| Ep 346: From Gender Confusion to Freedom in Christ: Rebecca Massengale's Story | 20 Jun 2026 | 01:01:58 | |
Shanda sits down with Rebecca Massengale to discuss her journey from identity confusion, addiction, same-sex attraction, and spiritual darkness to finding lasting freedom and purpose in Jesus Christ. Rebecca shares how God pursued her through years of brokenness, the lies she once believed about herself, and the biblical truths that transformed her life. We also discuss how Christians can faithfully engage with those in the LGBTQ community with both truth and compassion, why discipleship is essential for lasting transformation, and how the church can better minister to those struggling with identity and sexuality. Whether you're personally wrestling with these issues, have a loved one who identifies as LGBTQ, or simply want to better understand how to navigate these conversations biblically, this episode offers hope, wisdom, and practical guidance.

| Ep 345: Is Self-Love Biblical? The Self-Love Conversation Christians Need to Have | 13 Jun 2026 | 01:09:12 | |
Is self-love biblical? After discovering a surprising verse in Proverbs 19:8, Shanda takes a deep dive into what Scripture really says about loving yourself. In a culture that constantly tells us to prioritize self-love, self-care, and self-acceptance, Christians must ask whether these messages align with God's Word. In this episode, Shanda explores the difference between cultural self-love and biblical wisdom, examines passages often used to support self-love, discusses how theologians have understood the concept throughout church history, and explains why Scripture consistently points us toward loving God first. You'll also hear a special Father's Day reflection as Shanda shares personal stories about her dad and the vital role fathers play in the lives of their children. If you've ever wondered whether self-love belongs in the Christian life—or if there's a better biblical framework for thinking about identity, purpose, and love—this episode is for you.

| Ep 336: Life After Life: What Happens When We Die? | with Philip DeCourcy | 11 Apr 2026 | 00:54:43 | |
What happens when we die—and are we truly prepared for what comes next? In this episode, I sit down with Pastor Philip DeCourcy to discuss his book Life After Life and the biblical reality of eternity. Together, we explore what Scripture teaches about heaven, hell, judgment, and the eternal destiny of every soul. In a culture that avoids the topic of death or redefines it through feelings and speculation, this conversation brings clarity, truth, and urgency. Philip helps us think biblically about what lies beyond this life and why what we believe now matters forever. We also talk about common misconceptions, the danger of cultural narratives about the afterlife, and how a right understanding of eternity should shape the way we live today. This episode will challenge you to examine your beliefs, anchor your hope in truth, and consider the most important question of all: Are you ready for eternity?

| Ep 246: Reading the Bible wrong, working for righteousness, and the book of Philippians | 13 Jul 2024 | 00:54:54 | |
There is a wrong way to read the Bible, which means there is a right way to read the Bible. Today, we are using the book of Philippians to show how to use the 5 W's and an H strategy to "til the ground" before reading any book of the Bible. We'll also look at Dr. Frank Turek's S.T.O.P. method for Bible study, and why the strategies you learned in elementary school are all you need to understand how to interpret your bible.

| Ep 242 Christianity isn't supposed to be comfortable | 15 Jun 2024 | 00:43:24 | |
Last month, a young Haitian missionary couple were killed in the field. A lot of people condemned them for being in a dangerous country where their lives were at risk, saying they had no business being there. The real question is: is Christianity comfortable? Are we supposed to pick and choose where to take the gospel as long as it's safe and we know it won't cost us anything? Shanda discusses the core of Christianity and why looking for comfortable Christiantiy is dangerous. We look at missionaries who gave their lives for the sake of Christ as well as what Paul said in his epistle to the churches about his own missionary journeys. This episode is both encouraging and convicting as we push past our comfort zone into the uncharted territory of uncomfortable Christianity.

| Ep 335: The Mirror We Choose: Truth, Flattery, and the Word of God | 04 Apr 2026 | 00:45:56 | |
In this episode, Shanda shares a personal (and relatable!) story from a fitting room that sparked a deeper spiritual question: Do we really want to see ourselves as we are, or as we wish we were? Just like mirrors with different lighting can change how we look, we often try to "adjust the lighting" in our spiritual lives—surrounding ourselves with messages, influences, and even interpretations of Scripture that make us feel better rather than show us the truth. But God's Word doesn't flatter. It reveals. Drawing from the book of James, we explore how Scripture acts as a mirror, exposing what's really in our hearts. And while that reflection can be uncomfortable, it's also the very thing God uses to transform us into the image of Christ. In this episode, we'll talk about:
So the question is: Will you choose the mirror that flatters you…or the one that transforms you?

| Ep 236: Modern family - technology, disfunction, and worldview formation | 04 May 2024 | 00:38:31 | |
Whatever is at the center of your life shapes you. The atmosphere of the home helps a child understand what is most important. Where does the family gather to talk and are free to create? Are more words texted on a device than to each other? Shanda talks about the center of the home before technology and why parents are losing ground when it comes to influencing their children to follow God. No family is perfect, and since we're all humans and descendents of Adam and Eve, every family is disfunctional in some way. However, that doesn't mean there isn't a design for the home that will shape and develope a biblical worldview in your family.

| The temple of God of old and today. The beauty of Immanuel, God with us | 03 Dec 2023 | 00:29:33 | |
God with man is what makes Christianity unique to any other religion. To dwell among us is the heart of God. In the Old Testament, we see David's desire to build a house for God. But even David understood that no house could hold the presence of God. When Jesus walked the earth, God took on flesh and dwelt among us. The angel proclaimed, "Immanuel, God with us." It was a concept too great to fathom. Now that Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father, His desire is to still dwell among us, but the temple is not the same.
