A business can be your dream, your plan to provide, and the place you expect God to “bless” in obvious ways, until it doesn’t work. We sit down with Annie Ward to talk about what happens when you do the right things, pray, spend the money, put in the work, and the business still closes. Instead of …
A tire shop bench and a few words of Spanish turn into a friendship that feels planned, and from there the conversation goes straight into the kind of faith questions most of us carry quietly: How do you know God is leading you? Why does obedience sometimes land you in a harder place? Hannah Croft,…

I’m joined by my granddaughter Peyton and our social media teammate Victoria for an honest, faith-filled conversation about what it looks …

We’re talking about godly friendship and the surprising way God orchestrates relationships that bless us, steady us, and help us become brave again. From a tiny house on wheels to an …
Six sand dollars on a quiet walk became the turning point Alejandra Aguilar needed when fear was loud and the next step felt impossible. She joined me to tell the story of becoming a full-time caregiver after her dad’s stroke, while raising two boys as a single mom and helping her mom as dementia b…
A headstone in an old San Antonio cemetery stopped Donna Lint-Russell in her tracks, and it never really let her go. Years later, that single epitaph collides with a 3 am wake-up, a Max Lucado book, and a painting she could not finish because the woman had no face. We talk with Donna about what it …
