to be satisfied with the wisdom, power, love and plans of God.
Then, as we exchange the counterfeit for what is real…we will add insult to injury as we battle against Satan’s attacks and take the very things that he charm’d us with—and allow God to redeem those things so that they become opportunities for our lives to SHINE for others.

In this episode Leighann shares some "behind the scenes" reflections on her (and her husband Tom's) recent transition out of 35 years as senior pastor and wife at Thompson Station Church. Learn about her exciting new ministry adventure at Hope4America.us and hear about Charm'd, the new series coming up on the Leighann McCoy podcast.
Leighann never set out to learn so much about deconstruction but when her own daughter began the tumultuous journey, she was motivated to dig deep in hopes of reconnecting with her. On this episode (that completes our series on deconstruction), Leighann's daughter, Selah Standish share her candid response to Leighann's previous 3 episodes.
Selah and Leighann are starting a new podcast together where they will go much deeper into this conversation. The are calling their new podcast, Love works! HARD!! Stay tuned for the premier of this podcast soon.
The book Leighann mentions in this podcast is The Great Dechurching, Who's leaving, Why are They Going? and What Will It Take to Bring Them Back?
In this final episode of the 3-part series where Leighann discusses deconstruction, she shares how loving a person who's deconstructing their faith affects you. This episode is for the parent, friend, sibling, spouse or other person who used to share the Christian faith with someone who is deconstructing their faith.
Books mentioned are: A Visual Guide to the Bible: Seeing and Knowing God’s Word by Tim Challies and Josh Byers
I know we can't really even begin to get inside the mind and heart of another person, especially one that we disagree with--but, with enough research we can gain insight into what they might be thinking and feeling. In this episode Leighann shares what might be going on inside the people you love who are deconstructing their faith.
This is part 2 of our 3 part series on deconstruction. As a reminder, I postponed the publishing of this series until now (February rather than November). As it turns out, this series is a great segway into the exciting new podcast my daughter Kaleigh/Selah and I are doing together called "Love works. (HARD)" She and I are preparing to launch this new podcast together where we will share what we've learned throughout the tumultuous journey her deconstruction has taken us on. That's not all we're going to talk about, but it is going to be our starting point.
If you know people who are in the deconstruction process, and/or parents and other family members they are leaving in their wake please share these episodes with them and invite them to join us when we launch our new podcast, "Love works! (HARD)."
In this episode Leighann shares 5 cultural realities that impact deconstruction; then tells you the two reasons people choose to deconstruct their faith; and what we can do in response to them. This episode isn't for the person deconstructing their faith but rather for the person who loves them. This is part 1 of a 3 part series.
We wrap up our conversation with Mikel and Kaleigh in this episode. The girls give pastors and their wives some great advice and encouragement and then they share what they would tell their younger selves and what they want to say to other PKs. We had such a good time recording these episodes that we will probably have some more conversations in the future. ENJOY!
In this episode Mikel and Kaleigh give ministry parents advice on how to create safe space for their children to process and develop their own faith in the messy middle of the ministry home.
In this episode Mikel and Kaleigh continue sharing their experiences of growing up in the ministry. Their honest reflections present a challenge to the church. Let's take Jesus' words to heart when He exhorted us to love each other well, don't forget that He said the world would know we are His disciples by how we love one another.
