Contentment, Money & Materialism

What if a life of contentment is within your reach, and the secret to finding it is less about what you have and more about where your heart is? In this episode, we’re talking about true contentment—not the kind the world promises through money, success, or “more,” but the kind Scripture calls us to in 1 Timothy 6. Coming out of the holiday season, it’s easy to slip into materialism, comparison, and unmet expectations. But God offers us something better: godliness with contentment that brings great gain. We walk verse-by-verse through 1 Timothy 6 to uncover: * Why materialism leads to disappointment and “many griefs” * The difference between having money and loving money * How gratitude dismantles entitlement * Why your heart follows whatever you invest in * What it actually looks like to “seek first the kingdom of God” You’ll hear three practical, Biblical steps to cultivate contentment this year: 1. Practice gratitude 2. Grow your affection for God by investing in the things of God. 3. Build God’s kingdom, not your own kingdom. If you’re searching for fulfillment, a biblical perspective on money, daily joy, great trust, gratitude, or spiritual growth, this episode will encourage and challenge you to walk into contentment—one of the keys to unlocking the life that is truly life.

Don’t let fear hold you back from your God-given dream or calling with Kate Griffin

What if the only thing standing between you and your God-given dream or calling is FEAR? Today I’m sitting down with a dear friend and role model of mine—Kate Griffin. Kate is an entrepreneur, musician, worship leader, mom of four, and the founder of Pittsburgh School of the Arts, a thriving private music school with two locations, over 30 teachers, and over 250 students. With years of experience in ministry and worship leading to now running her own small business, Kate carries a depth of wisdom and a steady, faith-filled perspective that I know will encourage you. In our conversation, she opens up about the challenges of balancing motherhood, marriage, and entrepreneurship. She shares about the power of your yes and your no, and how tuning in to the Holy Spirit helps her discern the pace of each season—when to move forward boldly, when to slow down, and how to keep her relationship with God, her husband, and her kids at the forefront of it all. Kate also talks about leadership, the importance of being a lifelong learner, and the power that comes when you release fear—especially the fear of failure. And she offers practical guidance for turning a dream into a real plan by writing it down, seeking mentorship, leaning into your God-given passions and abilities, and taking small, faithful steps toward your goals.

The Simple Gospel

What if I told you I had the best news you’re ever gonna hear?  Do you really know who Jesus is, what he did, and what that has to do with you? I’m Sara Bannister, the host of the Truly Life Podcast. I’m a wife, mom, musician, and most importantly a follower of Jesus, and today I’m sharing the GOSPEL—the Good News about Jesus and eternal life in Him! In this episode, we’ll start from the beginning with how God created the world and everyone in it with the desire to have a relationship with us. Then we’ll talk about the problem of sin and how it separates us from God. And that will bring us to God’s solution—Jesus—the son of God who came to earth and died on a cross to pay the punishment for our sin. Salvation is a free gift from God if only we accept Him, repent, and believe in Jesus. If you have decided to put your faith in Jesus, your next steps are to get involved in a local church, get baptized, and GROW in your relationship with God!

26 Lessons in 26 Years

They say, “you learn something new every day” so I think it’s safe to say you definitely learn something new every year!  Hi! I’m Sara Bannister—a follower of Jesus, wife, mom, musician, and the host of the Truly Life Podcast—and in this episode I’m sharing twenty-six lessons I’ve learned over my twenty-six years of life.  From health and lifestyle tips, to nuggets of wisdom about friendship and community, to my best marriage advice and thoughts on motherhood, to reminders about contentment, priorities, and the importance of taking one moment at a time—these are all personal lessons that God has taught me as I’ve walked with Him through different seasons of life. My hope is that as you listen, these little bits of truth would encourage you to trust God more deeply, grow in grace daily, and live more fully in the light of His presence in each moment.
