You Can, Because God with Laura Smith
32:53 | 09-24-2025
If you are like us, often you can feel defeated, overwhelmed and overcome. We believe, that one of the sweetest things about following Jesus is that in these moments, we are brought to our knees accepting who we are, and praising God for who He is. But how do we become women and a community of believers that can remember that and have that posture in these moments? Join us and our new friend, Laura Smith and we dive into the truths of her new book and how we can be brave in Christ.

What Are We Really Aiming For?
27:57 | 09-17-2025
We are all juggling many things- relationships, healthy living, friendships, marriages, raising kids, succeeding at a job, taking care of a home and abounding other responsibilities. In most of these areas of life we set goals we want to achieve. We make a plan & we work towards that goal. But what is the goal of the Christian life? What are we really aiming for? Join Christian and Samantha as they discuss just that and how we stay focused on the goal in a world and culture that would love nothing more than to distract us.

When You're Overbooked and Overwhelmed with Tara Sun

That our lives actually were an outpouring of God within us.
