    Season 3, Episode 9- “The Foundry Effect: Faith, Family, and Breaking Cycles of Poverty”

    What does it look like to truly be the church beyond four walls? In this powerful episode of Church With No Walls, host Ryan Dearbone sits down with Shauna Wood, Executive Director of The Foundry in Bowling Green, Kentucky, to explore a transformative model of faith in action. Wood shares how The Foundry is breaking cycles of generational poverty through a holistic, “cradle-to-career” approach—serving children and families through education, community engagement, and spiritual development. From preschool programs and after-school care to family support services and community fitness initiatives, The Foundry is more than an organization—it’s a ministry rooted in relationships and long-term impact. Listeners will hear real stories of lives changed, barriers overcome, and families restored through intentional love and community partnership. This conversation highlights the power of meeting people where they are, planting seeds of faith early, and walking alongside families for lasting transformation.

    Season 3, Episode 5- “Called to Equip: Hearing God, Healing Women, and Living the Assignment”: Ambi Smith, Author/Minister

    In this powerful episode, host Ryan Dearbone sits down with minister, author, and nonprofit founder Ambi Smith for an honest conversation about calling, healing, and faith lived beyond the church building. Ambi shares the 13-year journey of Sisters in the Name of Christ, Inc., a women’s ministry dedicated to equipping and empowering women facing emotional, spiritual, and mental health challenges—especially in the wake of the pandemic. Together, they explore the dangers of silent suffering, the importance of self-care alongside prayer, and how unmanaged stress impacts both personal well-being and spiritual growth. Ambi opens up about hearing God’s call, walking in obedience, setting healthy boundaries, and modeling faith through everyday life, motherhood, and leadership. This episode is a reminder that healing is a lifelong process, faith requires intention, and transformation can happen anywhere—not just on Sunday mornings.
