Sunshine for Yofi: A Journey of Faith and Creativity

“Sunshine for Yofi” will be available May 12, 2026!  The episode features a heartfelt conversation with Bethany Crigger, a returning guest, who shares her journey as a writer and the inspiration behind her upcoming book, "Sunshine for Yofi." The discussion delves into themes of faith, self-discovery, and the importance of family support. Bethany talks about her love for storytelling through various art forms and how her experiences in Israel influenced her writing. The book, set in Jerusalem, explores the protagonist Yofi's struggles with performance anxiety and her spiritual journey. Yofi's journey is about embracing her identity and finding peace in her relationship with God, allowing her to share her talents and messages with the world. Yofi's story highlights the eternal importance of listening to the still small voice of the Holy Spirit and surrendering personal growth to Abba (God the Father), which also inspired Bethany to reflect on her own life and creative process. Bethany’s original song she mentions in the podcast - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOV8zraXaXk We 10/10 highly recommend “Sunshine for Yofi!” We got to read the book in advance. The art… the cadence… the story building… the weaving in and out of God’s heart and purpose is just stunning.

Ready to Get off the Hamster Wheel? Slow Down to Grow

In this episode, Rhema and Joia share personal stories and insights on the importance of patience, slowing down, and trusting God's timing in our lives. They explore how life's challenges and seasons of waiting can be opportunities for growth and deeper connection with God. Patience is a spiritual discipline that deepens our faith. God's timing is perfect, even when we don't understand it. Slowing down allows us to hear God's voice more clearly. Every season of waiting has a purpose in God's plan and practicing gratitude and praise shifts our focus from hurry to trust.

What do we do when anxiety strikes? Change how we pray

In today’s episode of Restore My Song, we talked with Brittany LaBrenz, the children’s pastor at The Mustard Seed church in Palisade, Colorado. She went through an intense battle with years of anxiety brought on by long covid, and in the process she learned to lean into pursuing relationship with Jesus. She discovered that He meets our needs before we even have to ask. This powerful episode will revolutionize how you pray and how you teach others to pray, primarily following the Lord’s prayer in Matthew 6:5-15.  Around minute 26, Rhema referenced this episode of the Imagine Heaven podcast - https://youtu.be/VaLK0UHfsrY?si=maHFJf-Hd3uH4Gdb [https://youtu.be/VaLK0UHfsrY?si=maHFJf-Hd3uH4Gdb].

The Cost of Love: What do you do when life has taken too much from you?

True love is risky. Costly.  Whether you are 10 or 70, your first big grief event will happen at some point, and love will cost you. In that moment we all have to choose - will we heal and bravely face continuing to walk our path? Or will we shut down?  In this episode we talk about how to face the hard grief days, and how to receive God's hope and love for your future, even when the unthinkable has happened to you.
