Couple of Scoops and Couple of Socks are Elevating Joy Levels in the South Sound this Summer

Jim’s story feels like something every parent can connect with—a dad who just wanted Molly to have a place where she belonged, and ended up creating two community‑changing businesses that feel more like family than anything else. Couple of Socks became the first home for that dream, a cozy little shop where Molly and her friends could work, grow, and be celebrated for exactly who they are. Then came Couple of Scoops, the ice cream shop that’s now buzzing with 35 employees with special needs, giving families this emotional jolt of hope the moment they walk in because they can suddenly picture their own kids thriving too. Through all of it, Jim shares how it’s all spirit‑led, and you can feel that—every sock sold and every scoop served is really about belonging, dignity, and showing God’s love in the most everyday, beautiful ways. * GUEST: Jim Ciaciuch, Founder of Couple of Scoops/Couple of Socks  * Couple of Socks: https://coupleofsocks.com/ * Couple of Scoops: https://www.facebook.com/p/Couple-of-Scoops-61586487928242/

Helping Mothers Choose Life and Choose Jesus - A Conversation with Dave Mitchell from Care Net of Puget Sound

CareNet of Puget Sound is one of those ministries that makes you want to stand up and cheer as you watch God moving in real time. The way they link arms with hundreds of churches, support women in crisis, and turn a simple ultrasound into a moment of holy clarity—it’s powerful and hope‑filled. Something that hit hard was Dave sharing about the Care Net prayer team. This group of over 1,700 people get real‑time texts and stop whatever they’re doing to pray for women who are wrestling with impossible decisions. Hearing how they lift these moms up in the exact moment they need courage, and then celebrate when a woman chooses life, reiterates to me how powerful it is when God’s people show up and pray boldly in the mighty name of Jesus.

Zach Williams Shares How God Waited for Him to Come Home

Sometimes God uses the most unexpected moments, like an Instagram video you watch while folding laundry, to remind you God is still in the business of chasing down His kids. Zach's song with Ben Fuller, “Wait for Me” makes me think about all the long, winding roads we take, and how God never stops waiting, never stops pursuing, never stops running toward us... It's a hug for anyone who’s ever wandered, and a reminder that even our detours aren’t wasted in God’s hands. Press PLAY for a transparent interview with Zach.

From Fighting For His Life, To Writing A Life-giving Novel: A Conversation About Overcoming Adversity With Author Joshua Parkerson

“I can do all things through Christ Who gives me strength!” - Philippians 4:13 “You take what the enemy meant for evil and turn it for good.” -Elevation Worship My son was a healthy teenager playing high school football when a cruel disease called ulcerative colitis (UC) took over his body and left him looking like a concentration camp victim. Today, he’s a walking miracle… praise God! Through years of middle of the night emergency room visits, terrifying surgeries, and heart wrenching procedures, I watched my son suffer and trust Jesus. Yes, he had his moments of doubt and anger… but he never gave up! With a deep faith and a positive attitude, he fought the good fight… and the Lord brought him back to life. UC stole his large intestine… but we like to say “No colon, still rollin’!” Now, he wants to help others who are shocked by the viciousness of UC. I want to publicly congratulate my son, AUTHOR Joshua Parkerson, for writing and illustrating a graphic novel about overcoming UC… and really, adversity in life. It’s a story based on his own journey that I believe will help other young people process their diagnosis and learn how to overcome. It’s hopeful, inspiring, and truly an example of God’s goodness. PRAISE JESUS! Josh is the bravest, kindest, positive human I know and Will and I could not be prouder. He has an ISBN NUMBER! 🎉 This is something GOOD! 🙌 It’s Romans 8:28 in action: “… we know that God causes •everything• to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them." EVERYTHING… even a brutal disease that almost claimed the life of our only son. Josh is my very special guest today on the morning show. Join us for a heartfelt conversation about never giving up!
