  • #54: Temptation
    Jan 7 2025

    Temptation.

    We all face it every day. It looks different for each of us, but it rears its ugly head more times than we’d like to admit. How can we stand against it? Is it even possible to do resist when every ounce of our flesh yearns for something so intensely? Why is it so hard?

    In this episode, Mindi answers these questions and more as she walks through two examples of temptation in Scripture: the temptation of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, and the temptation of Jesus by Satan in the wilderness. These examples provide us with wealth beyond measure in understanding temptation and how to resist it. Listen to learn, be encouraged, and be strengthened to stand firm against the one whose only aim is to steal, kill, and destroy.

  • #53: Makaela Gibson - Healing, Hope, and the Hand of God
    Dec 31 2024

    When you're in the pit of despair, healing seems impossible and hope seems like a sick joke.

    But what if it's not?

    What if healing is possible and hope is real? What if your pain has a purpose and your mess is becoming a message? What if you're a part of someone else's story of healing...and hope? And what if God is orchestrating it all to draw out of darkness and into His light?

    Makaela walked through what seemed to be the depths of hell. But now she embodies hope and is experiencing true life for the first time in...perhaps ever. Getting to the other side took a lot of hard work, grit, and endurance, but as we all discover at some point, our endurance will gain us life (Luke 21:19). Friend, your life is worth living and your story is worth telling. Listen and let truth ignite hope in your heart and healing in your life.

  • #52: Who (or What) Does Your Heart Long For?
    Dec 24 2024

    What does your heart long for?

    What makes you giddy like a kid on Christmas morning? Or perhaps, what makes your heart ache from desperation?

    A man named Simeon longed for something over two thousand years ago, and his story is found in the gospel of Luke. Listen as Mindi navigates his narrative in Scripture and gleans some powerful truths that mark a heart longing for Jesus. We all orient our desires around something…let Christ be that Someone today and always.

  • #51: Follow the Light
    Dec 17 2024

    Who were the magi (wise men) who followed the star to Jesus? Why did they do it? And how is it relevant to us over 2,000 years later?

    In this episode, Mindi answers all these questions and more, debunks myths, and reveals several application points as she walks through the narrative of the magi in Luke 2. We can learn a lot from the wise men and their story of following the star, and also discern how we can follow the Light in our own lives! One of the best things Jesus does for us is to rescue us from darkness and usher us into His marvelous light. Listen to discover how we walk in the Light, and then how we can shine His Light to others!

  • #49: You're Not Alone
    Dec 3 2024

    It’s increasingly difficult to stand firm for Christ amidst a culture that’s decidedly anti-Christian. But there’s something harder: standing for Christ while surrounded by people who claim His name.

    It’s easy to feel alone. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed and want to give up. Elijah did. In fact, he even asked God to end his life on earth.

    But Elijah wasn’t alone, and neither are we. As long as we have breath, God has a purpose for our lives. Sometimes, that means speaking truth into a culture openly hostile to Christ. Other times, it means raising biblically-based concerns to fellow believers. It’s easy to feel alone, but we never are. Listen and be encouraged in this truth and others as Mindi shares her heart on this subject.

  • #48: Brink of Disaster
    Nov 26 2024

    We are all closer to the brink of disaster than we’d like to think about or believe. One decision (or one more bad decision) could send us over the edge where it may very well be impossible to resume the original trajectory of our lives.

    Fortunately, God gives us examples in Scripture - ones to aspire to and follow, and others to avoid like the plague. King Solomon is both. He experienced the highest of highs with Israel, but then died knowing that doom was on the horizon. And that it was his fault.

    Join Mindi in digging into Solomon’s life a bit. In this episode, she gleans some theological principles that we can use to avoid the brink of disaster in our own lives, and praises Jesus for equipping us with more than Solomon ever had to do just that.

  • #47: Why Christians Need to Fight
    Nov 19 2024

    The post-election dust is settling, and many are wondering, “What’s next?” For Christians, one answer is that we need to FIGHT. We need to keep fighting for truth and resisting evil in our culture and world. We don’t have the luxury of just floating along in some want-to-be Eden-like utopia where we coast down the river of naivety and apathy as we await our entrance to the Pearly Gates. We are soldiers in a battle, and we're fighting powers of evil. The the fight hasn’t (and never) changes because of elections.

    In this episode, Mindi walks through what the fight is, why we need to fight, and how we are to do so—all guided by Ephesians 6:10-17. She also previews (for the very first time!) a part of her latest children’s book. You don’t want to miss it!
