    EPISODE #19 "Judge Not" with guest Machelle McCulley

    Join Christy for this discussion with Machelle McCulley as they unpack the power of judgement- for good or bad- and how we can choose to look at people without judgement, hear their story, tell our story, and see the redemptive power of Christ at work in all of our lives. The old adage "you can't judge a book by its cover" is so true. Often, unlikely people make the strongest impacts in our lives, and we are all stronger together!

    Join us in this episode as we explore the heart of worship in music with worship leader Rhea Marshall. Authentic Worship - “Is it all a show?” This topic!!! How do you define true worship? Have worship leaders become entertainers? What’s the difference between authentic worship and performance? Rhea Marshall and I discuss this and so much more!

She is currently pursuing her PhD in Christian Worship from Liberty University. For 25 years Rhea has worked in both education and ministry.
