Today, I have a very special guest on the podcast: my sister. Listen in as Heather tells the story of my nephew Bobby’s near-fatal car accident in June 2017 and his miraculous road to healing in the aftermath of a devastating brain and spinal injury.

You’ll notice the sound quality is a little rough – because we recorded this in the hospital – and you may notice it’s a little longer than usual, because, well… we had a window and we took it. I hope you’ll be encouraged as you listen to our story of tears, triumph and testimony as we take listeners back to that terrible night and bear witness to the many miracles we have seen in the aftermath of tragedy. The takeaway? God can be trusted.

We serve a God of miracles!

More Than Just Making It  – When you’re trapped in a cycle of financial frustration, and you feel like you’ve tried everything only to end up with more month than money yet again, More Than Just Making It is your promise and pathway to thriving again.

Take it from someone who’s been there. Erin Odom grew up in the private schools and neatly manicured lawns of Upper Middle Class America, but was thrown into low-income living during the economic crash. She was a stay-at-home-mom, her husband was supporting the family on a teacher’s salary, and despite the fact that they had no debt to their name, they were scrambling to make ends meet. Suddenly Erin found herself standing in line for food stamps, turning down play dates because she couldn’t afford the gas, and ultimately walking into bankruptcy court in the eighth month of her third pregnancy.

More Than Just Making It tells the story of their breaking point, as well as the triumph of their comeback. It took hard work, creativity, and faith in God’s provision to reset their bank account as well as their hearts, but ultimately they found a new way to thrive and freedom from financial anxiety. You can do the same. Learn how Erin and her family saved enough money to put $30,000 down on a home, buy a minivan in cash, and begin sending their daughter to private Christian school. More Than Just Making It will encourage readers to rise above their circumstances, empower them with money-saving tips, and reimagine the good life as God designed it outside the myth of the American Dream.

The standard by which we measure offense as Christians needs to be re-calibrated, and fast.  We have lost our way, men and women of God! We have made an idol out of our right not to be offended.  Listen. Offense is a trap; a snare set by the devil to distract us from what really matters, and boy are we stepping on almost every trap the devil is setting right now. Listen in as I talk about an alternative.  It’s worth it!
