Lisa Harper is one of my favorite humans on the planet, and I mean that. I've known her in the back rooms and on the platforms, through the hard things and the hilarious ones. She is exactly who you think she is. Exactly.

In this episode, we go deep on what it actually looks like to stay faithful in ministry for over thirty years without burning out. Lisa is honest about the self-dug pits, the shame, the orphan spirit she carried for decades, and how God met her in every single one of them. We talk about the difference between accruing knowledge about God and actually knowing Him, and why that distinction changes everything.

We also get into her adoption of Missy, what it means to hold trauma and redemption in the same hand, and how Lisa has built deep friendships across the theological spectrum in a culture that keeps trying to divide us into camps.

And because Lisa is Lisa, we end with her perfect beautiful day. Which involves Fritos, wake surfing, and a fire. You're going to want to plan that day for yourself immediately.

This one is a gift. I hope you feel that.
