Episode 73 – Wendy Speake

Wendy Speake joins me for episode #73 to talk about the trap of running to food and sugar instead of Jesus. What would you be willing to give up to experience the powerful presence of God in your life again? Many of us sign up for a physical detox program, thinking that if our bodies are healthier, then we’re healthier. But a healthy body doesn’t do us a lot of good if we’re spiritually malnourished.

Wendy shares the heart behind her 40-Day sugar fast movement and assures us that although this fast begins with us giving Jesus our sugar, it ends with Jesus giving us more of himself, the only thing that can ever truly satisfy our soul’s deep hunger. It’s time to break free from addictions , distractions or simply from the chains of complacency, friends! God is calling us out to call us up, and I’m confident He has a fresh Word of hope, healing, love and grace for you in today’s conversation with Wendy Speake.

Episode 69 – Mark Batterson

Mark Batterson joins me for episode #69 to talk about importance of making GRATITUDE and GENEROSITY a lifestyle. We all have challenges and brokenness… and sometimes the trials in our lives can keep us from seeing the ways God is at work IN us and the opportunities for Him to be at work THROUGH us. We often ask God to change the circumstances that are actually meant to change us and miss seeing His blessings in the blisterings. Mark believes the key to radically increasing your faith, joy and abundance can be found in these three words: FLIP THE BLESSING.

I’m confident you’ll be both challenged and changed as you listen by what the Bible has to say about the HISTORY and MYSTERY of God’s blessings.
