How Prison Ministry Changes Lives on Both Sides of the Bars with Heather Rice-Minus of Prison Fellowship - Episode 1093
When we hear the word serve, we immediately start thinking about all the things we should be doing, the places we should be volunteering and donating our clothes, serving meals, and being the hands and feet of Jesus. But what if serving starts with paying attention to the people God has already placed around us? What if we start by asking where there’s a need and how God might want to use us to meet it? Today, I get to talk with Heather Rice-Minus, who is the President and CEO of Prison Fellowship, an organization that works to restore those affected by crime and incarceration through the Gospel. Heather is going to help us think about what it looks like to serve people in our own communities, especially people we might not naturally think about or even know how to reach. I think this conversation is going to help us see our cities a little differently and maybe even recognize an opportunity to serve that we’ve been walking past. I’ve gotten to serve in prison ministry the last couple of years and it has truly changed my life. . . . .

Is Restoration Possible After Betrayal? with Carl and Laura Lentz- Episode 1090
Carl and Laura Lentz walked through infidelity on a really public platform and since 2020 have put in the work towards restoration, redemption, and healing. When they realized there weren’t many books for couples walking through infidelity and betrayal, they felt the invitation to not only tell their story, but share the practical steps that have helped them stay together and heal. I realize this may not be your story or your struggle, but sin is something we all deal with and secret sin specifically is not something we’re going to play around with around here. I admire Carl and Laura’s vulnerability and honesty to share what this has looked like for them. It’s really brave and I’m really grateful. If you know a couple that could benefit from reading Overcoming Infidelity or maybe that’s you - go grab a copy of their book. . . . . Have you watched my talk show, I Gotta Ask?!

The Power and Beauty of Corporate Worship with Dwan Hill- Episode 1089
There’s no better person to help us finish talking about this spiritual rhythm than my own worship pastor from my church here in Nashville. Dwan Hill is not only the worship pastor at Cross Point Church, but he’s both a grammy and dove award winner and the founder of the Choir Room, which we’re going to talk about today. Worship is something we can do anywhere, anytime, but I asked Dwan today why corporate worship and gathering together matters. And you’re going to be so encouraged by his response. I love his heart for the Church and hearing the way he’s been uniquely gifted to help lead us all as we glorify God. We’ve even got a worship practice guide for you that’s available over at spirituallystronger.com today. It just has some practical ideas of ways to connect with God in worship that may fit your personality—whether you prefer worship through music or art or words or nature. . . . .

I bet you’ve picked up one of them when you needed the right words during a major life moment or even just on a Monday morning when you need help connecting with God. Today, we’re talking about the way poetry and liturgies and some of these quieter methods of worship are just as powerful and for a lot of people - their preferred way of worship. As always, we’re unpacking the conversation even more over at SpirituallyStronger.com - so head over there as we talk about the way we connect with God through words and writing. . . . .

From Addiction and Shame to Radically Restored with Stephen McWhirter- Episode 1087
Stephen McWhirter is here today and we’re talking about what it looks like to worship even when shame is telling you that you don’t belong in the room. Stephen has a story of radical restoration. He went from hating Jesus, battling addiction, and feeling completely beyond saving to becoming a worship leader, songwriter, and someone who now gets to tell people all over the world that Jesus is real. He’s also the author of Radically Restored and the songwriter behind a song you probably hear often: “Come Jesus Come.” I think Stephen’s story is going to remind you that worship isn’t something we earn the right to do. It’s a response to the grace we’ve already been given. . . . . Order your copy of Don’t Let That Hold You Back wherever you love to buy books! . . . .
