Ep. 13 | Legacy In The Making (with Laura Grindle)

In this episode, I sit down with Laura to talk about the beautiful, and sometimes challenging, balance of ministry, motherhood, and a passion for Bible quizzing. Laura shares her personal journey—how God has shaped her calling, the lessons she’s learned along the way, and what it looks like to faithfully serve both her family and the Kingdom. We dive into the impact of hiding God’s Word in the hearts of the next generation through Bible quizzing, and how that discipline has not only shaped young people, but strengthened her own walk with God. This conversation is full of honest moments, encouragement for busy moms in ministry, and a reminder that God equips us for every season He calls us to. Whether you’re involved in ministry, raising a family, or simply hungry for a deeper love of the Word, this episode will inspire you to stay faithful, stay rooted, and trust God with every part of your journey.

Ep. 12 | Betrayed By A Friend

What do you do when the people closest to you are the ones who hurt you the most? In this episode of Betrayed By A Friend, we take an honest look at the stories of Judas and Peter—two men who walked closely with Jesus, both failed Him, and both felt the weight of betrayal. Yet their responses led them down very different paths. If you’ve ever been betrayed, this episode is for you. It’s a reminder that: Your failure is not finalYour pain does not disqualify youAnd God can still use your story for something greater No matter what you’ve walked through, Jesus is still the author and finisher of your faith—and He’s not done writing your story.

Ep. 11 | Personal Devotion + Teaching Bible Studies (with Meg Najera)

In this heartfelt and faith-filled episode of For the Perfecting, Rachel French sits down with Meg Najera, host of the Unedited Podcast, for a conversation about life, family, and ministry. Meg opens up about her journey — from balancing marriage, family, and church responsibilities to discovering a steady rhythm in her personal walk with God. She shares how consistency in Bible reading and journaling didn’t happen overnight, but was cultivated through seasons of growth, discipline, and hunger for deeper relationship with the Lord. Together, Rachel and Meg talk about the power of daily devotion, the beauty of Bible journaling as a tool for understanding Scripture, and the transformative impact of teaching Bible studies. Meg offers practical insight and encouragement for anyone longing to grow in spiritual consistency and step confidently into teaching and discipleship. This episode is a transparent and uplifting reminder that spiritual depth is built one faithful day at a time — and that God honors consistency in the quiet places.

Ep. 10 | Keeping Christ in Christmas (with Nathan French)

In this episode, Nathan and Rachel share an exciting update on their newest book and song release, then dive into a meaningful moment from this Christmas season that turned into a powerful reminder to keep Christ at the center of it all. What started as a simple search for a missing piece in their nativity set—baby Jesus—became an unexpected spiritual analogy. That moment led them straight to Luke 2, where Mary and Joseph themselves had to search for Jesus and be reminded of the divine nature of the child entrusted to them. Through this story, Nathan and Rachel reflect on how easy it is to celebrate the season while accidentally misplacing its true focus—and how intentionally “finding Jesus” can realign our hearts, worship, and priorities. This episode is a heartfelt conversation about remembrance, reverence, and rediscovering the wonder of Christ in Christmas.
