In this episode we're tackling a topic that isn't often spoken about in Christians circles (or certainly not enough), and that's porn. Pornography is a huge issue across the world and surprisingly, is rife within the church.
Here are some stats that might shock you:
• Every second 28,259 users are watching pornography on the internet
• Every second $3,075.54 is spent on pornography on the internet
• Every day 37 pornography videos are created in the US
• Every day 2.5 BILLION emails containing pornography are sent or received
• Every day 116,000 queries related to child pornography are received
• 25% of total searches on the internet are related to pornography
One study showed that 68% of church-going men and over 50% of pastors view porn on a regular basis. Of young Christian adults 18-24 years old, 76% were actively search for porn. Another study conducted that ruled out the "casual church-goers" found these stats to be lower, but you get the point - both inside and outside of the church, porn is a common issue.
In part 1 of this episode with Matt Cline, we discuss the the epidemic of pornography and sexual brokenness in our world.
Matt Cline is the founder and director of Restored Ministries, focused on leading men and women out of sexual brokenness and into a life of freedom and impact. Internationally known as a leading speaker and coach on Biblical sexuality, he has seen countless lives radically changed around the world.

In this episode we chat about what to do on those days where you feel discouraged. A few weeks ago, I started the week feeling so discouraged and flat for no apparent reason. I started recording with no real desire to put out any content, but I felt a shift as I started going through scripture. On the days where we feel flat, intentionally trusting God and standing on His word bring forth so much breakthrough and change.

Whether you're feeling discouraged about your work, marriage, ministry or any other situation, it's normal. We have to be able to talk about it and work through it in a biblical way. We all have days where we are down on ourselves and feel like we aren't achieving anything valuable - we need to ask ourselves "what does God say, who does He say I am, and how do I work through this?"

My goal is always to encourage you and point you back to Jesus - what does the word say? How can we trust God in times like this? How do we approach it with other people?

I hope it's a blessing for you, my friend!

Here's a video I recorded on dealing with disappointment:

In this episode we are talking about the topic of embracing radical obedience and answering God's call on your life. We are joined by Christa Spaeth who is the founder of Christa Joy Ministries, which was founded in 2022 when Minnesota-based author Christa received a compelling message from God.

In a prayer cabin called “Whisper,” He prompted her to write a seven-week devotional titled “Powerful Whispers." Since then, Christa’s eyes, heart, and ears were opened to more whispers, so that she may start fulfilling her new purpose of helping the hurting and share the love of Christ.

This blessed wife, mother of two, and businesswoman is passionate about living up to God’s plans for her every day. So much so that in 2022, she stepped down from her decades-long career as a Registered Dietitian at a large food manufacturing company to pursue the promptings of the Lord and encourage others in Christ.

Today, Christa owns and operates Christa Joy Ministries where she publishes her own books, writes encouragements and God whispers on her social media accounts. In addition, she does guest blog posts for various social media accounts.

This is without a doubt the most important message you'll ever hear, so PLEASE don't click away.


Many people celebrate Easter without actually knowing the real reason behind the season. We live our everyday lives not knowing our considering our final destination. How often do you think about what happens after death? Life is painstakingly short; like a vapour.


The reality, that many of us don't know, is that we are ALL sinners and we ALL fall short of the glory of God. Our sin separates us from our holy, pure, perfect and righteous God. God is a just judge and cannot leave sin unpunished. Romans 6:23 talks about how the wages of sin is death, so we are all deserving of the death penalty.


Many people think that their good works will save them, but this couldn't be further from the truth. We cannot earn our way back into right relationship with God; we are all sinners in need of a savior. BUT GOD.


God did not leave us in this state of being eternally separated from the Father. John 3:16 says “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”


God loved the world so much, that He gave His one and only Son Jesus as a sacrifice, to take on the punishment that we deserved. And THIS is the good news; THIS is the gospel of Jesus Christ.


Jesus died for our sins, but he also rose again and conquered the grave. Salvation is a free gift from God that is ours to accept. Romans 10:9 says "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."


So, what are you going to do with this good news?

In part 2, we go into more detail about how to have victory over rejection, practical steps for moving past it and discovering your true identity in Jesus. We also discuss Melissa's new book "The Reality of Rejection" which is now available in stores and online!

I am so excited to share part 2 of this conversation with you and I hope it continues to be informative, encouraging and provides some insight into why we may be facing some of the issues that we are today.
