'cause grace rewrote my story, i'll testify: my battle with depression

What's up fam! Welcome back to another episode of The Faithful Pursuit Podcast! On this special episode, I share my battle with depression from the past few years. Depression is a major issue in our society and is even a controversial topic in Christian circles. Is it a chemical imbalance? Is it from a lack of faith and trust? Did I do something wrong? Why do I feel like this? Can Christians have depression? Am I less of a Christian because I am depressed? How can God love me if I am still broken? These thoughts spiraled around in my head, bringing me to a really dark place. I wanted to hide in my darkness and shame. I couldn't see a way out. I thought my life was over. Maybe you've experienced this before. But God... God used medication to help me. He sat in the deepest, darkest pit with me. He showed me love and grace and mercy. He suffered with me. And He pulled me out of that pit. Satan wants us to hide in the darkness. To sit in our brokenness all alone. But God calls us to bring our brokenness to the light. To expose it. Sharing your struggles and seeking help is key to the healing process. I hope this encourages you to know that you are not alone and that Jesus is with you in the suffering, and he WILL bring you out of it!

prop. 139 got passed, now what?: the christian response to abortion in arizona.| with Nicole Martin

This is Season 2 Episode 4!!! I am joined by my friend and expert in all things abortion and the pro-life movement, Nicole Martin! Proposition 139 was a bill that was passed last month in Arizona. This vague piece of legislation basically legalized abortion through all 9 months for any reason in Arizona. Crazy right? How did this happen? Me and Nicole uncover how the bill campaigned on deceitful misinformation that tricked 2/3rds of Arizonians to vote for it. What's the next step for Christians and pro-lifers? Tune in to the episode to find out all about Proposition 139, abortion, courage, and service. Do you agree with our perspective? Comment your thoughts!

love thy neighbor with your vote: does voting matter anyway?| with Kate Van Steenwyk

Welcome to Season 2 Episode 3 of The Faithful Pursuit Podcast! As if last week's episode wasn't controversial enough, we've got another spicy topic today. Politics is so controversial among Christians that some completely sit out of elections. It's projected that 32 million Americans who identify as Christians were not going to vote in this election. Why aren't Christians voting? Should Christians even vote? If so, how should they do so in a Christ-like way? Aside from voting, are there any other ways to make a difference in our communities? Kate Van Steenwyk, a knowledgeable social work major and soon to be graduate, sits down with me to talk about all this and more! Do you agree with our perspective? Comment your thoughts!
