Cross-Country Faith with Isaac Einhell (Episode 43)

What do you do when you have no idea what tomorrow brings? Our guest, Isaac Einhell, may not have the answer you want to hear, but he does share some incredible encouragement that may help remind you Whose hands you're in. Isaac moved across the country to Nashville when God closed every door for him to find a job back home in California.  After connecting with the local church, finding a wonderful community, and believing that God has Isaac right where he wants him to be, he still is unsure what his future looks like. However, through the action of gratitude and prayer, Isaac continues to trust in God's plan even when tomorrow looks blurry. We hope you'll be encouraged by Isaac's testimony today!

The Heart of Hospitality with Kenzie Peters and Bella Ponce (Episode 42)

Hospitality. What does that look like? Who is it for? Who is called to be hospitable? Kenzie, Bella and Lydia do a deep dive into the heart of hospitality for you and hopefully answer your questions on what biblical hospitality looks like. Kenzie and Bella are friends who met in college and bonded over their love for Magnolia Journal, which then lead to their heart for showing hospitality to those around them. From California to Texas to Tennessee, Kenzie and Bella have followed one another and have always made sure to share the love of Christ through showing hospitality. Whether that looks like hosting people at their tiny apartment, making dinners with and for friends, or even driving your friends to their classes when they don't have a car available to them.  Their heart for hospitality is so evident and we hope that this will encourage you today. ....

Living Single with Lauren Fisackerly (Episode 40)

As a heads up, you'll notice that this episode we have some major technical difficulties! We apologize for the poor quality, but we hope the topic of conversation will more than make up for it. For best quality of sound, listen with headphones. Today we have our host, Lydia Summer, sitting down with her friend, Lauren Fisackerly! What seemed like fate in their meeting, Lauren and Lydia bonded over a mutual love of writing, a desire to share Truth, and our season of singleness. Lauren shares on the show with us some of her experiences on dating and dating apps, while also sharing about waiting on the Lord in her season of singleness. Even if God were to say no to her desire for marriage, Lauren still trusts that God is good, and that her singleness is for her good, as well as an opportunity to poor more into others' lives. Stay tuned until the end where Lauren prays over our fellow single friends! Whether you're single or married, we believe and pray that this conversation will be an encouragement to you.  .....
