Ever feel that tug-of-war between wanting to open your home and also just wanting a quiet, clean space? Us too. Summer has this way of stirring things up — kids are out of school, the backyard suddenly becomes the neighborhood hotspot, and somehow your house turns into the unofficial sleepover headquarters. So how do we prepare our homes and hearts for hospitality? In this episode, we’re taking an honest look at the mess and the ministry of hospitality. We’re sharing five simple things that h...
When is the last time you have invited someone into your home to sit down and dive into the parts of life that go deeper than everyday conversation? If this isn’t something that you do, or have done recently, what’s holding you back? Is it space? Is it clutter? Is it fear of what people might see when you let your walls down? For me, at one point or another it’s been all of those things, and I know I’m not alone in that. That’s why I’m so excited to share today’s conversation with Victoria Du...
What if paying off debt didn’t mean putting life on hold? This month we knocked out some debt, paid off a line of credit, and finally feel the snowball rolling. It’s gonna take a few years—and that's okay. We’re in it for the long haul without putting life on hold. Instead of extreme cuts that leave us burned out, we're learning to be intentional: letting the kids play sports (no $6 concession stand nachos for us), fixing up the backyard, and choosing joy where we can. Funny thing—getting ser...
What if the hardest moments of motherhood weren’t something to escape—but a holy invitation? In this episode, we sit down with Whitney Newby, the heart behind Brighter Day Press, who opens up about the messy, beautiful collision of motherhood and faith. A former nurse turned homeschooling mama of four, Whitney shares how an early, overwhelming moment with her newborn led her to a deep realization: her own love and strength would never be enough—but God’s grace would be.

Remember when eye contact, please-and-thank-you, and real conversations were just... normal? These days, it feels like we’re raising kids in a world that’s slowly forgetting how to be human. We see it everywhere—from the cashier who barely looks up, to parents missing “watch me!” moments at the playground because they're glued to their phones. It’s not just about manners—it’s about teaching our kids how to truly connect. The good news? It doesn’t take much to turn the tide. Let your kid order...
What if the struggle you're avoiding is the very thing meant to make you stronger? Across the pages of the Bible, scripture doesn’t shy away from suffering. Instead, it calls us to embrace it, learn from it, and find joy in the middle of it. Because maybe pain isn’t punishment—it’s preparation. Jesus didn’t promise a trouble-free life. He promised victory through the struggle. And when He said, “Take up your cross and follow me,” he wasn’t inviting us to a life of ease. He was inviting us to ...
What are you doing with your tax refund this year? In this episode, we’re getting real about our financial journey—how small, consistent habits have helped us make meaningful progress in paying down debt.

We also talk about the curveball we got during tax season when our refund didn’t come through as expected, reminding us ...
Be honest… Do you pee in the shower? Or are you now questioning every shared shower you’ve ever stepped foot in?

But that’s just the beginning. We’re also talking about the unexpected yet powerful Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll collab on Hard Fought Hallelujah—why it matters, how it’s pushing Christians outside their com...
What would happen if we stopped seeing foster care as someone else’s problem? Right now, there are nearly 400,000 children in the foster care system, and behind each number is a real child, a real family, a real story. In this episode, we’re sharing a bit about our own journey into foster care—what led us to say “yes” when so many step back, and why the fight for families is more urgent than ever. We dig into the hard truths about why families are struggling, the ripple effects on communities...
How would you define your relationship with money in your marriage—a seamless partnership, a constant tug-of-war, or something you avoid talking about altogether? In this episode, we’re getting real about marriage and money—because if there’s one thing that can test a relationship, it’s finances. We’re pulling back the curtain on our own experiences, sharing the lessons we’ve learned (sometimes the hard way) about handling bank accounts, tackling debt, and navigating different spending styles...
Do you have a friend you can be completely real with, no masks, no pretending—just you? This episode is all about the power of deep, intentional relationships—whether in marriage, friendship, or community. We talk about what it means to truly show up for one another, the messy beauty of loving people well, and how Christ-centered connections can change everything. Inspired by Bonhoeffer’s wisdom on agape love, we dig into why choosing love daily—especially when it’s hard—is what builds the ki...

And since iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17), we’re talking about the power of community and how the ...

What do car payments, surprise home repairs, and clashing love languages have in common? They’ve all put our marriage to the test—and taught us some unforgettable lessons. In this episode, we’re spilling the tea (and maybe a few tears) about the current state of our consumer debt. From auto loans that have stretched our budget to gut-punch experiences like unexpected mold remediation, we’re diving into the realities of budgeting, debt, and finding financial harmony in marriage. We’ll share wh...
How do you discern the voice of God when life feels overwhelming? In today’s episode, we’re cutting through the noise to expose the lies of the enemy and uncover the truth about the spiritual battlefield we all face.
