021 i don't want my children to grow up idolizing marriage ft. Delite L

There are so many different definitions of purity, sexual purity, purity culture, etc among believers today. But what does walking in purity actually look like? Some people hear growing up, just don't have sex until marriage, and that's it. What about those who are in prolonged seasons of singleness, what does their walk look like? What is purity supposed to look like after marriage, does walking it out stop after the alter? Today's episode just scratches the surfaces of the conversation of purity, specifically sexual purity, that can be had. And these are conversations that we need to be having with trusted and wise friends and mentors among believers, because no one is walking this out alone.

020 i would choose Noah again and again ft. Nichole M

A dear friend Nichole M came on the podcast for today's interview. While Nichole's story is not an easy one to share, she talks openly and honestly with us in today's episode, and for that we are so thankful. Nichole shares the story of her baby Noah, who doctors deemed early on as a "lethal pregnancy." Nichole shares her family's story of fighting for life and hope throughout Noah's pregnancy, the ups and downs of the journey, battling loss and grief, and more on today's episode. We pray Nichole's boldness in sharing allows others who may be going through or have gone through similar situations, to know they are not alone and have a voice.

019 the heart behind the hands ft. Heather

In today's episode Meghan is joined by Heather Puddington, sister, friend, nurse and servant of Christ.

017 faith confirmed

In today's episode Meg shares about something the Lord has been teaching her about the confirmation of faith, as is told in the story in Genesis 22 of Abraham preparing to sacrifice his son Isaac as the Lord asked of him, only for the Lord to provide a sacrifice in his place. We talk about developing a faith that stands under tribulation and the perspective to see how this purification actually leads us to be a bride that is ready for the bridegroom, being Christ.

016 hope as an anchor for the soul

Is it REALLY possible to have hope be the anchor for your soul? Firm, secure, sure?! Isn't that what we all want?! Sally gives some deep wisdom on this topic as she reflects processing over the last little while and a book that she recommends to us. She breaks down casual hope verses precious hope verses ultimate hope, and what this actually looks like as we actively walk out our lives and faith with the Lord. This is a MUST listen!
