    Part 1: Trusting God With Your Love Story | Singleness & Dating with Kayla Wilson

    In Part 1 of this special relationship series, Kayla shares how God used some of the most unexpected seasons of her life to prepare her for the love story she couldn't yet see. From spending a year on The World Race to walking through the devastating loss of her family home during the Colorado fires of 2020, Kayla reflects on the lessons God taught her about trust, surrender, identity, and dependence on Him during her season of singleness. Looking back, she can now see how those experiences shaped her heart and prepared her for the dating season that eventually led her to meeting her husband, Gabe. Together, we discuss how singleness can be one of the most valuable preparation seasons of your life when viewed through God's perspective rather than the world's. We share practical advice on how to steward this season well, pursue personal growth, and deepen your relationship with the Lord instead of simply waiting for the next chapter to begin. We also dive into what it looks like to navigate Christian dating in today's culture. From the biggest lies society tells us about relationships to recognizing red flags and green flags, we discuss why dating should be viewed as an intentional evaluation process rather than a game. We also share practical wisdom for setting healthy boundaries, pursuing purity, and honoring God while getting to know someone. Whether you're single, dating, or hoping for a relationship one day, this episode is full of encouragement, biblical wisdom, and practical tools to help you trust God with your love story.

    The Lie of “Used Goods” and the Truth of My Identity in Christ | Jaci Marshall

    In this episode, Jaci shares her powerful testimony of walking through pornography addiction, abusive relationships, heartbreak, and years of placing her identity in guys instead of God.

This conversation is raw, honest, and full of hope for anyone who has wrestled with shame, insecurity, addiction, relationship wounds, or feeling unworthy of love. Jaci’s story is a reminder that no past is too messy for God to redeem and no person is too far gone for healing. 🤍

    Trusting God When the Waiting Is Hard | Frannie Fulton

    In this episode, we sit down with Frannie Fulton — a mom, daycare provider, and youth pastor alongside her husband — to talk about what it looks like to trust God when the story isn’t finished yet.

    Arizona to Iowa: The Unexpected Beginning of God’s Bigger Plan | Katelyn Blomquist

    In this episode, Katelyn Blomquist shares how what started as plans they never expected — getting married young and moving from Arizona to Iowa in the very same month — became the beginning of God’s bigger purpose for their lives. Leaving behind family, comfort, and everything familiar felt risky, but what they found on the other side was life-changing. From a divine connection at a baseball game their very first week in Iowa to now serving on staff at their church and leading a young married life group together, Katelyn reflects on how radically God has transformed their story. She also opens up about her personal journey — from viewing God as a “911 call” in moments of desperation to discovering what it means to walk in daily relationship with Him. This conversation is about surrender, unexpected obedience, and learning that God’s plans are always greater than our own.
