  • 69 | Bitterness, Anger & Truth: A Heart Check in Chaotic Times
    Jan 26 2026

    With everything happening in Minnesota around ICE and immigration enforcement, emotions are high and the noise is loud.

    This episode is not about choosing sides or sharing political opinions. It’s a heart check for Christians. We talk about guarding our hearts, resisting bitterness, and staying anchored in Jesus during times of division, fear, anger, and unrest.

    Using Hebrews 12:15 and Philippians 4:8, I share:

    • why stepping back from the chaos does not mean you don’t care
    • how constant exposure to outrage can quietly change your heart
    • why staying connected to God first is the only way we bring peace into broken situations

  • 68 | Shut Up: 3 Tips For Taming Your Tongue
    Jan 16 2026

    Many of us are stuck in patterns of complaining, careless talk, and constant venting when life feels heavy. Scripture is clear that our words carry weight and that what comes out of our mouth shapes our reality and relationships.

    We look at what the Bible says about controlling our words and offers practical ways to tame our tongue.

    We'll chat about:

    • Why talking too much can actually lead you into sin.
    • How to slow down and measure your words before you say them.
    • A simple biblical prayer to guard your mouth.

    This episode is an invitation to pay attention to the “song” coming out of your mouth and let God help you change the chorus.

  • 67 | Go Ahead And Quit: Why Giving Up Might Be The Right Move
    Jan 9 2026

    Somewhere along the way, the belief became QUITTING = FAILURE. But what if it's actually the opposite?

    If you’ve been exhausted, scattered, or afraid that stopping means falling apart, this episode gives you permission to see quitting as surrender...and the beginning of a very real trust in a very good God.

    Let's chat about:

    • How being unable to stay present leaves us scattered and overwhelmed
    • Why slowing down feels scary when we don’t trust God to handle what we release
    • What happens when you quit managing everything and allow God to step in

  • 66 | Honesty, Friendship, & Forgiveness: Real Marriage Talk (with Chris Hirdler)
    Jan 2 2026

    My husband Chris joins me for a very real, very unfiltered conversation about honesty, forgiveness, and what it actually looks like to support each other when marriage gets heavy. We’ve been divorced and remarried, and we’ve learned the hard way how quickly silence and resentment can do damage if you don’t name what’s going on.

    A big part of this conversation is about intimacy and friendship — how staying emotionally connected, feeling safe with each other, and remembering you’re on the same team matters just as much as fixing problems.

    It’s us talking through the stuff most couples avoid. We tackle:

    • What honesty looks like when it’s uncomfortable but necessary
    • How old wounds and unforgiveness sneak into everyday reactions
    • The ways spouses tear each other down without realizing it
    • What real support looks like when communication starts breaking down

    Listen to our full story!

  • 65 | Hope: Encouragement in the Dark Times
    Dec 27 2025

    Ten years ago, Christmas was a disaster. Broken families, anger, hurt, and walking away from people I loved. This Christmas looks completely different, not because time heals all wounds, but because God went to work.

    This episode is a Christmas reflection on hope that takes time. The kind that doesn’t come how you expect and doesn’t always look like change right away.

    But one moment, one breath of God, can still change everything.

    Let’s talk about:

    • How God can restore what looks completely broken, even after years
    • What the long silence before Jesus came teaches us about waiting
    • Why hope can be real before anything actually looks fixed

  • 64 | Why Is God Silent? 3 Truths For When You Can't Hear His Voice
    Dec 19 2025

    There are seasons when God feels quiet. You’re praying, asking for direction, and trying to do the right thing, but nothing feels clear. No new word. No next step. Just silence.

    In this episode, we talk about why God’s quiet seasons aren’t something to fear. Silence doesn’t mean He’s gone, disappointed, or ignoring you. Often, it’s an invitation to trust Him more deeply.

    In this episode, we talk about:

    • Why God’s silence isn’t a sign that you’ve done something wrong
    • Three reasons God may feel quiet and how trust and obedience fit in
    • What Scripture shows us about why quiet often comes before something new

    If you’re longing for clarity, reassurance, or a sense of what’s next, this episode is a reminder that God is still working even when He isn’t speaking out loud.

  • 63 | Finding Peace in the Christmas Chaos: It's A Soul Condition
    Dec 12 2025

    This season is full. Not just calendars, but pressure, expectations, noise, and MINDS!

    This episode is about why Christmas can feel overwhelming even when it’s good, and why peace doesn’t come from getting through it or doing it better. The chaos isn’t just around you. It’s what happens when the soul is distracted and stretched thin.

    We look at the night Jesus was born and the story of Mary and Martha to learn how distraction affects relationships, why stillness matters, and where peace is actually formed.

    Let's chat about:

    • Why the season itself isn’t the real problem
    • What a distracted soul looks like in real life
    • How stillness with Jesus recenters everything

    This is about learning how to carry peace into the middle of life instead of waiting for things to calm down first.

  • 62 | The Truth About Witchcraft: My Story of Black Magic & the Demonic
    Dec 5 2025

    Witchcraft shows up in surprising ways, often through practices that seem harmless or spiritual. In this episode, I’m sharing a part of my story I rarely talk about, offering a firsthand look at what demonic and occult practices actually invite, why those open doors matter, and what the Bible really says about witchcraft.

    In this episode we talk about:

    • the trends that sneak into Christian life today
    • how practices like crystals, horoscopes, tarot, sigils, and “manifesting” played out in my own story
    • what happened in my home, my health, and my family when those spiritual doors opened

    Come chat about spiritual openings, hidden dangers, and the hope God offers to every one of us.
