      • The Fortitude Podcast - Dr. Amanda McNeil on Navigating Grief with God...personally, if we're supporting a grieving friend, and everything in between | Ep.52

        Dr. Amanda McNeil is is not only one of our personal counselors who has helped us build a marriage we are excited about, but she a doctor of Psychology and Theology as well as having her own personal story of deep loss and grief. She recently released a book called "Overcoming the Overcast: Navigating the Storms of Grief with God", in which she combines groundbreaking neuroscience and deep biblical insight to help with navigating loss while holding both profound pain and true hope.


        In this conversation we get into how our view of God's character can LITERALLY rewire our brain and how that then translates to how we process loss. We discuss healthy ways of navigating personal loss as well as what can be truly helpful if we are supporting a grieving friend. Whether you're familiar with grief or not, this is a do not miss episode!

Joshua shares how his calling—to see the Kingdom of God come on earth—shapes his approach to work, rest, and relationships. Drawing from his transformative experiences living in the Middle East, he unpacks the power of community, the challenges of reverse culture shock, and what it means to live with intentionality.

        • Living in the Middle East fostered deep friendships and cross-cultural insight.

      • The Paula Faris Show - What American Food is Doing To Us And Our Kids, Plus Easy Swaps with Dr Josh Axe

        When it comes to what’s in our American food system, it can be difficult to know WHO to believe and WHERE to start. Honestly, the process is incredibly overwhelming and can be pricey. 


        But here’s the reality:


        ➡️ 60-90% of our foods are ultra-processed

        ➡️ Our pre-teens are seeing dramatic increases in pre-diabetes 

        ➡️This young generation is the first generation that isn’t expected to outlive the previous generation. 

        ➡️Many of the food dyes in our food are banned in almost every other country 


        While food is just ONE component of what’s happening in this conversation,  I wanted to dive deeper into the subject of what’s truly in the American food system–from food dyes, to pesticides and a ton of different additives. 


        Dr Josh Axe tells us what American food is doing to us and our kids, plus some easy steps we can take in our journey towards awareness and eating better. 



        Let’s Talk About It. 



        Listen in to learn more: 

        (01:05) Healthy Eating Made Easy 

        (05:49) Impact of Junk Food on Performance 

        (12:57) Impact of Food Dyes on Health 

        (18:33) Pharmaceutical Marketing Prioritizes Money 

        (25:14) Family Health and Positive Swaps 

        (32:25) The Effects of Contaminated Water 

        (40:35) Cost-Effective, Tasty, Fresh Food Storage 



        In this episode, we are diving into the movement to clean up the American food system, dangers related to herbicides and pesticides, the most concerning additives in our food, where to start with making better food choices, advice for saving money on healthy food, the importance of water filtration, and a simple way to improve the food and products you are buying.

          • That Sounds Fun with Annie F. Downs - Revivals, Prayer Meetings, and Making Disciples with Jon Tyson- Episode 973

            Today on the show, we’re answering the question, “How do we identify when spring is here?” with Pastor Jon Tyson.

            Jon is the pastor of Church of the City in New York and a best selling author. We’re going to talk about identifying spring, revival and resurrection, and what role we play in all of it. 

            This is also our last episode before Holy Week and Easter, since we don’t release episodes during Holy Week, so we also talk about ways to enter into this next week as we finish Lent and celebrate the resurrection. 

            And if you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 45. As always, if you still want to get a Guidebook and join us, you can find it at anniefdowns.com/seasons. 

            As you know, we don’t release shows during Holy Week, but we do have an entire Holy Week playlist that you can go back and listen to where I read the Scripture from each day of that week leading up to Easter.

          • We're Going There with Bianca Juarez - Ep 185: Another Year Older, Another Year… Not Knowing Everything with Bianca Juarez

            It's my birthday! And to make it special, I wanted to share what's actually been going on in my heart. It's been a journey of realizing, like, really realizing, some big things about my relationship with God. 


            Have you ever had a teaching moment completely flipped upside down? I’ve got a story for you! I was all set to teach on Luke 11, feeling pretty confident, and then BOOM! Lisa Harper drops a truth bomb that totally flipped my perspective. I.Got.Schooled. In the best possible way.

            I talk about this and so much more in this episode. I’m also sharing about:

            • Turns Out, I Don't Know It All: The biggest surprise? Realizing how much I don't know. Age doesn't magically equal wisdom, y'all!
            • What's This "Orphan Spirit" Thing?: Ever felt abandoned, alone, or like you're not good enough? That might be an "orphan spirit" talking. It's when we look for validation and provision everywhere but from God.
            • Hello, Sonship/Daughtership!: Claiming my identity as God's child? Game changer. It's about knowing I belong, and you do too!
            • Chatting with God, Like, For Real: I'm learning to be totally honest with God. The good, the bad, the ugly—all of it.
            • The Perks of Being a Child of God: Freedom from fear? Confidence? Boldness? Yes, please! That's what comes with knowing who I am in Him.
            • And Yes, There Will Be Sourdough: Click here for my sourdough recipe. Because, priorities!


              I do have this one Birthday Wish: Would you guys pray for me as I write my new book on wholeness? I really want to walk in my identity as God’s chosen child and sometimes, well, it’s tough. 


              Let's keep the conversation going! What resonates with you? I'd love to hear your thoughts. You can tag me on social media @biancajuarezofficial.

            • What If I'm Wrong? - What If You're Wrong About Your Purpose?

              Welcome back to What If I’m Wrong? A show where we might not give you the answers, but we will ask some really good questions. 


              This month, we’re exploring the topic of passion—what are you so passionate about that you are willing to suffer for? And this week we are asking: What if you’re wrong about your purpose?

              What if everything you’ve believed about your purpose turns out to be a misconception? How do you cope when your sense of purpose shifts or crumbles, and what can it teach you about yourself moving forward?


              Join host Heather Thompson Day and submission specialist Haley as they dive into a thought-provoking discussion about purpose.


              In Day in the Bible, Heather explores that Luke, a physician, wrote 27% of the New Testament, focusing on Jesus' healing ministry. She challenges us to reconsider our purpose, noting that God often calls unlikely people to do His work. Whether you're a nurse, teacher, or in another field, Heather asks, "What if you're wrong about your purpose?" urging us to be open to God's call, even if we don't feel equipped.
