Lysa TerKeurst and Dr. Joel Muddamalle talk about what it means to trust God when life doesn’t go as planned. Through biblical teaching and personal stories—including Lysa’s own journey through the painful end of her marriage—they explore how broken trust, loss, and uncertainty can shake our confidence, but also how God consistently proves Himself faithful. They discuss practical ways to keep trusting Him by staying rooted in His Word, following the Spirit’s leading, and surrounding ourselves with godly community. This conversation is an honest and hope-filled reminder that even in our hardest seasons, God’s character remains steady and He will faithfully carry us through.

Scarlet Hiltibidal joins Angie and Andrea for an honest conversation about shame—how it sneaks in through striving, guilt, and the pressure to be “enough.” Looking at Scripture and sharing personal stories, they talk about the difference between conviction that leads to freedom and shame that keeps us stuck. Scarlett reminds us that in Christ there is no condemnation, and that as we fix our eyes on Jesus—not ourselves—we can walk in real joy and peace.

Angie Elkins and Andrea Lennon are joined by author and Bible teacher Courtney Reissig for a thoughtful conversation on what the Bible really says about forgiveness. Courtney unpacks why forgiveness is rooted in the gospel, how it differs from excusing sin or avoiding consequences, and why trusting God with justice is often central to the healing process. Drawing from Scripture and personal experience, they explore forgiveness as a journey—one that releases bitterness, honors boundaries, and reflects our trust in the God who sees, knows, and promises to make all things right.

Caroline Saunders joins us to explore what the Bible says about balance. Instead of offering a formula, Caroline reframes balance as a Spirit-led practice rooted in worship, where we honor our God-given limits while trusting a limitless God. Drawing from Psalms, Mary and Martha, Proverbs 31, and the life of Jesus, the conversation addresses overwhelm, changing seasons, work and rest, giving healthy no’s, and recognizing the warning signs of imbalance like bitterness and exhaustion.
