EMB EP 69 | Body & Soul with Lisa Whittle

Season 2 · Episode 69

Monday, June 15, 2026 • Duration 53:46

We have a lot of feelings about our bodies. What we don't have (and what the church has largely failed to give us) is a theology of them.

Lisa Whittle has been a Bible teacher, bestselling author, and pastor's daughter her whole life. And even she admits she never thought to open Scripture and ask: what does God actually say about this from Genesis to Revelation, all the way through? It took a season of hearing women's stories, getting genuinely offended by the emptiness of the body-positivity movement, and a direct invitation from her publisher to finally take that deep dive. What she found changed her.

In this conversation, we explore why the church's silence on the body has been a teaching in itself, and not always a helpful one. We talk about Imago Dei and why knowing it intellectually isn't the same as living from it. We also unpack what "It is finished" means for the woman who still hates what she sees in the mirror, as well as for the woman who lives in chronic pain or disability and wonders if whole body theology is even available to her.

Spoiler: it is. Whole body theology leaves no body out.

We also go somewhere that doesn't get talked about enough… the particular weight that falls on women in ministry who step onto a platform and suddenly find themselves fighting a second invisible battle alongside the one they were actually called to fight.

This is a conversation that is equal parts honest, theological, and deeply freeing. Lisa's Bible study Body and Soul is linked in the show notes and it’s a MUST DO recommendation from me.

EMB EP68 | Prayer on Paper with Kim Pepper

Season 2 · Episode 68

Monday, June 8, 2026 • Duration 01:02:45

What if your “quiet time” doesn't have to look like everyone else's?

Kim Pepper never set out to be a creative faith coach. She was a blogger, a wife, a mom of three, until a blindside divorce in early 2020 left her sitting alone in a COVID lockdown, holding a life she didn't recognize and feelings she didn't know how to put into words. Journaling felt too exposed. Writing felt too raw. So she picked up a pen and started drawing instead.

What she discovered in the margins of a devotional book changed everything, not just about grief, but about the way God had always been trying to meet her.

In this conversation, Kim and I dig into what it means to connect with God through creativity, why so many women walk away from traditional Bible study feeling like failures, and how the fear of doing it wrong has kept a lot of us from showing up at all. Kim's answer is simple and quietly revolutionary: it's a prayer on paper. And there's no wrong way to pray.

Whether you've never been able to stick with a Bible study, or you've been doodling through church your whole life without realizing why, this one might be the permission slip you didn't know you needed.

EMB EP59 | Legacy & the Long Game with Lisa Harper

Season 2 · Episode 59

Monday, April 6, 2026 • Duration 58:18

Lisa Harper is one of my favorite humans on the planet, and I mean that. I've known her in the back rooms and on the platforms, through the hard things and the hilarious ones. She is exactly who you think she is. Exactly.

In this episode, we go deep on what it actually looks like to stay faithful in ministry for over thirty years without burning out. Lisa is honest about the self-dug pits, the shame, the orphan spirit she carried for decades, and how God met her in every single one of them. We talk about the difference between accruing knowledge about God and actually knowing Him, and why that distinction changes everything.

We also get into her adoption of Missy, what it means to hold trauma and redemption in the same hand, and how Lisa has built deep friendships across the theological spectrum in a culture that keeps trying to divide us into camps.

And because Lisa is Lisa, we end with her perfect beautiful day. Which involves Fritos, wake surfing, and a fire. You're going to want to plan that day for yourself immediately.

This one is a gift. I hope you feel that.

EMB EP58 | Your Peace Is More Important Than Your Point featuring Masi Willis

Season 2 · Episode 58

Monday, December 15, 2025 • Duration 51:54

Masi is back! We recorded this one in our Christmas pajamas from Deep Woods Refuge, and it's less like a podcast and more like two friends processing life over coffee. We started with a question I think about every holiday season: everyone's singing about peace on earth, but how do I get peace on me?

We talked about the difference between positional peace (knowing where we stand with Jesus) and practical peace (the day in, day out kind when things are a total cluster of mayhem). I shared about my dad, a man I would describe as a person of peace, and how he made it a practice of his life to be unoffendable. Not because he didn't have reasons to be offended, but because he cared more about his peace than he did about his point.

Masi walked us through the Peace Index and we landed on people, place, and purpose... and how assessing those things can help us show up differently this season. If you're heading into the holidays with a lot of opinions converging around one table, this one's for you. Life is hard, but God is good and He is making everything beautiful in its time. Peace.

EMB EP57 | Deep Woods Refuge: A Scott Family Update

Season 2 · Episode 57

Monday, November 24, 2025 • Duration 46:15

What happens when you become empty nesters and realize you need less house and more... something? In this deeply personal episode, I'm sharing the full story of our recent move, from endless house showings and a fallen-through contract to eating Chinese food on the floor and discovering what my soul was really crying out for.

This isn't just a story about downsizing or real estate. It's about what happens when God takes your practical plans and invites you into something much bigger. It's about learning that refuge isn't passive, it's active. And it's about taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase.

Whether you're in your own season of transition, feeling a low-grade restlessness you can't quite name, or wondering if it's okay to need something different than what you currently have, I hope this episode will encourage you to trust God's timing even when it makes absolutely no sense in the moment.

We'll have one more holiday episode airing in mid-December, and that will round out 2025's episodes. We'll look forward to seeing you in 2026!

EMB EP56 | Gratitude in the Gaps with Masi Willis

Season 2 · Episode 56

Monday, November 17, 2025 • Duration 56:36

This is a very special crossover episode airing on both the Everything Made Beautiful podcast and Masi Willis's Lead Like You Mean It podcast. Masi is one of my longest friends (we're talking almost 30 years), and this conversation is one of my favorites.

As we head into Thanksgiving, we knew we wanted to talk about gratitude, but not in the superficial way our culture often does during November. Instead, we get honest about what it looks like to practice gratitude when the holidays bring as much pain as they do promise. We talk about the gaps... the empty chairs, the relationships that aren't what we hoped, the seasons that feel more heavy than celebratory.

Masi and I both share vulnerably about our own Thanksgiving realities this year, the grief we're carrying, and how we're choosing gratitude as a daily formation rather than a seasonal performance. We also dig into how leadership coaching has transformed both of our lives, helping us know ourselves and lead ourselves well before we can truly lead others.

If you're walking into this season with a full heart or a broken one, or both at the same time, this conversation is for you. Pain and promise can coexist, and they don't have to be hopeless.

EMB EP55 | God Is Always Good, Even When His People Aren't with Yancy Wideman Richmond

Season 2 · Episode 55

Monday, November 10, 2025 • Duration 57:52

Today, my conversation is with my dear friend Yancy Wideman Richmond and honestly, it feels so necessary. I think it's because she's shining a light on something that’s often overlooked if you’re not experiencing it firsthand: the kids growing up in the fishbowl of ministry.

Yancy is a worship leader who's been creating music for kids and families for years. But lately, God has put something else on her heart that she couldn't shake… pastor's kids. The ones who sacrifice in ways no one asks them to. The ones who notice when their parent is different on stage than at home. The ones who get overlooked for discipleship because everyone assumes they're fine.

So she's launched Stained Glass Kids: a podcast for and about ministry kids. It's so helpful and needed and it's a case study handed to church leaders on a silver platter about how to better care for their staff families.

In our conversation, Yancy shares some of the wisdom she's already gleaned: Celebrate staff kids for the sacrifice they make. Remember that your staff members are someone's spouse, someone's parent. First-borns often carry pressure in hard seasons even when parents never asked them to. And kids absolutely notice when they're treated differently because of their last name.

This episode is a big bear hug for anyone who grew up in ministry. It's also a necessary conversation for anyone in church leadership who wants to do better.

EMB EP54 | Hidden Seasons, Holy Ground: On Creativity, Comparison, and Calling with Jenna and Zoe

Season 2 · Episode 54

Monday, November 3, 2025 • Duration 01:08:10

Today's conversation is with two of my favorite worship leaders, Jenna Nicholson and Zoe Kuhn, and I've been waiting to have this one for a while.

I first met Jenna and Zoe at a book release event I was producing at church, and they closed the night with a song called "New Thing" that absolutely slayed me. I thought it was just the season I was in that made it hit so hard, but turns out every time I hear it, it strikes me just as deeply. If you're in a season of transition, pain, confusion, or well… anything, this song is a balm to the soul.

Today, we’re talking about hidden seasons… the stretches of time when you’re wondering if God’s plan includes your dreams. Jenna shares about the question God keeps asking her: "If this doesn't happen the way you want it to, do you still think I'm good?" We talk about what it’s like to make music in Music City and how the comparison trap can’t rob you of your calling. There’s so much that’s helpful here.

These two exude joy, and this was a refreshing conversation on every level. Go right now and download their music. You won’t be disappointed, and you WILL be blessed.

EMB EP53 | Flourishing Hope with Leah Outten

Season 2 · Episode 53

Monday, October 27, 2025 • Duration 45:29

Today's conversation is about holding grief and grace at the same time, and how God meets us in crisis moments we never saw coming. My guest is Leah Outten, author of The 16th Year, a memoir about becoming pregnant at 16 and choosing open adoption for her daughter. Leah's story is marked by an unstable childhood and searching for love and acceptance in all the wrong places. But at 16, when she found out she was pregnant, that rock bottom moment became the turning point that drew her to the Lord.

We talk about how God has used her story, helping adoptive parents know how to love their child's birth mom well, and improving adoption relationships across the country. Leah also has a devotional called Flourishing Hope inspired by fireweed, a flower that pops up after forest fires, the first sign of life returning after devastation. That's what her story is. God can regrow a forest and beauty even when everything feels burned down to ashes.

If you or someone you know is facing an unplanned pregnancy or walking through the aftermath of adoption, Leah reminds us: remember what God has done in your life. If you haven't seen it yet, look to stories like hers. Hold onto hope.

EMB EP52 | The Promised Presence with Jenny Randle

Season 2 · Episode 52

Monday, October 20, 2025 • Duration 54:16

Today's conversation is one I didn't know I needed, a conversation about the Holy Spirit that's accessible, theological, and deeply practical.

My guest is Jenny Randle, author of The Promised Presence: An Introduction to Holy Spirit's Power and Authority. Jenny's journey took her from the heart of Hollywood editing DVD features for movies like Kung Fu Panda, to launching churches, raising middle schoolers (which she genuinely loves, and I'm here for that energy), and now writing books that help people understand the power of the Holy Spirit.

Here's what struck me most: Jenny is armed with confetti and creativity, yet she's also navigating a season of heartache and hardship, dealing with ongoing health challenges. She wrote this book while believing for healing, and her husband asked her the hardest question: "What if you don't get the happy ending you're wanting?" That tension, the already and not yet, is woven through this entire conversation.

We talk about the misconceptions so many of us carry about the Holy Spirit. For me, growing up, the Holy Spirit felt like someone with a ruler ready to smack my hand when I did something wrong. That's such a reductionist view of who He actually is. Jenny helps us see that the Holy Spirit isn't just our conscience, isn't an "it," and definitely isn't the ghost of Christianity just spooking around.

We dive into what it looks like to walk with Holy Spirit daily, not just in the big worship moments, but in the mundane moments of doing dishes, parenting your kids, and navigating the grocery store. The same power that raised Christ from the dead is living in us, indwelling us, when we're cooking dinner and leading meetings.

This conversation is for anyone who's felt weary, overwhelmed, or unseen by God. It's for the struggling, the weak, and those who wonder where God is. Jenny's encouragement? Slow down and see God. Receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Unwrap Him. Stop living distracted from His presence.
