Sneak Peek of Annie's new show I Gotta Ask!
We wanted to give you a sneak peek of the brand new talk show I Gotta Ask with Annie F. Downs. This episode explores the question, "How does our faith inform our finances?" For more info on how you can watch the WHOLE season of I Gotta Ask, visit https://www.anniefdowns.com/i-gotta-ask/ If you want to watch this - check it out on your Spotify app, or YouTube! Can you trust God and still check your bank account five times a day? In this straight-talking, soul-meets-strategy conversation, Annie F. Downs is joined by BeautyBlender Founder and Owner Rea Ann Silva, financial expert Anthony O’Neal, and Annie’s friend Kelley — who asks the questions we’re all thinking but rarely say out loud. From tithing when you feel broke to navigating ambition vs. contentment, this episode dives into the real tension between faith and financial survival. And here’s the twist: money conversations don’t have to feel heavy, they can actually be freeing, and even fun. Packed with practical tools, hard truths, and hope you can actually use, this conversation will challenge how you think about money — and empower you to handle it with wisdom, freedom, faith, and a splash of humor.

The Urgent Call to Confession, Conviction & Compassion with Aaron Graham- Episode 1060
Pastor Aaron Graham is the founder and lead pastor of a thriving, multicultural church in Washington, D.C. representing more than 80 nations, called The District Church, and he’s spent years helping people navigate faith and culture. He’s also the author of a brand new book called Unshakable Faith, where he talks about how to stand firm in what we believe, even when everything around us feels like it’s shifting.

Join us over on spirituallystronger.com as well where we have a confession practice guide for you to use. This is just a simple download that will help you think through what may need to be brought into the light.
