What a God is a podcast rooted in transparency, testimony, and transformation. We share our lives, our faith journeys, and the seasons that shaped us — not the polished version, but the real one. As we grow, we’ll sit down with pastors, ministry leaders, and members of community outreach programs to hear their testimonies and shine a light on churches that are making a difference. Our mission is simple: help people feel less alone and more confident walking into a church home. Because when real people tell real stories, you see a very real God at work. Real Stories. Real People. Real God.

    Episode 6: Don’t Judge What You Don’t Understand: Loss, Faith, and Perspective

    In this episode of What a God, Mandie and Chasidy sit down with Tanya Carron Cormier, also known as Bryce’s Wife, for a powerful and heartfelt conversation about loss, faith, and perspective. Tanya shares how her personal journey through deep loss reshaped the way she sees not only her own life, but also the story of Job’s wife — a woman often judged without understanding what she may have been carrying. Through her experience, we explore how pain can change perspective, how quickly we can misunderstand others, and why compassion matters more than assumption. Tanya Carron Cormier is a devoted mother of two young adult children, a registered nurse, licensed professional counselor, and the insightful author of Don’t Judge Job’s Wife. She is a graduate of Cecilia High School in Cecilia, Louisiana, and Xavier University of Louisiana in Biology Pre-Med. She also earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing and Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Through both her personal journey and professional experience, Tanya brings empathy, wisdom, and depth to conversations around healing, relationships, and navigating life’s most challenging seasons. Her work reflects a passion for helping others find clarity, resilience, and purpose through life’s most challenging seasons. If this conversation resonates with you and you’d like to learn more, Tanya’s book Don’t Judge Job’s Wife is available here: 👉 https://tanyacormier.com Books purchased through her website also have the option to include a personalized autograph.

    Episode 5: Keeping God First in a Busy, Distracted life

    In this episode of What a God, hosts Mandie and Chasidy have an honest conversation about how to keep God first in a life that feels busy, noisy, and full of distractions. From everyday responsibilities to stress, social media, and mental overwhelm, we talk about what can quietly pull our focus away from God — and how to intentionally bring Him back to the center. If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, spiritually distracted, or distant, this episode is a reminder that staying close to God doesn’t require perfection — just intention. We’d also love to hear the testimonies of others and possibly share them on future episodes. If God has moved in your life and you’d like to share your story, email us at whatagodpodcast@gmail.com.

    Episode 1: Who We Are & Why We’re Here Human First, Not Just Christian

    In Episode 1 of What a God, we introduce ourselves — who we are, where we come from, and why we felt called to start this podcast. We share our faith backgrounds, our current church home, how our relationship with God has grown over time, and how this podcast came to life. Our heart is to create a space that is human first — real, honest, and rooted in faith. We want to help those who feel hesitant to walk into a church, those who carry church hurt, or those searching for where they belong, find a church home — no matter the denomination. We also want to shine a light on the good happening in local communities by highlighting churches and outreach programs that are truly making a difference. This isn’t about being perfect Christians. It’s about walking with a perfect God through real life. If you’ve ever felt unsure, unwelcome, or unseen — this space is for you. Come walk with us.
