Worthy of the Calling Podcast Tour + Exciting New Bible Study

Podcasts are warm and inviting like a steaming cup of Earl Grey tea on a brisk fall afternoon.  They offer a glimpse inside another soul, an invitation to rest awhile in the company of new friends. I'd love to have my own podcast someday. But until that day comes, I'll continue to find great joy in visiting with the talented podcast hosts who graciously invite me onto their shows.

Faith-filled podcasts are warm and inviting like a steaming cup of Earl Grey tea on a brisk fall afternoon

A simple invitation to rest awhile in the company of new friends.

I’d love to have my own podcast someday.

But until that day comes, I’ll continue to find great joy in visiting with the talented podcast hosts who graciously invite me onto their shows.

It’s sort of like being invited to a new friend’s home for coffee & conversation.

They do all the cleaning, baking, and coffee making, and all I have to do is show up and enjoy their hospitality.

Such a gift!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say launching my new Worthy of the Calling Bible study has been an exhausting endeavor.

Endless hours spent studying, writing, editing, designing graphics, collaborating with creative partners, and organizing the launch team.

Yes. Exhausting.

But also exhilarating!

And one of my very favorite parts of launching the study was making guest appearances on several podcasts.

Even though the purpose of my podcast tour was to share the Worthy of the Calling Bible study, I was blown away by how unique each conversation was.

I feel truly blessed to share this collection of diverse and inspiring podcast interviews with you today.

Practical Family Podcast

Join me for this heart-filled interview with Jenn from the Practical Family Podcast as we discuss simple tips for finding time to study the Word of God.

Making time to study anything can be challenging, especially in a season of raising young children. But the Bible is full of practical help and inspiration awaits when you make time to dive in and get to know the God who created you for amazing things. If you don’t know where to start, find someone who’s a few steps ahead of you and ask them to journey along with you.

I pray our conversation encourages you to carve out time for Bible study.

Halfway There Podcast

When Eric and I finished recording this interview, the first thing I said to him was “You asked me questions about my personal faith journey that no one has ever asked me before. You helped me see my own story in a whole new light. I need to listen to our conversation again and take notes, so I don’t forget all the good things God has done in my life!”

Never have I ever had such an open and vulnerable conversation with someone outside of my family. This podcast interview is not for everyone. It’s raw and rough and deep. But if you want to know how I got to be where I am, this is my story.

In this episode of the Halfway There Podcast, Eric and I talk about:

  •  How I stumbled on blogging and discovered my calling
  • My traditional Christian family upbringing and Christian school
  • The mentor who changed how I view God’s calling on my life
  • Waking up to the spiritual battle through a Bible study
  • The water heater that nearly killed me (no joke!)
  • Why helping Christian understand the Bible means so much to me

I pray our conversation encourages you and helps you break free from the affirmation trap.

Slices of Life Podcast

This 40-minute conversation with Kimberly Amici and Elise Daly Parker of the Slices of Life Podcast is a laid-back, honest look at our tendency to over-perform and a nod to the powerful work God can do in our hearts when we are stripped of our ability to perform.

God often allows brokenness in our lives to draw us into His arms and teach us a new way to live. At least, that’s what He did for me!

I pray our conversation and my personal testimony is an encouragement to you.

Finding Joy Podcast

In this interview, Lauren and I discuss how  a smaller life can actually be a better, more powerful life. We share how we are bot learning to find beauty in seasons of unexpected change and joyfully embrace God-ordained detours.

In this episode of the Finding Joy Podcast, Lauren and I talk about:

  • How a smaller life can actually be a better, more powerful life.
  • The beauty of change and how to embrace detours.
  • How to redirect our lives around living for God’s glory
  • How to make our relationship with God change for the better
  • How God uses detours to produce good fruit in us.

I pray our conversation encourages you to walk in freedom and trust and obey God no matter what comes your way.

Not Quite Supermoms Podcast

This interview with Becki Rogers, of the Not Quite Supermoms Podcast, is all about my crazy, unexpected homeschooling adventure and how graciously God has provided for me in the midst of it all.

Honestly, I’m still amazed at this unexpected turn of events and wrapping my brain around this new adventure.

In this episode of the Not Quite Supermoms Podcast, Becki and I talk about:

  • How I became an unexpected homeschooler
  • How God is filling in the gaps in my own life
  • How I’m learning to surrender my ministry to God
  • How it’s possible to be fearful and obedient at the same time
  • How even when you make the right decision, it’s not always easy

I pray our conversation encourages you to put your family first, even when it hurts.

I want to personally invite you to join me on this 31-day journey through the book of Ephesians.

Together we will learn about our identity in Christ and the spiritual wealth we have access to as daughters of God.
