- Infertility with Gina Allen Episode 53No one likes waiting. Especially when we don’t know when the waiting will end. Proverbs 13:12 says that hope deferred makes the heart sick. And while that is true, it is also true that it is often during the waiting period where we grow the most and come closer to God. Especially when what we’re waiting on is the blessing of having children.
In today’s episode I’ll be talking with elementary teacher and snack entrepreneur, Gina Allen. She’ll share how she leaned on God during a grueling season of infertility.
Listen and be encouraged!

33 min - Breaking the Chains of Fear and Shame with Misti Guerrero Episode 52Shame is such a crippling emotion. It makes us feel small and unworthy-disqualified. It's easy to get wrapped up in those chains of failure and doom.

In today's episode, Misti Guerrero, shares how God broke those chains for her while dealing with an unplanned pregnancy and the possibility of raising a child as a single parent.

1 hr 24 min - Digging Deep and Growing Roots with Deano Casola Episode 51If a tree is poorly rooted or doesn’t have deep roots it is easily knocked over during a storm. Christians are no different.
But how does someone become rooted? Where do they start?
In today’s episode, I have Deano Casola tell us where to dig, so that we too can be rooted in God and not so easily knocked down during life’s storms.

This is what Adriane White faced when her newborn daughter suddenly became sick in the middle of the night. Listen on and learn how she was able to let go and lean into Jesus.

35 min - Where are You Going? with Wes Coleman Episode 46It's Summer time, which means graduations and vacation trips galore! All that most people keep asking is "Where are you going?" or "What's next?"
Very natural questions to ask, but what if we applied this question spiritually?
Do you know where your going...after this life? Is there an after-life? How can we know? And if there is, what does that mean for you today?
I sat down with Young Adult Pastor, Wes Coleman, from McClendon Baptist Church to discuss just that.
Man, life is short-we know that...but let's make sure we're making the "dash" count. So listen on and be encouraged!
