E45: Agape Love

E51: The Esther Principal

"God does not call the qualified. He qualifies those that are called." In the Book of Esther, the name of God isn't mentioned even once. Yet, His fingerprints are heavy on every single page. If you are currently standing in a season where God feels silent, or where you feel entirely hidden and overwhelmed, this week's episode of Brewing Faith: Coffee and Conversations was made for you. We’re breaking down Esther’s strategic response to a crisis, the weapon of fasting, and the incredible truth that your current placement...in your family, your job, and your community, is not a mistake. You are there for such a time as this, and your obedience today is building a legacy for tomorrow.

E50: The Isaiah Principal

Ever asked God to use you for big things, only to realize you weren't actually ready for the refinement that comes with it? In this episode, we dive into the Old Testament to look at Isaiah's powerful encounter with the majesty of God. Before Isaiah could ever say, "Here am I, send me," he had to be completely honest about his own brokenness and allow God to do the heavy lifting of cleansing and refining his heart. Grab your coffee and get ready for a vulnerable conversation about stepping out of the way, giving up the need for control, and letting God replace our old habits with something entirely new.

E49: The Job Principle

Stripping away the pressure to "just stay positive" when life gets heavy, this episode dives into a raw, unfiltered look at the story of Job to answer a crucial question: How do we act when hardship inevitably arrives? Reflecting on recent personal grief, including the loss of her grandmother and her grandfather’s recent massive heart attack, the host breaks down Job's ancient symbols of mourning, his blunt vulnerability with the Creator, and how a shift toward gratitude can completely transform our perspective on pain. Whether you are currently walking through your own "modern-day Job moment," feeling completely overwhelmed, or crying through the tears, this episode is a powerful reminder that God can handle your rawest emotions and that our Redeemer truly lives!

E48: The Porch Light Principal

What do you do when the person you love most is choosing a path that breaks your heart? In this episode of Brewing Faith, we tackle the heavy reality of loving someone who isn't walking with Christ. Drawing from Ezekiel and the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke, we discuss why you can’t carry someone into heaven on your own shoulders and how to protect your own spirit without closing your heart. Whether you are praying for a "wayward son" or navigating a difficult relationship, join us for a conversation on setting godly boundaries, practicing holy stewardship, and keeping the porch light on while you wait for the harvest

E47: Convicting Self Improvement & Disciplined Lifestyles

This episode of Brewing Faith explores the intersection of spiritual maturity and personal discipline, after this past season of life and watching my husband's preparation for an Ironman triathlon... I felt called to share this experience and my own personal interests as a metaphor for the Christian life. I hope this episode challenges you to move past the "comfortable chaos" of laziness and gluttony, often times that reek in our lives and hide within the lack of self-control and a reliance on worldly comforts like media or food—and instead embrace their role as stewards of the Holy Spirit’s temple. By highlighting the importance of being faithful in small daily habits, such as making one's bed or choosing discipline over excuses, this episode emphasizes that physical and mental health are acts of worship and essential components of leaving a lasting godly legacy for the next generation.
