Unshaken

🎙️ Episode 27: We Weren’t Meant to Walk Alone: Finding Strength in Fellowship

Have you been carrying a heavy load quietly, and starting to believe you have to do it alone?

In Episode 27 of Unshaken, Tony and Kristy talk about community, not as a nice add-on, but as part of God’s design for your strength. After a marriage retreat that turned into an unexpected weekend of connection with old friends and new friends, they reflect on why fellowship matters, especially when disability is in the mix.

Isolation feels safer until you realize it is where the weight gets heavier.

They talk about the temptation to pull back when life is hard, and why that is often the moment you need people most. They walk through Scripture that calls us toward fellowship and burden-bearing, then name the relief that comes from being around people who just get it. They also talk about empathy vs sympathy, why silence can be holy, and how prayer for one another can feel like the most loving thing you can do. If you have been tired, lonely, or drifting toward isolation, this episode is an invitation to step back into the pack and let God meet you there.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why disability can increase isolation, and why that isolation becomes spiritually and emotionally risky
• The difference between sympathy and empathy, and why you need people who can climb into the pit with you
• Scripture anchors for community: Matthew 18:20, Hebrews 10:24–25, and Galatians 6:2
• How prayer for someone else pulls your focus outward and strengthens your own soul
• A practical next step: try a church, a small group, or a retreat and do not wait until you feel strong to go

In this episode of Unshaken, Tony and Kristy pause for a six month milestone to thank the community and share what God has been building behind the scenes. This episode is part celebration, part vision update, and part invitation to lean in with us as Unshaken keeps growing.

They unpack the five pillars of the Unshaken vision, what is coming next, and why this is about more than a podcast. Tony shares what unshakenpodcast.org is designed to do, moving listeners from consuming to engaging with downloads, episode pages, and ways to share topics. Kristy opens up about what she is creating in the media pillar, and why her fear and her calling are both part of the story. Then they name the big one, Unshaken Center, the vision God has put in Kristy’s heart with details that feel impossible and yet real. If you have been building something God gave you, this episode will steady you and remind you why it is worth going all in.

🎙️ Episode 25: When You Don’t Feel Enough: You’re Not God’s Plan B

Do you ever feel like everyone else is doing life better than you, and you are falling behind?

In this episode of Unshaken, Tony and Kristy talk honestly about those moments when you feel inadequate as a spouse, parent, leader, or believer. They name how comparison, social media snapshots, and unrealistic expectations can quietly convince you that you are not enough.

God did not build His plan around the person you wish you were.

🔵 Explore this episode: 
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/when-you-dont-feel-enough-youre-not-gods-plan-b/

They walk through real examples from their recent move, the weight of disability, and the pressure to live up to expectations that were never real to begin with. Then they anchor you in Scripture through Moses at the burning bush (Exodus 3–4) and Peter’s restoration after denial, reminding you that God’s presence and purpose are bigger than your weakness. Kristy puts words to something many of us feel: God does not look at you and scramble for a workaround. He made you on purpose, and His call is not a backup plan. If you have been feeling like you are failing, this episode will help you breathe again, turn down the noise, and come back to who you are in Christ.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why comparison is a trap: curated snapshots are not real life
• A fresh reframe from Moses: God’s call is not based on eloquence or strength (Exodus 3–4)
• You are not God’s Plan B: He made you intentionally and calls you as you are
• Peter’s restoration: Jesus meets moral failure with grace and purpose, not rejection
• Practical next steps: small prayers, reminders, community, and choosing availability over ability

🎙️ Episode 24: God in the Little Things: Finding His Kindness in Everyday Moments

Where have you seen God show up lately in a small, ordinary way that felt like it was just for you?

In this episode of Unshaken, Tony and Kristy talk about the small moments that quietly steady us when life feels heavy. From squirrels in a garden to a rainbow in a gray sky, this is a conversation about noticing God’s kindness in the ordinary and letting those moments reframe your whole day.

You do not have to fix everything today, you just have to notice that He is with you.

🔵 Explore this episode: 
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/god-in-the-little-things-finding-his-kindness-in-everyday-moments/

Kristy shares how stress can turn into a quick temper, then how God meets her with beauty at exactly the right moment. Tony shares a simple reminder that changed how he sees rainbows: “It’s going to be okay.” They talk about finding color in gray places, slowing down when you feel rushed, and how Scripture can surface at the right time to pull you back toward peace. If you’ve been tired, anxious, or running on fumes, this episode will help you lift your eyes and start connecting the dots of God’s presence again.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• How God uses small kindnesses to interrupt stress, anger, and overwhelm
• A simple reframe for the rainbow: God’s promise and the words, “It’s going to be okay.”
• Why “do not give the devil a foothold” (Ephesians 4:26–27) is a daily peace practice
• How to look for color when everything feels gray, and why perspective changes what you notice

🎙️ Episode 23: Just Do Something: Simple Ways to Start in Disability Ministry

Do you want to serve families affected by disability, but you feel overwhelmed and do not know where to start?

In this episode of Unshaken, Tony shares practical lessons from the last few years of building disability ministry in his community. This is for church leaders, volunteers, parents, and anyone who wants to do something real, but feels stuck in planning mode.

Progress starts the moment you do the next small thing.

🔵 Explore this episode: 
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/just-do-something-simple-ways-to-start-in-disability-ministry/

Tony walks through how this ministry began, why the goal is never perfection, and how to start where your community already is instead of reinventing the wheel. He talks about creating experiences that honor dignity, building with families in mind, and why authenticity will always beat polish. If you care about disability ministry but feel paralyzed by the size of the need, this episode will help you take a next step that actually matters.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why “just do something” is the best antidote to paralysis in planning
• How to find the needs in your area by searching what services already exist and starting there

🎙️ Episode 22: When Growth Hurts: Finding God’s Presence in the Ache of Change

Have you ever had something good happen, and still felt the sting of loss at the exact same time?

In this episode of Unshaken, Kristy shares a raw, honest reflection on the grief that can come with growth and change. This is a solo episode for the parent watching a child step into the next season, the leader leaving a team you love, and the person learning that God’s pruning can still hurt even when it’s for your good.

Growth can be a blessing and a bruise at the same time.

🔵 Explore this episode: 
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/when-growth-hurts-finding-gods-presence-in-the-ache-of-change/

Kristy talks about sending their daughter Eelyn to college, work and ministry transitions, and the bittersweet reality of being needed less as seasons shift. She names the tension we often feel guilty for: joy and sadness, gratitude and grief, hope and loss. Then she anchors that tension in Scripture, reminding you that God is present in the ache, shaping you through pruning (John 15:2), guiding you through seasons (Ecclesiastes 3), and doing a new thing even when it hurts (Isaiah 43:19). If change has been stirring up tears, this episode will help you name it, bring it to God, and step forward with courage.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why growth often requires leaving something familiar behind, and why that grief does not cancel gratitude
• How seasons shift (Ecclesiastes 3) and why mourning is part of wholeness, not failure
• What pruning means (John 15:2): loss can be evidence that the Gardener is close
• A hopeful promise for transition: “See, I am doing a new thing” (Isaiah 43:19)
• Practical ways to process change with God: prayer, journaling, gratitude, and blessing what’s ahead

🎙️ Episode 21: Midnight Lies: How to Fight at 2 A.M.

Are you awake right now because your mind will not stop and fear keeps grabbing momentum?

In this episode of Unshaken, Tony meets you in the middle of the night. This is for the night owl, the anxious mind, the parent listening on a smart speaker while the house is quiet, and the person who feels the spiritual pressure rise after midnight.

When the night gets loud, you do not panic, you stand firm.

🔵 For Deeper Study: 
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/midnight-lies-how-to-fight-at-2-a-m/

Tony walks through what spiritual warfare is and is not, then anchors you in Scripture that steadies the mind and guards the heart. If you have ever felt isolated at 2 a.m., convinced you have to solve everything before morning, or trapped in shame and worst-case scenarios, this episode names those lies and replaces them with truth. You are not alone in this. Peace is possible in the middle of the night, and Jesus is Lord here too.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
A grounded definition of spiritual warfare: contested thoughts, agreements, and atmosphere, not superstition
The anchor practice: take every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5) and submit to Christ
Philippians 4:6–7 as a 2 a.m. lifeline: prayer, thanksgiving, and peace that guards your mind
Five common midnight lies and the truth that replaces each one
Prayers you can speak out loud right now to reject lies and invite the peace of God into your home

🎙️ Episode 20: Who Is My Neighbor?: Loving the Person You’d Rather Avoid

If Jesus answered your “who is my neighbor?” question honestly, would you like the answer?

In this episode of Unshaken, Kristy and Tony talk about one of Jesus’ most uncomfortable teachings: loving your neighbor when your neighbor is the person you were hoping wouldn’t count. This is not a theory conversation. It’s about how we speak, how we react, and what our kids learn from us when we draw lines.

Your neighbor is whoever you were hoping Jesus wouldn’t say.

🔵 Explore this episode: 
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/who-is-my-neighbor-loving-the-person-youd-rather-avoid/

Kristy starts with a simple meme that convicted her, then they walk through the parable of the Good Samaritan and what it exposes in all of us. They talk about the defensive reactions that come out when someone looks at your family differently, mocks your faith, or just gets under your skin. And they name the spiritual bottom line: you cannot love God well while refusing to love the people God put in your path. If you’ve been carrying an “enemy list” in your heart, this episode is a gentle but firm call back to grace.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• The parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10) and what it reveals about who your neighbor really is
• Why our kids learn who to love by watching how we love, especially when we are frustrated or defensive
• Jesus’ command to love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you (Matthew 5:44)
• A hard check from 1 John 4:20: love for God cannot be separated from love for people
• Practical next steps: pause, pray, be kind on purpose, and ask God to help you see others through His eyes

🎙️ Episode 19: Small Victories Matter More Than You Think: 

What if the small win you almost dismissed is the exact thing God is using to build trust, momentum, and grace in you?

In this episode of Unshaken, Tony and Kristy talk about why celebrating small victories is not shallow. It’s strategic, spiritual, and often the difference between quitting and continuing. If you’ve been tired, discouraged, or stuck staring at the “blank screen” of a hard season, this one will help you take the next step.

Small is not insignificant. Small is sacred.

🔵 Explore this episode:  
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/small-victories-matter-more-than-you-think/

They unpack why God values beginnings, why micro-wins build real momentum, and why celebration is a spiritual discipline. They also name the three barriers that quietly steal joy: perfectionism, comparison, and exhaustion. This episode is for anyone who keeps seeing what’s left instead of what’s done. You don’t have to wait until the whole room is clean to thank God for one bag of progress.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why “small” does not mean insignificant and why God values beginnings (Zechariah 4:10)
• How small wins build trust, self-discipline, and momentum (Luke 16:10)
• Practical examples: one bag at a time, gratitude jars, victory journals, and even sticker charts for grownups
• The three joy-killers: perfectionism, comparison, and exhaustion, and why they all point to an absence of grace
• Why celebration is spiritual and how God finishes what He starts (Philippians 1:6)

🎙️ Episode 18: Overcoming Fear: How to Trust God When the World Feels Unsafe

What do you do when the world feels unsafe and your mind starts racing to the worst-case outcome?

In this episode of Unshaken, Tony and Kristy talk about fear, especially the kind that shows up when life changes, feels unfair, or you do not have all the information. This is a practical, scripture-rooted conversation for anyone who has felt unsteady, overwhelmed, or like the rug could be pulled out at any moment.

Fear comes fast, but you do not have to live there.

🔵 Explore this episode:  
https://unshakenpodcast.org/episodes/overcoming-fear-how-to-trust-god-when-the-world-feels-unsafe/

Kristy names the situations that trigger fear: change, unfairness, feeling unseen, and the paralysis that comes with overwhelm. Tony shares what fear looks like for him when he is missing information, and how quickly his brain jumps to the worst outcome. Together, they point back to a simple shift that changes everything: do not wait until the five-alarm fire. Go to God first, ask for peace, and let the Spirit steady you before you make the next decision. 

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why change can feel threatening, even when it is objectively good
• How fear grows in the information gap, and why clarity helps you move forward
• Why God’s command “do not fear” shows up again and again, and what it reveals about His heart
• 2 Timothy 1:7 as a foundation: power, love, and self-discipline instead of timidity
• A practical next step: pray first, then use the tools God gave you, including community and wise support (1 Thessalonians 5:16–24)
