Many of you often ask us to talk about the topic of authority. What does it look like? Where to I exercise it? How much is “too much?” Well, friends, if you were one that asked, you are going to love this. In this episode, Leigh & Bethany sit down with Lisa Bevere - wife, mom, grandma, preacher, author, general in the faith - & talk through a Biblical perspective of authority. Lisa is no stranger to this conversation, & she does not hold back when it comes to identifying the enemy & drawing the line on matters of sin.

They’re gonna remind you to never forget you are called, & there is a purpose in your current season.

While Leigh is in Israel, Holly and Bethany hijack the podcast to intro season 4 by talking through transition. What do we do when the Lord leads us to a certain place, and then asks us to pivot?

“Hello. My name is Marquita, and I am an introvert.” Are you someone who is a little hesitant to say “yes” to something out of your comfort zone? In this episode, we chat with our girl, Marquita Anthony, and catch up as she shares her story of picking up everything and moving across the country… All because she said “yes” to the Lord. You’ll be encouraged and reminded that when you say “yes” to God, He will always handle His part and provide exceedingly and abundantly more than you could ask for.

Do you feel dissatisfied, tired or hurt with where you are in ministry or life? Can we be friends and ask you the question: What’s the loudest voice in your life right now? Are you open to conviction and correction? Have you struggled with fear of man or pride or a religious spirit? In this impromptu conversation, Natalie Runion (the woman behind Raised to Stay) joins us again, and we talk about a WHOLE LOT… but mostly how we are passionate about getting into the secret place, hearing His voice, and truly remembering what our mission is as believers so we don’t find ourselves dissatisfied in Him. If you need some encouragement, don’t miss this impromptu episode.

Has your story been sprinkled with hurt or disappointment? In ministry and life, we can sometimes find ourselves striving for a space rather than resting in His presence. In this episode, we talk with Natalie Runion - the voice behind Raised to Stay. Natalie shares her story of how God has taken the hard times in her walk with Him, and allowed her to plant her feet and see it through.

Rest. Why is it so hard? Ministry doesn’t always lend to a healthy practice of rest. Without it, burn out is sure to happen. In this episode we continue our conversation with Amber Peairs of Gateway Church in Dallas, TX, on the struggle in the importance of rest.

How many times have you thought: “How long can I really do this?” In this episode, we sit down with Amber Peairs of Gateway Church in Dallas, TX, and discuss longevity in ministry.
