Patience sounds holy… until you actually have to practice it. In this episode, we talk about what it really looks like to wait well—on God, on people, and on timing we don’t always understand.

We break down the difference between passive waiting and spiritual patience, how impatience reveals what’s happening in our hearts, and why trusting God’s timing leads to deeper peace and maturity.

Pull up a chair and join us at the table as we explore the slow, stretching, beautifully refining work of patience.

In this week’s episode, we welcome our very first guest — a mentor, writer, and woman of deep wisdom who has spent years learning to recognize the voice of God in every season. Together, we talk about what it really looks like to hear God clearly, not just in moments of certainty, but in the wilderness seasons where His voice feels faint, distant, or different than we expected.

She shares the rhythms that help her stay grounded, the ways God has spoken into her life through Scripture, community, and quiet obedience, and how discernment has shaped her journey as a wife, mother, writer, and follower of Jesus. This conversation is honest, steady, and full of the kind of clarity only someone who has walked closely with Him can offer.

Pull up a chair — this one feels like sitting with someone who just knows how to speak truth when you need it most.

Peace sounds simple — until life gets messy. In this episode, we talk about the kind of peace that doesn’t depend on circumstances, but on the presence of God Himself.

We dive into what it means to experience the “peace that surpasses understanding,” how to stay grounded when everything feels uncertain, and how trusting God shifts the way we respond to chaos.

Pull up a chair and join us at the table as we unpack the kind of peace that anchors us — not just when life is calm, but especially when it’s not.

Joy isn’t the same as happiness — and it’s not always easy to find. In this episode, we talk about what true, lasting joy looks like when it’s rooted in Christ rather than circumstances.

We unpack the difference between momentary happiness and spiritual joy, how to hold on to joy in difficult seasons, and why it’s something the world can’t take away. Even in the middle of uncertainty, God invites us to live from a place of peace, gratitude, and hope.

Pull up a chair and join us at the table as we dive into the kind of joy that stays — no matter what.

Love. It’s the first fruit of the Spirit, but also the hardest to live out sometimes. In this episode, we dig into what real, Christ-centered love looks like — beyond feelings, expectations, or convenience.

We talk about how God defines love, what it means to love people who are hard to love, and how to reflect His heart in every season and relationship. From selfless sacrifice to everyday kindness, we’re exploring what happens when love leads first.

Pull up a chair and join us at the table as we start our new series on the fruit of the Spirit — beginning with the one that holds it all together: Love.

Love isn’t always easy. From friendships to family, it’s often through conflict, timing, and reconciliation that we learn what love really looks like. In this episode, we talk about biblical conflict resolution, healthy confrontation, and what it means to forgive without losing boundaries.

We also get real about God’s timing in relationships, healing from past hurt, and finding belonging in Christ when connection feels hard to find. Plus, a conversation on chosen family and bridging the generational gaps in faith and culture between children and parents.

Pull up a chair for our season finale—a conversation on the kind of love that refines, restores, and reminds us who we belong to. We'll see you soon for season two!

Who we surround ourselves with matters. In this episode, we dive into dating with discernment—what it looks like to be equally yoked, how to spot red and green flags, and the role boundaries play in protecting our hearts. We also talk about singleness with purpose, choosing to thrive instead of just waiting, and the gift of finding community that feels like family. From covenant friendships to chosen family, this conversation is all about the circles that shape us and how God uses them to grow us.

We’ve all asked ourselves at some point: am I really ready for love, or am I just lonely? In this episode, we unpack what it means to step into romantic relationships and friendships from a place of healing and wholeness. From navigating singleness to building Christ-centered friendships, we explore how true readiness flows from God’s work in us first. We also talk about the beauty of covenant friendships—ones marked by loyalty, accountability, and encouragement—and how they can shape the way we love others well.

Who am I, really? It’s one of the biggest questions we wrestle with. Too often, our identity gets wrapped up in achievements, failures, or how others see us. In this episode, we’re unpacking what it looks like to view ourselves through a broken mirror versus the true reflection of who God says we are.

We share honest conversations about comparison, insecurity, and pressure—and the freedom that comes with grounding our identity in Christ.

Pull up a chair and join us at the table as we talk about who we are, and who we’re not.

If you've ever felt drained, overwhelmed, or like you're doing everything but nothing feels fulfilling — this one's for you.

In this episode, we open up about the real tension of trusting God's timing when life feels like it's on pause. From honest stories of seasons where faith felt inconvenient to the hope that comes from knowing God is still working behind the scenes, we talk about the beauty — and the struggle — of waiting well.

This isn't about being "perfect Christians" — it's about real faith, real struggles, and real conversations. Pull up a chair and join us at the table.
