Discipleship Lessons from the Frontlines in Nigeria
Recently, I had the opportunity to chat with Brad Brandon, CEO of Across Nigeria. His firsthand account of ministering to persecuted Christians and reaching Muslims in northern Nigeria was truly eye-opening. In our conversation, Brad shares the dangers Christians face under Sharia law and from extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISWA. Yet God is still at work! We discuss the schools Across Nigeria that have been built to serve Muslim communities and build relationships. Brad also tells stories of new converts who lose everything when they turn to Jesus. You'll be inspired by his faith and insight into discipleship that we can apply in our own context. I left with a greater appreciation for religious freedom and a challenge to seek out my own "Nigeria"—the purpose God has called me to. What stuck out to you most from Brad's experience in northern Nigeria? What might your "Nigeria" be right now? Click the link below to check out Across Nigeria and sign up for their newsletter. Then let me know your takeaways in the comments!

Uncovering Your God-Given Purpose: A Conversation With with Pastor Cory Rosenke
I recently had the pleasure of chatting with Pastor Cory Rosenke on my podcast about finding purpose and fulfillment through understanding our spiritual identity. Cory shared incredibly insightful perspectives on topics like overcoming destructive habits with faith, the benefits of homeschooling children through a spiritual lens, and what the "soul" means from a Christian viewpoint. I loved Cory's casual, laidback energy as he unpacked concepts in a way that makes you feel like you're just talking with a friend. He has a gift for simplifying complex ideas without watering down their meaning. A few big takeaways: - We often reduce our identity to physical beings, when we have non-physical souls with unique purposes placed in us by God. - Our "soul cravings" for things like security, identity, independence, significance, and innocence can only be fully satisfied through connection with our Creator. - If we don't understand the spiritual side of who we are, we'll always feel dissatisfied no matter how much worldly success we achieve. Cory explains these ideas in such an engaging way using great illustrations and stories. I highly recommend giving this episode a listen if you wrestle with questions about finding meaning and purpose in life. Let me know what intrigues or resonates with you most after tuning in! Blessings to each of you.

Finding Freedom Through Faith: A Christian Perspective on Addiction
I recently had the pleasure of chatting with David Zailer, an author and addiction recovery specialist. As someone who struggled with alcohol, drugs, and other addictions for years, David has an incredible story of redemption that I think you'll find compelling and hopeful. In our conversation, David shares openly about his journey to sobriety after getting arrested, as well as the underlying issues he had to face along the way. I was particularly moved by his perspective on the value of community and accountability in the recovery process.

Standing Firm With Truth and Love: A Guide For Gender Challenges
I recently had the pleasure of chatting again with therapist Pamela Garfield-Jaeger about her incredible new book offering practical tips for families navigating gender distress. Pamela shares openly from her experience working with young people struggling with gender identity issues. I was shocked to hear that in one program, half the girls were identifying as trans! 😮 This opened Pamela's eyes to how mainstream transgender affirmation has become, often targeting vulnerable youth. In our conversation, Pamela compassionately challenges common myths.
