Neighbors with Ali Parsons – Details, episodes & analysis

The alternate title to this episode was "swipe right" because that's how Lysa and Chaz's love story started. This episode is FULL of gems. We get an inside look at why dating is hard, how to work through trust issues (we all have them), why doing the work on yourself is worth it, and what we can do to trust God when we just straight up don't feel like it.

Their love story will give you hope. It's a reminder that there is beauty after the pressing, my friend. 

Lysa TerKeurst is a New York Times Bestseller Author, Speaker, and President of Proverbs 31 Ministries. She has written TONS of incredible books, but her newest one, I Want to Trust You, but I Don't, is a must read.

Have you ever wondered how to know and trust God's goodness while staring trauma and past hurt in the face? Ashley has walked the road of deep darkness and pain, but where scars remain are her testimony of God's goodness. She has used her pain as a platform to tell people about Jesus and the way she lives her life is a reflection of radical transformation. I cannot wait for you to hear this conversation.

What can I say about Dr. Asher other than his relationship with Jesus is what we should all strive for. He has tasted “success” by the world’s standard and through his 15+ year journey with cancer, he has truly found the secret of being content. We talk about worship through the valleys, the clarity a diagnosis like cancer can bring, and how every day we get to serve God is a gift. This is a man I look up to and I think you will too!

Gretchen and Rebecca are two of the most powerhouse women I know. They are seasoned moms who are launching teens to college this month and have so much wisdom on parenting. And it doesn’t include a list of ten steps to be a better parent. It’s full of grace and authenticity. Space for your kids to be themselves and to come alongside them to point them to our Heavenly Father. If you have teens, will have teens one day, or know a teenager, this one is for you. And to all our parents feeling graduation coming too fast, we see you and love you.

When God closes a door he once opened, what do you do? Do you move towards trust or towards control? Ben Harrell’s authenticity and vulnerability is REFRESHING to say the least. He talks about his journey of God giving him a specific calling to move overseas and be a missionary and then how that calling changed. How he walked the windy road of coping - both negative and positive - and learned to trust God again. There is so much to glean from his experiences and wisdom!

There are few people that radiate Jesus the way Maureen Kaderi does. Growing up in the third largest slum of Kenya, Maureen knows poverty more than most. Her story is one of redemption, restored hope, and a good God who never forgot her. We laugh, we cry, and we praise God. Maureen now runs a ministry called Mercy House Global, which rescues pregnant teens off the streets of Kenya to give them hope and a brighter future. This woman is moving mountains with not only her faith and actions, but her whole life. 

For more information on Mercy House Global, follow them @mercyhouseglobal

Grief comes in all different shapes, sizes, colors, timelines, and emotions. It can sneak up when you least expect it and leave you feeling lost and alone. Joye has walked this road of grief. She is walking it. But she does it with joy (and not just because that’s her literal name). This conversation is FULL of what it looks like to not get lost in loss. Joye is an actual ray of sunshine on a rainy day and even though a lot of her days have been rainy the last two years, she has received it as her God-given assignment to point people to the only true source of joy. And His name is Jesus. 

Also, Joye was featured this week in our church’s video story during service. Catch that incredible film piece here: https://youtu.be/rktwedOtVQQ?si=a5KA-Kehg-TcrYX_
