In this episode, Lori talks with bestselling author and radio host Brant Hansen about his book, Living Unoffended: The Joy of Simple Peace in an Angry, Anxious World, and the freedom that comes when we stop allowing another person's words, choices, or actions to control our peace.

For anyone standing and praying for marriage restoration, this conversation is especially powerful. Jesus tells us to bless those who persecute us, love our enemies, forgive, and extend grace, even when we have been deeply hurt. Those commands can feel incredibly difficult when the person causing the pain is the spouse you love.

Brant shares why living unoffended does not mean pretending the hurt isn't real or excusing sinful behavior. Instead, it means releasing anger, refusing to live trapped in resentment, and trusting God with what we cannot control.

You'll hear practical encouragement and tips straight from Scripture about how you can stop carrying anger and bitterness.

If you are tired of carrying anger, replaying offenses, or allowing your spouse's choices to steal your joy, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to follow the radically different way of Jesus.

In this episode, we look at Genesis 15:1-21 and the tension many believers feel: How do we trust God who promises, but has not yet delivered?

When our circumstances seem to contradict what God has said, waiting can feel confusing, painful, and discouraging. But Genesis 15 reminds us that God is not afraid of our questions. He invites us to look to Him in the delay, trust His timing, and rest in the certainty of His promises.

Natasha first shared their story with us more than five years ago, but this time Tim joins the conversation to share his side of the journey. He reflects on the surprising person God used to encourage him to go home and the pointed question from one of his sons that became a turning point in his walk with Jesus.
