What should women's ministry actually produce?

In this conversation with Cyndee Ownbey, we talk about moving beyond event-driven programming to real, discipleship-centered ministry. What are the red flags of a shallow women's ministry? What role should spiritually mature women play? And how do we move women from consuming content to becoming committed disciple-makers?

If you're hungry for depth — or leading women who are — this episode will challenge and equip you to build something that produces lasting fruit.

Today we explore a growing trend among Christian women: approaching the Bible more for emotional comfort than for the knowledge of God.

Why do we gravitate toward the "easier" books of the Bible and avoid the ones that require deeper study? Has church quietly become a place for therapy rather than transformation? And how has a worldview known as Moralistic Therapeutic Deism shaped what many Christians expect from faith?

Shanda shares a personal lesson that exposed this mindset in her own life and offers a biblical solution—one that doesn't dismiss emotional healing, but roots it in theology instead of self-focus.

If we want lasting wholeness, we have to move from reading the Bible for ourselves to reading it to know God.

In this important conversation, I sit down with Cortney Donelson, author of Loving Them to Death, to talk about one of the most emotionally charged issues in our culture: love.

What if the way culture defines love isn't actually loving? What if affirmation without truth is doing more harm than good?

We unpack how "love" has been redefined to mean unconditional approval, why that definition falls short of the biblical standard, and how Christians are often pressured to compromise truth in order to appear compassionate. Cortney shares why untethering love from God's design doesn't rescue people — it enables destruction.

We also discuss what it really looks like to love people well: speaking truth with courage, refusing emotional manipulation, and anchoring our compassion in the character of Christ.

If you've ever been told you're unloving for holding to Scripture, this episode will equip you to think clearly and respond biblically.
