Kristin and Tammie start the life session with a candid conversation about hope — its challenges, deferrals, and how faith, humor, and friendship help them navigate frustration and restoration.

They share personal stories from recent travels, family life, and spiritual low points, referencing the Psalms and biblical figures as anchors for hope, and invite listeners to suggest topics for season two.

Hosts reflect on the unexpected work of podcasting, their new accountability, and a deep dive into the book of Psalms after a candid session with Pastor Mike Olson.

They share how Psalms gave them words for anger and consolation amid real-life struggles (family setbacks, travel chaos, and daily cares), and tease an upcoming four-week series on hope before season two.

Episode 20 welcomes guest Michael Olson for a candid conversation about the Psalms, worship, and how driven personalities learn to sit with emotion in the presence of God. The hosts and Michael explore personal stories—from fearful church upbringings to the power of Sabbath, music, and poetry—to show how the Psalms give words for honest prayer and faithful living.

They also touch on identity, generational reconciliation, and practical ways to engage scripture as song rather than a problem to solve, encouraging listeners to bring their whole lives into communion with God.
