This week we talk with Scotty Hasting, a combat wounded Army infantryman turned national recording artist. Scottyâs journey from the battlefield to the stage is nothing short of remarkable. After surviving a harrowing attack in Afghanistan, where he was shot multiple times, Scotty fought to recover physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Through his battles with PTSD and depression, he found healing in musicâan outlet that not only brought him peace, but gave him a new lease on life.
Later in the episode, weâll hear from Dave Gibbons, a globally connected advisor, author, and senior pastor at New Song Church in California. With a life shaped by diverse cultures and a deep understanding of human struggles, he opens up about his early experiences with faith, the hidden wounds from his past, and his journey through betrayal, forgiveness, and mental health breakthroughsârevealing how forgiveness has the power to heal even the deepest wounds.

Interview Quotes:
âI began to start repairing my life. What that looked like, I had no idea. I just knew that I couldn't allow my children to be captivated by the streets or people. I made up my mind that what happened to me, I didn't want them to use as an excuse for them not succeeding in life.â - Sabrina Greenlee
âThere were so many different things that happened to me, and each time I got up. No matter what happened, I stood for myself. I stood in my truth.â - Sabrina Greenlee
âOnce I found the presence of God and He met me where I was, everything turned around. But you first have to surrender and give God your life. In the end, He'll give you the glory for your story.â - Sabrina Greenlee
âIt kind of seems that how I was challenged in the racing world, I was also challenged in my faith. I said a long time ago that I would not be a racer if it wasn't for my faith. It's my foundation that I lean on, and it's the thing that I call to and find purpose in.â - Sting Ray Robb
âI had the realization and clarity and peace that came from knowing that [the race] wasn't in my control. I could trust God's sovereignty.â - Sting Ray Robb
âI'm doing my best with racing to glorify Him and use this as a platform to reach others and provide some form of excellence that people can see a reflection of God through.â - Sting Ray Robb
âGod has called us in a direction, and it's our job to hitch ourselves to that direction and go with what He's telling us to do.â - Sting Ray Robb

This week, weâre joined by Sherry Hoppenâauthor, speaker, recovery coach, and founder of She Surrenders. Sherry recounts her family history of alcohol abuse, and how she herself descended into a secret addiction to alcohol, all the while trying to paint the perfect picture of her life as a wife, a mom, and a Christian.
Later, weâll hear from author and advocate Tanya Glessner, who also struggled with addiction's grip, one fueled by the trauma and violence she experienced in her childhood. Spiraling into a life filled with drugs and crime, Tanya eventually went to prison, where unexpectedly, she had a personal and spiritual awakening.

âFrom the outside, yeah, it all looks pretty good. I wore the mask of everything: Christian, mom in the community, my husband was an elder. There was no place for me to stand up and say, âI'm an alcoholic and I need help.ââ - Sherry Hoppen
âI knew that [alcohol] had the power to take away everything I love, every single thing. So I raised one hand in the air to God and with the other unscrewed the bottle over the sink. And I said, âGod, take it. I surrender my life and I give it to you. I'm yours. I'll do whatever you want.â And I poured it down the sink.â - Sherry Hoppen
âThe grace that God showed me each and every day, even while I was drinking, was the only thing that rescued me from complete self-destruction and saved my life.â - Sherry Hoppen
âI'll always cherish the memories of how God started to mend my brokenness.â - Tanya Glessner
âI am living proof that no one is too far gone to be saved. God never wastes a hurt. He is using my past to write others' futures.â - Tanya Glessner
âPrayer is like picking up the phone and calling the one person you know you can count on in any situation, no matter what time it is.â - Tanya Glessner

This week, weâre joined by two remarkable guests: former Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison and evangelist Preston Perry. Both have navigated complex challenges, from political arenas to personal struggles, all while remaining deeply committed to their faith in God.
Scott Morrison reflects on his time as Prime Minister of Australia, leading through natural disasters, global crises, and the balancing act of being a husband and father. He offers a candid glimpse into how his relationship with God sustained him during his years in public service.
Later, weâll hear from Preston Perry, a poet, author, teacher, apologist, and evangelist from the South Side of Chicago. Growing up in challenging circumstances, Prestonâs life took a transformative turn through a series of encounters with mentors and personal tragedies, guiding him to discover Godâs purpose and use his gifts to reach others through his powerful words.

How To Tell The Truth: The Story of How God Saved Me To Win Hearts, Not Just Arguments
Interview Quotes:
âIn our home, it was not about what you accumulated as what you contributed.â - Scott Morrison
âI don't know how people do politics and don't have faith. Frankly, I don't know how they survive it. You've got to be able to know what you're about and what you're trying to achieve. And that can't be about you.â - Scott Morrison
âI really drew on my faith to give me that strength, to give me that endurance, to give me that resilience, to give me the hope and the optimism that I so often needed. And it was a refuge. It was a storehouse.â - Scott Morrison
âBy all means, stand up for the principles of God, and then the Word of God and what His eternal standards are. Hold fast to those things. Let's not forget what the goal is. The goal is to honor Him and glorify Him.â - Scott Morrison
âYou are, as a human being, created by His hand, in His image, for His glory. That means you're special. He had His designs for you before you were even born. And when you ground your identity in that, then the storms come and you can weather them.â - Scott Morrison
âI think what my grandmother's words showed me was that this God that she served was real and tangible. It wasn't just behavior modification. It wasn't just duties. It wasn't just standing outside, passing out your literature. This real God was able to come and give her strength and joy and comfort her in her time of need.â - Preston Perry
âJesus came for souls. He didn't come to look smart or intelligent or to look like He knew better than the next man, or just win arguments. He wanted to win people. And so if the information we know is what we find our identity in and not the God that we know, we'll always treat people like projects and not image bearers.â - Preston Perry
âI've learned in evangelism to ask good questions. Because when you ask good questions, people teach you how to serve them.â - Preston Perry

This week, we explore how two individuals answered the call to serve those in need, and how their actions have sparked movements of care and compassion that are changing lives one small step at a time.
Weâll hear from Adrien Lewis, a devoted husband, father, and founder of CarePortal, an innovative platform that connects churches and communities to families in need. Adrien shares how a mission trip to Haiti transformed his life, shifting his perspective and leading him to put his faith into action.
Later in the episode, we'll hear from Cara Finger, a foster and adoptive mom whoâafter witnessing children in foster care carry their belongings in trash bagsâfelt compelled to create My Bag My Story. This ministry provides quality bags for these children, giving them dignity and a sense of belonging during their most challenging transitions.

Interview Quotes:
âI think God just gave us a bigger vision for our lives, a bigger purpose than we had before. We started to think about ourselves and what we could be part of to change the world, and how much that mattered to us, how much we wanted that, and how much we knew that Jesus wanted that for us.â - Adrien Lewis
âEverybody has a chance at transformation. And connection is the thing that changes everything.â - Adrien Lewis
âWhen we became foster parents, every child that came to us came through our door carrying their belongings. We were handed either a grocery sack, a trash bag, or nothing carrying the children's belongings, and it kept bothering me.â - Cara Finger
âHaving a bag to carry your stuff in, to carry your belongings in is so important. It is very, very important for kids. If you are made to leave your home in the middle of the day or in the middle of the night, how some of these kids do, it's one simple thing that can make a child feel valued and seen.â - Cara Finger
âEven though a bag seems really small, it makes a huge difference in a child's dignity and their organization and feeling like they have something to call their own, to carry their belongings in.â - Cara Finger
âIt is very important to give our life away somehow. We were not meant to not live in community. Everybody needs everybody.â - Cara Finger

This week, weâll hear from two influential voices in the Christian community, Joe Dobbins and Aimee Byrd. Joe Dobbins, pastor of Twin Rivers Church in St. Louis, Missouri, and author of Hope After Church Hurt, shares he and his wife's painful experiences with their church and the healing process that followed. His insights provide a roadmap for those struggling with similar wounds, offering steps toward restoring faith and re-engaging with the church. Following Joe's story, our next guest is speaker, blogger, and podcaster Aimee Byrd. Aimee opens up about her lifelong journey of searching for belonging in the church, and how she learned through trials and painful hurts that God wants us to ask questions, and even though we might be scarred by those who twist truths to facilitate how they think we should live, we can find our way back to God and what He says about how we were meant to live.

The Hope In Our Scars
Interview Quotes:
âThe season that followed that painful experience was one where we physically attended church, but we withheld our hearts, and the rejection we felt caused us to lose confidence in leaders. It created a distrust for people, and it did cause us to question our place in the communityâŠGod is omnipresent, meaning He's everywhere that we are at all times. But just because you are in His presence doesn't mean you have entered His presence. To enter God's presence, meaning to receive Him, your heart has to be open. And pain had caused my heart to close.â - Joe Dobbins
âHealing begins by knocking your feelings off the throne of your heart and allowing Jesus to retake His proper place.â - Joe Dobbins
âForgiveness is never a one-time event. It's a daily exercise, that every time you remember how they hurt you, you're going to have to decide to release it and forgive it again. And eventually what happens is that practice causes the decision in your head to move into the feelings in your heart. And if you'll do it enough, you'll eventually find the pain you've been carrying from rejection is replaced with God's peace.â - Joe Dobbins
âJesus said, âFollow me,â not follow my followers. And I believe that a lot of church hurt is wrapped up when our expectations are not met from a person we esteem, or see that they should be further along in their journey.â - Joe Dobbins
âI think it's interesting today how Christians are really known more for the points they want to make. But yet Jesus was known for asking questionsâŠthe church would do well today to remember listening is loving, because often we too quickly jump to trying to tell people what they need to do before we understand the pain they've been through.â - Joe Dobbins
âI still had this vigor to learn more about God and who He was. And I started learning like, Oh, there's a word for that. It's called theology, just the study of who God is. And that fascinated me.â - Aimee Byrd
âI was traveling all over the place, meeting so many different women in the church, and realizing that there are many like me who are struggling as thinking women in the church who want to be more engaged theologically, who want to get into deeper Bible study, to be able to be invested in the whole heart of the church.â - Aimee Byrd
âThere were so many things I needed to die to myself in this process of disillusionment and healing. But you look to the left and you look to the right and you realize there's a whole crowded underground of people doing the same thing, and that's what church should be.â - Aimee Byrd
âGod wants us to come with our questions.â - Aimee Byrd
âWe're here to tell our stories, to hold one another's stories. And as we look at our wounds and the scars as they're healing, they bear testimony to where we've been, what we're going through, where Christ has met us.â - Aimee Byrd

Sometimes life hands us a situation, or an experience, that we never expected. Maybe itâs something exciting, like a new relationship or adventure, but sometimes it can be full of sorrow, too, like the loss of a job we loved or an unexpected illness that derails everything. But itâs in those moments that we find out who we are, and what God has made us capable of, giving us an opportunity to really show up for others.
This week, we sit down with Josh Baldwin, a worship leader, songwriter, and artist with over two decades of experience. Josh opens up about walking through a challenging season of mental health in his family, and how he turned to music for comfort and direction from the Lord, which he now uses to bring comfort and peace to his listeners.
Later, weâll hear from Diane Chew, known as Dementia Coach Diane, a life coach and caregiver for her husband, Ben, who has Lewy Body Dementia. Diane shares practical tips for dementia care and emphasizes self-care for caregivers, drawing from her experiences of over fifty years with Ben and the challenges of his cognitive decline. She finds solace and community through social media and discusses the crucial role of faith in navigating these challenges.

âWherever He's given permission to reign in my life, then the peace just automatically is there because the peace follows Him.â - Josh Baldwin
âI feel like it's hard for me to be anxious about things and grateful to the Lord for all Heâs done at the same time.â - Josh Baldwin
âI felt like all I could do was kind of react to one mini crisis after another. I was just responding and reacting to what felt like a constant emergency.â - Diane Chew

*This episode mentions suicide and depression and may not be suitable for all listeners.*
In an era where the pressures of modern life can feel overwhelming, two remarkable stories offer a unique perspective in our increasingly digital world.
Our first guest, mental health counselor and advocate Faith Broussard Cade, embarked on a path to self-discovery following a traumatic brain injury. Diagnosed with post-concussive syndrome after a severe car accident, her journey underscored the critical importance of self-care and the necessity of prioritizing mental well-being in todayâs fast-paced world.
Later in the episode, weâll hear from Hannah Brencherâan author and educatorâwho delves into the impact of constant digital connectivity on mental health and personal well-being, drawing from her own experiences. Hannah shares her journey toward unplugging, which began as a personal revelation on her birthday and led her to set a goal of 1,000 hours of disconnection over the course of a year.

Interview Quotes:
âI had a decision to make. Do I keep up the facade that I've always kept of being the superwoman who can always do everything and be everything to everyone? Or do I give up that facade for the hope of being able to have a future?â - Faith Broussard Cade
âWhat was supposed to be fifteen days of me kind of jump-starting my own healing journey has now turned into six and a half years of writing notes and encouraging this community collective healing journey for a lot of other people, not just myself.â - Faith Broussard Cade
âI found my hero. She's been inside of me the entire time, and I am so proud of who she has become.â - Faith Boussard Cade
âJust because it's not a good fit for someone else doesn't negate the goodnessâthe innate goodnessâof who I am and who I try to be, and how I try to show up for others.â - Faith Boussard Cade
âWhat I really wanted to do in that unplugged year was just be present to it for myself, for that part of myself that was exhausted, for that part of myself that needed to get back these vital parts of herself.â - Hannah Brencher
âWhat would it really look like to check in with myself, and what would it really look like to take care of myself at the end of a long day?â - Hannah Brencher
âI can actually experience peace just by taking these little ordinary moments throughout my day and seeing them as an opportunity to meet with God and hear from God.â - Hannah Brencher
âHe's a God of peace. He's a God of goodness. He's a God that wants good for your life, and He's a God that just wants you to be near. Not for any other motive, but the fact that He loves you and He wants to be with you, and He wants to show you daily life through a lens that maybe you haven't looked through before.â - Hannah Brencher

Interview Quotes:
âI just knew I had a calling on my life to be an athlete.â - Matt FortĂ©
âEvery day, marching up eight flights to get books and to go to practice and get back home, all of that really taught me never to complain about the luxuries that you get in life that we often overlook or take for granted. It taught me a lot.â - Matt FortĂ©
âPut in a lot of hard work, but also have faith in yourself and really have faith in God that He is a good God, that He has good plans for you as well.â - Matt FortĂ©
âHad it not been for Jesus coming down and dying for our sins and living a sinless life and paying the debt for what we've accumulated, there would be no hope. And in return, we have to reflect the hope that He's given us.â - Matt FortĂ©
âI think there's something formative about that that kind of clicks in a comedian's brain, that extra little bump of attention that you get from someone laughing or you kind of push someone's buttons in a way. There's something about that that is pretty remarkable.â - Jonnie W.
âI like to think about the people that are coming to my shows and what private pain they might have, what they might need release from. My comedy comes from a place of faith. I feel like it's such a gift that I discovered that I could do this and that God's opened doors for me to go do it, so I never take it for granted.â - Jonnie W.
âI think you're missing out on something that God wired inside of you if you're not laughing.â - Jonnie W.

*This episode contains content that may be triggering for some listeners.*
Our guests this week went through circumstances that could potentially cause someone to want to give up. But instead of descending into panic, or utter hopelessness, they re-centered their focus on their faith, and trusted God that He would provide a way forward.
Blind speaker Michael Hingson faced the unimaginable as a survivor of 9/11, escaping from tower one with the help of his guide dog, Roselle, and the spirit of calm he inhabited became a beacon for others in the middle of the panic and chaos. Singer Eve Selis openly shares about the tragic and devastating loss of her brother Pete, and what her journey of healing looked like. By journaling and praying her way through the darkness, Eve became her most vulnerable self, which resonated with others and helped her find a renewed sense of hope when sheâd been hopeless for so long.

Interview Quotes:
âI knew that if Roselle wasn't feeling fear, whatever was going on wasn't such an imminent threat to us that we couldn't try to evacuate in an orderly way, because dogs have a very greatly heightened sense of those kinds of things.â - Michael Hingson
âWhen we started to run, I remember the first thought I had was, God, I can't believe you got us out of a building just to have it fall on us. And when I thought that, I immediately heard in my mind a voice that saidâas clearly as you're hearing me nowââDon't worry about what you can't control. Focus on running with Roselle and the rest will take care of itself.â I felt this absolute calm and certainty that if we worked together, Roselle and I would be fine.â - Michael Hingson
âThere are a lot of things that happen to us that we don't necessarily have any control over. But what we absolutely and totally have control over is how we deal with it and how we react to it.â - Michael Hingson
âWe need to learn how to listen to God, and we need to recognize that all the answers that we need are always available to us if we only really look for them.â - Michael Hingson
âWhen something tragic happens, you are in shock. And your trauma⊠you can't breathe. You go into hiding. There's so much shame involved. And there's literally nobody to talk to.â - Eve Selis
âIf I did not believe in God and have my faith, I would not be here right now. It was the only thing that got me through.â - Eve Selis
âIt's a spiritual job to be a musician, and music connects us to something bigger than us, and I believe that it's the closest thing to the divine that we have.â - Eve Selis
âI can tell you that there is nothing more powerful that you can do for somebody who is hurting than to pray for them or send them a positive thought or text them, âI love you.â That's a prayer.â - Eve Selis

This week, we explore stories of service from two guests who have made it their lifeâs work to help others.
Dr. Ming Wang is a renowned, cutting-edge laser eye surgeon who grew up with a dad in medicine, so it was ingrained in him from an early age to help people. Dr. Wang shares his incredible life experiencesâincluding how he narrowly escaped a life of hard labor while living in Chinaâhow his atheist worldview was shaken while in medical school, and how he now helps people living in darkness see light for the first time.
Raeanne Newquist works in marketing for Mercy Ships, an international charity which consists of two state-of-the-art hospital ships that bring hope and healing to the people of Africa who lack access to safe and reliable healthcare. Raeanne shares the transformations sheâs seen in patients not only physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well.

Interview Quotes:
âIn 1982, with $50 borrowed from a visiting American professor, with a Chinese English dictionary, I came to America, even though I did not know the language, and even though I did not know anyone, even though I was very poor. But I was happy because I was free.â - Dr. Ming Wang
âFrom a very young age, I was imprinted [with] the attitude of working hard, studying hard for knowledge, and also the heart to help others.â - Dr. Ming Wang
âI realize that science is still important and necessary, but not sufficient. I realize there's science giving me the tools. But a faith in Christ gives me a purpose for what I'm going to use the tools for.â - Dr. Ming Wang
â[Mercy Ships] is really an extraordinary community to be a part of because our crew come from all over the world. At any given time, there's over fifty nations represented on board our vessels. So it is this multicultural, Jesus-loving community that all come together with one purpose, and that is to bring hope and healing to the world's forgotten poor.â - Raeanne Newquist
âI think the healing oftentimes comes through the surgery, but it also comes through the emotional healing that these people who've been outcasts receive when we look them in the eye and we hug them and touch them and tell them they're valuable and they're worthy.â - Raeanne Newquist

Interview Quotes:
âActing has always been that comfort for me and that is the true passion for me that I don't think I'll ever get away from or stop. And I'm thankful that I still love it to this day and that I'm able to continue to do what I love to do.â - Tahj Mowry

âWe're called to die every day to our flesh, to ourselves, and to surrender to Christ daily, to take up our crosses daily. It's not just like a one time thing. It's a choice that we should make every day.â - Tahj Mowry
âI think an attitude of gratitude, a heart of thankfulness, is where worship begins. If we stay thankful, we're never ungrateful.â - Tahj Mowry

âPeople are listening to music and it is really changing lives. And I'm grateful that God saw fit to use me because I'm nowhere near perfect. I really have such a long way to go in my walk, in my journey. But I'm grateful. And I'm honored that God decides to use me in the way He does.â - Melvin Crispell III

This week, we have the privilege of hearing from Dr. Alan Weissenbacher, the managing editor of the journal Theology and Science and a teaching pastor in Berkeley, California. Deriving from his work with those who struggle with addiction, he illustrates how we can harness the power of neuroscience to change our habits, emphasizing the importance of replacing negative thoughts with positive ones, and how our focus can reshape our brain's pathways, which includes the disciplines of prayer and studying Scripture.
Later in the episode, we'll hear from Carolyn Weber, an acclaimed author, speaker, and professor who experienced a profound spiritual awakening during her time at Oxford University. Initially an agnostic, Carolyn's encounters with diverse Christian communities and her thorough reading of the Bible led her to embrace Christianity. Her memoir and its subsequent film adaptation chronicle her journey from skepticism to faith.

Interview Quotes:
âIf I didn't have those years at the Denver Rescue Mission, I wouldn't have been inspired to research the brain and how God designed that brain to learn and grow. And then by knowing that, how I could improve rehabilitation programs and help people improve their spiritual lives in the church as a whole.â - Dr. Alan Weissenbacher
âReplacing unhealthy thoughts with healthy ones impacts the brain's structure and function. Replace the problem thoughts with good ones, turning yourself in that direction.â - Dr. Alan Weissenbacher
âDon't pray to the problem. Pray to get the solution.â - Dr. Alan Weissenbacher
âIn a way, I didn't realize how much that template of my earthly father influenced any concept of a heavenly one.â - Carolyn Weber
âI think that those earlier life experiences in which I had felt very cherished and lovedâbut that the rug had been pulled out from under meâshaped my earlier initial views of faith in that it was very difficult to trust anyone but myself. I think sometimes we don't want to admit the things that hurt the most.â - Carolyn Weber
âI began to realize that faith and intellect are not opposites. They're not incompatible.â - Carolyn Weber
âOur souls are restless, our hearts are restless, until they find their home in God, and I identified with that longing.â - Carolyn Weber
âHis love for us, it just endures. And that's still incredibly mind-blowing and soul-filling.â - Carolyn Weber

This week, we are delighted to have Sarah Kroger, a talented singer/songwriter and worship leader from Nashville, Tennessee. Sarah shares the early days of her creative exploration while facing bullying, and how when she attended a transformative youth conference, she realized that faith could be something that was alive in your life, not just a box to be checked off on Sundays.
Later in the episode, weâll hear from Clare McCallan, an accomplished author and creative director of St. Joseph's Home for Artisans in Boston. Clare shares her experience of taking a leap of faith, banding together with the local artist community, and restoring an old convent to become a vibrant place that nurtures and cultivates young artists.

Interview Quotes:
âI refused to sing in front of my family for years. I just kind of locked away this gift and threw away the key and was like, I will never, ever sing in front of anybody. It'll just be something that I do for myself.â - Sarah Kroger
âI felt like God was lovingly tapping me on the shoulder and just saying, âSarah, I gave you this gift not just for yourself. I gave you this for my kingdom. I gave you this gift for my glory. And by you hiding it, it's not doing anyone any favors. So will you step out in faith? Will you say yes to me?ââ - Sarah Kroger
âIn a lot of ways, it's like being being able to create spaces where people feel safe enough to come to God just as they are, and feel safe enough to bring their questions and whatever they're walking through into a worship set, into a session that we're having, into whatever it is that we're doing, to be able to foster that kind of environment through music.â - Sarah Kroger
âIf we can't be brutally honest with God, then who can we be honest with?â - Sarah Kroger
âWe are never alone. He says, âI am with you always.â That's a promise of God, even in the midst of the darkness.â - Sarah Kroger
âMy life has been much happier ever since I've decided to just go all in on the way God made me and just live in pure creativity, both in my personal life and in my professional life.â - Clare McCallan
âEverybody wants the product, nobody wants the process. We serve a God born in a manger. Humble beginnings are not a bad thing.â - Clare McCallan
âGod has equipped you with a unique set of gifts and a power for prolific love to create things that will change your world, the world around you, and the world as a whole. And your gifts as a craftsman, your ability to create, has the power to save souls around you. Your witness matters. Your giftsâeven if you aren't aware of themâmatter, and the world needs what only you can create.â - Clare McCallan

If there is one thing we all desire as human beings, it is to be knownâtruly, deeply knownâand loved just as we are. Psalm 139 says âYou have searched me, Lord, and you know me⊠you are familiar with all my ways,â reminding us that we can experience the joy of being known to our core when we look to the Lord.
Ainsley Britain is an Enneagram coach who delves into how we were individually and uniquely made by God, and how we can apply the knowledge of how we were created to our relationships with othersâespecially while navigating the challenges of high school. Ali Gilkeson is a member of the beloved band Rend Collective, which was initially designed as a welcoming place for people who didnât always feel like they belonged in the church. Through recognizing our individual roles in life, Ali shares how a raw, honest relationship with God can help us find our way home.

âOne of the things I love about the Enneagram, specifically how it relates to teens, is that not only do you understand your strengths and weaknesses, but you understand the motivations behind your actions.â - Ainsley Britain
âIf we can have the knowledge and understanding that all of the root fears, the root motivations, the root trauma, all of these wounding childhood messages can be healed with the Lord. And I believe that the Enneagram is just that helpful tool to kind of uncover that.â - Ainsley Britain
âI think it's so important to connect with God daily because just like any of your other relationships, that's where the depth is. That is where the intimacy is. It's how you maintain and foster a friendship with the Lord.â - Ainsley Britain
âAll we care about is connection with God and connection with each other in a real, authentic way.â - Ali Gilkeson
âAuthentic worship isn't really even about the sound of a song. It's about the state of your heart.â - Ali Gilkeson
